SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-1GT13R15BX40-I-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-1GT13R15BX40-I-BO is a single-mode fiber SFP transceiver module designed for 1000BASE-BX-U applications with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and a quoted reach of up to 40,000 meters. Housed in a metal case and weighing approximately 3 g, this compact module operates from a 3.3 V supply and uses an LC simplex interface for optical connection. The module implements separate transmit and receive wavelengths to enable bidirectional data over a single fiber and is compatible with equipment conforming to MSA SFP form-factor standards.

Advantages

The transceiver provides long-reach single-mode connectivity while maintaining a small physical footprint and low power operation. Its metal housing supports mechanical stability and thermal conduction. Built to MSA specifications and tested for functional compatibility with common vendor platforms, the module supports digital diagnostics for real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, output power, received power and module temperature when the host system exposes the DDM/DOM interface.

How to use

Install the SFP module into an empty SFP port on compatible network equipment while the host device is powered per the vendor’s instructions or hot-swap guidelines for the platform. Mate the LC simplex connector with the corresponding single-mode fiber patch cord, ensuring correct orientation for the transmit and receive directions. If the host hardware supports Digital Diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable or query the monitoring interface to observe real-time parameters. Verify link status through the switch or router management interface and perform standard fiber testing and attenuation checks if necessary.

Recommendations

Use single-mode LC simplex patch cords and, where possible, route fibers through appropriate cable management and patch panels to preserve connector condition. Confirm that the target hardware supports 1000BASE-BX-U profiles and DDM/DOM if diagnostics are required. For reliable long-distance links, inspect connectors for cleanliness and verify optical loss budgets to maintain expected performance.
