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

The BlueOptics SFP-BXD43-20KM-CH-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-port insertion into compatible network equipment. With a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and a metal housing, this compact module supports reliable optical links over long distances while maintaining a small form factor and a lightweight design of approximately 20 g. Supplied as a single unit, it suits installation in switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP form-factor modules.

Advantages

The metal housing provides mechanical durability and improved thermal dissipation compared with plastic enclosures, while the SFP interface ensures hot-pluggable convenience and wide compatibility with standard SFP ports. The module’s specified transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s meets the requirements for common fiber-based network segments and allows stable point-to-point optical transmission. Its compact dimensions and low weight simplify handling during installation and replacement.

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP transceiver modules and is powered down or in a state that permits hot-plugging according to the device manual. Align the module with the SFP port and insert it until it latches; if the device supports hot-swapping, insertion can be performed while the device is powered on. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable to the module’s optical interface using the correct connector type for your cabling. Verify link status in the host device’s management interface and observe indicator LEDs or status registers to confirm a stable connection at the expected data rate.

Recommendations

Handle the transceiver by its housing and avoid touching the optical interfaces; use dust caps when ports are not connected. Match the transceiver to compatible single-mode fiber and ensure connector cleanliness for reliable signal performance. Refer to the host equipment documentation for supported SFP module specifications and any firmware or configuration steps required to enable the optical port.
