SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-4360-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-4360-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1.25 Gbit/s (1250 Mbit/s) data transfer over single‑mode fiber. Encased in a metal housing and weighing approximately 3 g, the module operates from a 3.3 V supply and supports long-distance links up to 40 km with an LC simplex style fiber interface. The transceiver is compatible with standard SFP ports and follows common MSA mechanical and electrical requirements for hot‑swappable insertion into switches, routers and other networking equipment.

Advantages

This module provides a compact, industry‑standard SFP form factor with a metal housing for mechanical robustness and thermal stability. Support for up to 1250 Mbit/s and single‑mode operation to 40 000 m enables deployment in metropolitan and campus links. Low weight and a 3.3 V supply make the transceiver easy to integrate into existing hardware that accepts SFP modules. The module uses a simplex LC optical connector to send and receive signals over a single fiber strand using different wavelengths for transmit and receive.

How to use

Power down or follow the host device hot‑swap procedure, then insert the BlueOptics SFP‑4360‑BO into an empty SFP slot until it latches. Connect a suitable single‑mode LC simplex patch cable between transceivers or to a patch panel, observing correct orientation for transmit and receive ends. Verify link status on the host device and ensure the port is configured for the expected speed and protocol. If required by the system, enable or verify Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support to monitor optical parameters from the host.

Recommendations

Use single‑mode fiber rated for the required distance and quality LC patch cords to achieve optimal range and signal quality. Confirm host compatibility with standard SFP modules and, if monitoring is needed, ensure the host supports DDM/DOM to access voltage, temperature and optical power metrics. Avoid bending fiber beyond its minimum bend radius and handle the module with ESD precautions during installation and removal.
