SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-BXD43-20KM-BC-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-BXD43-20KM-BC-BO is a compact SFP transceiver module designed for single-mode fiber applications. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s, this module provides a reliable physical interface for network devices that require small form-factor pluggable optics. The module is built with a metal housing and weighs approximately 20 g, making it suitable for rack and chassis systems where space and thermal characteristics matter.

Advantages

The metal housing offers mechanical robustness and improved heat dissipation compared with plastic enclosures. With SFP interface compatibility and a defined 1250 Mbit/s data rate, the module integrates with a wide range of switches, routers and optical line cards that accept SFP optics. Its lightweight and compact design simplifies installation and replacement in dense network environments.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP transceiver by inserting the module into a compatible SFP slot on the network device until it latches. Connect a compatible single-mode fiber cable to the optical port, observing proper polarity and connector type. Ensure the host device is configured for a 1250 Mbit/s optical interface and verify link status through the device management interface or LEDs. To remove, depress the module latch and pull the transceiver straight out to avoid damaging the fiber connector.

Recommendations

Handle the optical connector caps carefully and keep them on when the module is not in use to prevent contamination. Use single-mode fiber cabling and maintain proper clean-room practices for connectors. Confirm compatibility with the host device's SFP slot and firmware; consult device documentation if link negotiation issues occur.
