SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-EN-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-EN-BO 1250 Mbit/s is a single‑port fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for long‑distance Gigabit links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and is engineered for stable point‑to‑point connections over single‑mode fiber. With a compact SFP form factor and lightweight construction (approximately 20 grams), this transceiver is suitable for use in switches, routers and optical line terminals that accept standard SFP modules.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP module offers long‑reach transmission capabilities in a small SFP package, enabling reliable connectivity over extended distances. The device is specified with a high MTBF (mean time between failures), which indicates long operational life and low failure rates. Its compatibility with standard SFP interfaces and straightforward plug‑and‑play installation make it practical for network upgrades and maintenance without extensive configuration.

Suitable for

• Long‑distance Gigabit Ethernet links over single‑mode fiber
• Interconnecting switches, routers or optical line terminals in campus and metro networks
• Fiber backbone segments and point‑to‑point links between buildings

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form‑factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Designed transmission range: long reach (up to 160 km, typical for ZX optics)
• Optical fiber type: single‑mode fiber compatibility
• Form factor: hot‑pluggable SFP
• Weight: 0.02 kg (approx.)
• Reliability: MTBF ~3,000,000 hours

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot on a compatible network device, ensuring the module is seated firmly until it clicks. Connect a suitable single‑mode fiber patch cable to the transceiver port, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. After physical installation, verify link status on the host device and check negotiated link speed. No additional software is typically required; if the host device requires specific configuration, follow the device manufacturer's instructions.

Recommendations

Use certified single‑mode fiber and appropriate LC connectors for optimal performance. Observe ESD precautions when handling the transceiver and keep dust caps on the optical ports until connecting the fiber. Confirm compatibility with the host device's SFP interface and firmware to ensure proper operation.
