SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-1000BASESX-BO 1250 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-1000BASESX-BO is a compact fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for multimode links with LC duplex connectors. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and operates at an optical wavelength of 850 nm. The module is silver, lightweight (20 g) and built to MSA-compatible form factors for use in common network hardware. It includes digital diagnostic monitoring capability and is intended for reliable short-range Gigabit Ethernet connections over multimode fiber.

Advantages

The module offers a standardized SFP interface and LC duplex fiber connections for simple installation in switches, routers and other SFP-enabled equipment. With an operating wavelength of 850 nm and support for 1250 Mbit/s, it covers 1000Base-SX applications. Integrated digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) allow real-time monitoring of parameters such as supply voltage, laser current, optical transmit/receive power and temperature when supported by host hardware. The product’s compact metal housing and low weight make it suitable for dense rack installations and reduce mechanical stress on ports.

How to use

Insert the SFP-1000BASESX-BO module into any compatible SFP port until it locks in place, then connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module and to the corresponding port or patch panel. Ensure the host device supports 1000Base-SX on the SFP slot and, if you need diagnostic data, confirm the platform exposes DDM/DOM information. After physical connection, configure the network interface on the host device according to your network settings and verify link status and speed through the host management interface.

Recommendations

Use OM1/OM2/OM3 multimode fiber appropriate for the intended distance and verify connector cleanliness before mating. Avoid bending the fiber beyond its minimum bend radius and ensure transceiver firmware and host device drivers are up to date to maintain compatibility. If digital diagnostics are required, enable DDM/DOM support on the host device and monitor optical power and temperature values as part of routine maintenance.
