SFP transceiver BlueOptics TN-SFP-TX-BO 1250 Mbit/s 100 m Silver

The BlueOptics TN-SFP-TX-BO is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver module designed for 1000BASE-T applications. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s, a maximum transmission distance up to 100 m over appropriate cabling, and is housed in a silver metal casing. The module operates at 3.3 V input voltage and weighs approximately 2 g, making it compact and suitable for dense networking environments where space and weight are considerations.

Advantages

The BlueOptics TN-SFP-TX-BO offers compatibility with standard SFP ports while maintaining the small footprint of an SFP module. Its metal housing provides mechanical durability and thermal conduction. With a rated data rate of 1250 Mbit/s and support for links up to 100 m, the transceiver meets common requirements for gigabit Ethernet and related protocols. Low weight and standard electrical characteristics simplify installation in switches, routers and other networking devices that accept SFP modules.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics TN-SFP-TX-BO by inserting it into a compatible SFP port on your switch, router or other network device while the host device is powered down or following the device manufacturer's hot-swap guidelines. Connect the appropriate copper cabling or patch panel to the RJ45 interface (or the host port that accepts the SFP), ensuring correct Cabling Category for the target distance and data rate. Verify link status on the host device and confirm that the transceiver is recognized and negotiating the expected speed. Ensure the host device supports SFP modules and the necessary features such as digital diagnostics if required.

Recommendations

Use high-quality Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6A cabling and proper patch panels for reliable 1000BASE-T links up to 100 m. Verify compatibility with the host device and confirm that any required digital diagnostic features are supported by your equipment. Handle the module carefully, avoiding electrostatic discharge and contamination of contacts; store unused transceivers in anti-static packaging.
