SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-1GE-LX-BO Fiber optic 10000 m

The BlueOptics SFP-1GE-LX-BO is a single-mode fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 1000BASE-LX applications with a reach of up to 10,000 m. Housed in an aluminium enclosure and weighing approximately 20 g, this compact SFP module provides a standard LC duplex interface and conforms to MSA physical form-factor expectations. It is intended for use in networking equipment that accepts SFP modules and supports 1 Gbps optical links over single-mode fiber.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP module offers long-distance single-mode transmission up to 10 km in a small, lightweight aluminium package that is compatible with standard SFP ports. It supports bidirectional optical transmit and receive functions at 1310 nm and is manufactured to MSA-aligned mechanical and optical specifications to ensure interoperable use in SFP-capable networking hardware. The compact design and standard interface simplify installation and replacement in switches, routers and other network devices.

How to use

Insert the SFP-1GE-LX-BO module into a compatible SFP slot on the target device until it latches securely. Connect an LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cable to the module’s LC connector, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify that the host device recognizes the module and that the optical interface is enabled in device configuration. For optimal performance, use single-mode fiber rated for 1310 nm transmission and confirm link settings (speed, duplex, and protocol) match the connected equipment.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode LC duplex patch cords and, where available, enable digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) on supported host hardware to monitor optical parameters such as Tx/Rx power and temperature. Avoid bending the fiber beyond manufacturer bend-radius specifications and ensure clean connector endfaces for reliable long-distance links.
