SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 33211-100-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 33211-100-BO SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber optic interface designed for use in networking equipment that accepts SFP modules. It provides a single-channel optical connection with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and a small, silver SFP form factor that fits standard SFP ports. With a lightweight construction of approximately 20 grams and a specified mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, this transceiver is intended to deliver consistent optical link performance in switching and routing environments.

Advantages

The module combines a standard SFP form factor with a modest data rate suitable for legacy and industrial fiber links. Its compact size and low weight make installation and replacement straightforward without requiring additional mounting hardware. The declared MTBF indicates an expected long operational lifetime, supporting stable connectivity and reduced maintenance frequency. The silver finish provides clear visual identification in mixed hardware environments.

Suitable for

• Short- to medium-distance fiber optic links in enterprise and industrial networks
• Switches, routers and media converters with SFP ports
• Applications requiring 1250 Mbit/s single-channel optical connections
• Maintenance and upgrade of existing fiber infrastructure using standard SFP transceivers

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP small form-factor pluggable
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Form factor: standard SFP module
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg (20 g)
• Color: silver
• Reliability: mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Ensure the host device supports third-party SFP modules and that the optical fiber type and connector are compatible with the transceiver. Power down or follow hot-swap procedures for your specific equipment before inserting the SFP module into the SFP port. Align the module with the port and push gently until it latches; if the device supports hot swapping, insert while powered on according to the manufacturer's instructions. Connect the appropriate fiber cable to the transceiver, verify optical link status via the host device management interface, and monitor error counters and link indicators during initial operation.

Recommendations

Keep dust caps on the fiber connector when the module is not in use, avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii, and operate the module within the equipment's environmental specifications to maintain performance and longevity.
