SFP transceiver module BlueOptics S-SFP-GE-LH80-SM1550-BO 80000 m

The BlueOptics S-SFP-GE-LH80-SM1550-BO is a single-mode fiber SFP transceiver module designed for long-range 1000BASE-ZX links up to 80,000 m. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this SFP module uses LC duplex connectivity and operates with 1550 nm transmit and receive wavelengths to support gigabit Ethernet and related optical protocols while complying with MSA form-factor standards.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides long-distance single-mode transmission suited for backbone and campus links, offering a compact SFP interface type and an aluminium housing for durable installation. The module is compatible with hardware that accepts standard 1000BASE-ZX SFPs and supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host platform exposes that capability. The lightweight design and standardized LC duplex connector enable straightforward replacement or upgrade in switches, routers and other networking equipment that accept SFP modules.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the module into any compatible SFP port following the equipment manufacturer’s insertion procedure, ensuring the link partner also supports 1000BASE-ZX at 1550 nm. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords with correct polarity. If the host system supports DDM/DOM, enable or query diagnostic parameters to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit/receive power and temperature. Confirm software/firmware compatibility on the target hardware before deployment to ensure the transceiver operates without vendor-specific restrictions.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode fiber and LC duplex patch cords, maintain clean connector end-faces, and verify polarity and loss budget for the planned 80 km span. When possible, test the transceiver in the intended hardware environment to validate link stability and DDM/DOM reporting prior to large-scale rollout.
