SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-BXU35-40KM-PA-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-BXU35-40KM-PA-BO is an SFP fibre optic transceiver module designed for point-to-point links that require reliable data transport over extended distances. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s, this compact module comes in a metal housing with a silver finish and a lightweight construction of approximately 20 g. With an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours it is intended for continuous operation in network equipment that accepts SFP interfaces.

Advantages

The metal housing provides mechanical protection and improved thermal dissipation while the standard SFP form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of switches and routers. The module's rated MTBF and lightweight design make it suitable for installations where long-term availability and minimal physical footprint are important. Its single-mode optical design supports long-reach links up to the module's specified distance.

How to use

Ensure the target network device supports SFP transceivers and that the module's optical type and link budget are appropriate for the planned fibre span. Insert the transceiver into an empty SFP slot until it clicks into place, taking care to align it correctly. Connect the single-mode fibre cable with the correct connector type, observe proper polarity, and verify link status via the host device. Monitor the link LEDs and device logs to confirm stable operation at the expected data rate.

Recommendations

Handle the transceiver by its housing, avoid touching optical interfaces, and keep protective dust caps in place when not connected. Verify compatibility with the host device's supported transceiver types and, where applicable, update device firmware or restrict port settings to the intended data rate. For long spans, check fibre attenuation and use appropriate optical power margins.
