SFP transceiver module BlueOptics DEM-210-BO 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics DEM-210-BO SFP transceiver module is a single-mode fiber optic module supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s and operating at a wavelength of 1310 nm. Designed in an SFP form factor with an LC duplex interface, the module is suitable for connecting switches, routers and other network devices that accept MSA-compliant SFP modules. The unit is RoHS compliant, CE compatible and weighs approximately 20 g, offering a compact silver-coloured option for optical links up to typical single-mode distances.

Advantages

The transceiver provides standardized interoperability through the SFP form factor and MSA-compatible LC duplex connector, enabling plug-and-play installation in compatible hardware. Its 1310 nm optical wavelength and single-mode design allow for longer-distance connections compared with multimode solutions, while RoHS and CE conformity indicate compliance with common regulatory and environmental requirements. The module’s lightweight construction and compact dimensions support dense installations in racks and network appliances.

Suitable for

• Point-to-point single-mode fiber links between switches and routers
• Edge and aggregation network connections requiring 100BASE-LX class performance
• Network equipment slots that accept standard SFP transceivers with LC duplex connectors

How to use

Install the BlueOptics DEM-210-BO by inserting the SFP module into an appropriate SFP slot of a switch, router or other supported device while the host is powered off or following the vendor’s hot-swap procedure. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cables to the module’s connector, ensuring correct Tx/Rx alignment with the opposite transceiver. After physical installation, verify link status in the host device and confirm any required interface settings such as speed and duplex. If the host supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable or query these features through the device management interface to monitor optical parameters.

Recommendations

Use single-mode LC duplex patch cords and maintain proper fiber handling to avoid bending losses. Verify host compatibility and, if necessary, confirm DDM/DOM support in the target hardware before deployment. For predictable performance on longer links, test the optical budget end-to-end and keep connectors clean to maintain signal quality.
