SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 551093-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 551093-BO SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber optic interface designed for 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and a maximum transmission distance of up to 20,000 m over suitable single-mode fiber. The module features an LC fiber connector, a lightweight silver housing (approx. 20 g) and is compliant with CE, FCC and RoHS standards. With an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, this SFP transceiver is intended for insertion into compatible switches, routers and media converters to add fiber connectivity where required.

Advantages

The transceiver combines a small form factor with industry-standard LC connectivity and supports long-distance fiber links up to 20 km. It is lightweight and designed for hot-pluggable SFP slots, simplifying installation and replacement. Regulatory compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS indicates adherence to safety, electromagnetic and environmental standards, while the specified MTBF provides an indication of long-term reliability for continuous operation.

Suitable for

• Extending Ethernet networks over single-mode fiber up to 20 km
• Adding fiber ports to switches and routers with SFP slots
• Use in media converters and uplink connections between network devices
• Industrial or commercial network segments requiring compliant components

How to use

Power down the device if required by the host equipment, insert the BlueOptics SFP module into a compatible SFP slot until it clicks into place, and connect the LC-terminated fiber cable. For most modern equipment the module is hot-pluggable; check the host device manual for hot-swap support. Configure the network interface on the switch, router or media converter according to your network topology and monitoring tools. Monitor link status LEDs and management interfaces to confirm successful negotiation and proper operation.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber cabling that matches the module's optical specifications and keep fiber connectors clean to maintain signal quality. Verify compatibility with the host device's SFP slot and firmware; test spare modules before deployment in critical paths. Store unused modules in protective packaging to prevent contamination of the LC connector.
