SFP transceiver module BlueOptics IE-SFP-1GE-SM-10-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics IE-SFP-1GE-SM-10-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode links with a nominal wavelength of 1310 nm and a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Housed in a compact metal casing and operating from a 3.3 V input, the module weighs approximately 20 g and fits standard SFP ports for flexible installation in networking equipment. The transceiver supports duplex optical connections and is built to MSA-compatible mechanical dimensions for broad interoperability.

Advantages

This module offers stable gigabit-capable optical transmission over single-mode fiber using a 1310 nm wavelength. Its metal enclosure provides mechanical robustness and heat dissipation while the 3.3 V operation is compatible with common switch and router SFP sockets. The small, lightweight form factor simplifies deployment and replacement in rack-mounted or distributed network hardware. Designed and tested according to industry MSA guidelines, the transceiver is suitable for use in platforms that accept standard SFP modules.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics IE-SFP-1GE-SM-10-BO into an empty SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered according to the vendor's guidelines. Connect single-mode fiber cables with appropriate LC or other compatible connectors to the transceiver’s optical port, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status and speed in the host device management interface; most systems will detect the module and establish a 1.25 Gbit/s optical link automatically. Follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the transceiver and keep dust caps on unused fiber ports until ready to connect.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use single-mode fiber rated for 1310 nm wavelengths and LC duplex patch cords of appropriate attenuation and length. Confirm compatibility with the host equipment's SFP slot and firmware policies; if a device restricts third-party modules, consult the device documentation or vendor support. Periodic inspection and cleaning of connectors ensures stable signal quality and minimizes insertion loss over time.
