SFP transceiver module BlueOptics MIL-SFP-SX-BO 1250 Mbit/s Silver

The BlueOptics MIL-SFP-SX-BO 1250 Mbit/s Silver is an SFP transceiver module designed for multimode fiber optic connections. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and uses an LC duplex interface for optical transmit and receive at 850 nm. The module is compliant with CE, RoHS, and FCC standards, weighs approximately 20 g, and follows MSA form-factor guidelines for broad compatibility with network equipment that accepts SFP modules.

Advantages

The module provides compact SFP form-factor interoperability with a wide range of switches, routers and storage systems and supports simultaneous transmit and receive over multimode fiber via LC duplex connectors. Built to MSA compatibility and populated with high-quality components, it offers extended operational life and reduced failure rates for optical links. The transceiver also supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) when host hardware provides access, enabling real-time reporting of supply voltage, laser current, optical output/input power and temperature.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the MIL-SFP-SX-BO module into an available SFP slot on compatible networking equipment until it clicks into place. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable to the module's LC ports, ensuring correct orientation of transmit and receive fibers. If the host device supports DDM/DOM, enable or query the diagnostic interface through the device management system to monitor module parameters. Follow the equipment manufacturer's hot-swap and electrostatic discharge guidelines during installation and removal.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode LC patch cables matched to the module's 850 nm wavelength and adhere to recommended maximum link lengths for 1000Base-SX over your chosen fiber type. Verify compatibility with the host device firmware and enable DDM only if the platform supports SFF-8472 diagnostics to access real-time monitoring data.
