SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-1000-SM13-40-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-1000-SM13-40-BO is a single‑mode fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 1000BASE‑LH applications. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s, operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm and requires a 3.3 V supply. The module is compact and lightweight (approx. 40 g) with a silver housing and an SFP form factor that fits SFP slots in switches, routers and other networking equipment.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides single‑mode, long‑reach optical connectivity up to the specified maximum transfer distance, enabling reliable 1.25 Gbit/s links over fiber. Its SFP form factor allows hot‑plug installation and compatibility with equipment that supports standard MSA SFP interfaces. The low weight and compact size simplify handling and mounting in patch panels or devices. The 1310 nm wavelength and single‑mode optical design make it suitable for extended link distances where immunity to electromagnetic interference is required.

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP transceivers and the required 1000BASE‑LH optical standard. With power to the host device off or in accordance with the device manufacturer’s hot‑swap guidance, insert the SFP module into an available SFP port until it seats firmly. Connect single‑mode LC‑terminated fiber patch cords to the module (observe transmit/receive orientation). Power up the host device if it was powered down and verify link status in the device management interface. Confirm that the link negotiates at 1 Gbit/s and that any expected optical diagnostic data is available if supported by the host.

Recommendations

Use single‑mode fiber and LC duplex patch cords certified for long‑reach applications and keep connectors clean to maintain optimal optical performance. Verify that the host hardware supports the required digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) if you need access to real‑time optical parameters. Follow ESD precautions when handling the module and store unused modules in protective caps to avoid contamination.
