SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 10071H-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 10071H-BO SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber optic interface designed for short-range network links. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and an LC (UPC) fiber connector, this silver-coloured SFP form factor module enables 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over multimode fiber up to 550 m. Its small size and 20 g weight make it suitable for installation in switches, routers or media converters that accept SFP modules.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver offers a standardized SFP form factor that simplifies hot-plug installation and replacement. The module supports a clear 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet interface and uses an LC (UPC) connector for broad compatibility with common fiber cabling. With a rated operational distance of up to 550 m it is suitable for campus and data center interconnects where short to medium reach fiber links are required. The compact, lightweight design minimizes space and weight impact in rack-mounted or chassis-based systems.

Suitable for

• Short- to medium-range fiber optic links in campus and building networks
• Upgrading switches or routers to add SFP fiber connectivity
• Connections between network equipment and media converters
• Data center top-of-rack or access aggregation links

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver firmly into an available SFP slot of a compatible switch, router or media converter while the device is powered down or following the equipment manufacturer's hot-swap procedure. Connect a fiber optic patch cable with LC (UPC) connectors to the module, ensuring correct polarity for transmit and receive channels. Configure the network device for the required link speed and duplex settings if manual configuration is needed. Monitor link LEDs and device logs to confirm successful link establishment.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber of the appropriate specification and high-quality LC (UPC) patch cords to achieve the stated 550 m reach. Handle the module and fiber connectors carefully to avoid contamination; keep protective dust caps in place when connectors are not in use. Verify compatibility with the host device's SFP slot and firmware to ensure full operation.
