SFP transceiver module BlueOptics MC3208011-LX-BO 1250 Mbit/s LC

The BlueOptics MC3208011-LX-BO is an SFP transceiver module for single-mode fiber connections. It supports up to 1250 Mbit/s data transfer and uses an LC duplex interface. The module has a lightweight form factor (20 g) and a silver housing, designed for insertion into SFP-compatible ports that follow MSA standards for compact fiber transceivers.

Advantages

The module provides support for 1000BASE-LX class optical links with a standardized LC connector, enabling duplex transmit and receive over single-mode fiber. Its compact SFP form factor and standardized interface allow straightforward replacement or upgrade in compatible network equipment. The low weight and metal housing contribute to secure insertion and reliable mechanical contact in SFP cages.

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an empty SFP port on compatible network hardware until it latches. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports following the port labelling. Ensure both connected devices are configured for the intended link speed and protocol; the module supports up to 1250 Mbit/s. Confirm that the host device accepts third-party SFP modules if any vendor lock-in measures are present and verify link status LEDs or management interfaces after insertion.

Recommendations

Use appropriate single-mode LC duplex patch cords and observe correct polarity when connecting transmit and receive fibers. Handle the transceiver with ESD precautions and keep dust caps on the optical ports when not in use. Verify compatibility with the equipment vendor’s supported SFP list and enable any required diagnostics or monitoring features on the host to monitor link health.
