SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 55111207201-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 55111207201-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Housed in a compact silver SFP form factor, the module supports single-mode fiber connections via an LC connector and is specified for link distances up to 20,000 m. With a measured mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours and compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards, this transceiver is suitable for deployment in network switches, media converters and other compatible networking equipment that accept SFP modules.

Advantages

The compact SFP form factor allows flexible installation in a wide range of networking hardware while keeping port density high. Support for up to 20 km link distance and an LC fiber connector provide compatibility with common single-mode fiber infrastructures. The module's 1,000,000-hour MTBF indicates long operational life, and regulatory compliance (CE, FCC, RoHS) simplifies integration into certified network environments. At a lightweight 20 g, the transceiver is easy to handle and install without adding significant mechanical load to the host device.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers or media converters over single-mode fiber
• Extending Ethernet links up to 20 km in campus or metro networks
• Replacing or upgrading existing SFP modules in compatible equipment

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 55111207201-BO by powering down the host device if recommended by the equipment manufacturer, then insert the SFP module into an available SFP slot until it seats firmly. Connect single-mode fiber cables with LC connectors to the module, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Power on the equipment and verify link status through the device management interface or LED indicators. Monitor the link for stable operation and confirm expected data rate and distance performance according to your network design.

Recommendations

Use this SFP transceiver with single-mode fiber and LC connectors matched to the same fiber type on both ends of the link. Ensure devices at both ends support 1.25 Gbit/s SFP modules and verify compatibility with the host equipment vendor if required. Avoid exposure to dust on the fiber connectors by using protective caps when the module is not connected, and follow ESD-safe handling procedures during installation to protect the module and host hardware.
