SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-1G-SX-SP-BO 1250 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-1G-SX-SP-BO is a compact fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 1 Gbit/s class links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s at an operating wavelength of 850 nm and uses multimode fiber with an LC duplex connector. The module is housed in metal, weighs approximately 3 g and is intended for installation in SFP-compatible network equipment that follows MSA standards.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides reliable single-lane optical connectivity with a small form factor and a robust metal casing for mechanical durability. Its support for standard 850 nm multimode transmission and LC duplex interface ensures interoperability with common fiber patch cords and network hardware. The lightweight design and industry-standard mechanical and electrical characteristics make it suitable for use in switches, routers and storage devices that accept SFP modules.

Suitable for

• 1 Gbit/s Ethernet links over multimode fiber
• Connections between switches, routers and servers within a data center or campus
• Upgrading or replacing SFP ports that require 850 nm multimode transceivers with LC duplex connectors

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-1G-SX-SP-BO into any compatible SFP slot on your switch, router or other networking equipment while the device is powered down or following the vendor's hot-swap guidance. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable to the module and the remote transceiver or patch panel, ensuring transmit and receive fiber orientation is correct. Configure the network interface as required by your equipment — typical settings include enabling the SFP port and setting auto-negotiation or fixed speed modes according to the network design.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber patch cords with appropriate insertion loss ratings and keep connector endfaces clean to preserve link quality. Verify that the host device supports 850 nm SFP modules and, if required, enable digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) in the host to access real-time link parameters.
