SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-GIG-EXTND-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm Silver

The BlueOptics SFP-GIG-EXTND-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1000BASE-X applications. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm. The module is housed in a silver metal casing, requires a 3.3 V input voltage and weighs 40 g. It features an LC duplex optical interface and follows MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) form-factor standards for compatibility with a wide range of networking hardware.

Advantages

The transceiver provides reliable optical data transmission over fiber with immunity to electromagnetic interference and supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels via LC duplex connections. It is manufactured according to MSA standards to ensure interoperability with major networking platforms that accept 1000BASE-X SFP modules. The compact metal housing and standard SFP interface make it simple to deploy and replace in switches, routers and storage systems.

How to use

Install the module into a compatible SFP slot on your switch, router or other network device while the host hardware is powered off or following the device manufacturer's hot-plug guidance. Connect an appropriate LC duplex fiber patch cable between this transceiver and the remote fiber connector or patch panel, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status on the host device and confirm that firmware or software settings permit third-party SFP modules if required by the vendor. If the host supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM), enable and monitor the diagnostic parameters for real-time information about supply voltage, laser bias current, output and receive power, and temperature.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber or multimode fiber that matches the module's wavelength and reach specifications and choose high-quality LC duplex patch cords and patch panels to achieve optimal link performance. Ensure the host hardware supports 1000BASE-X SFP modules and, when available, enable DDM/DOM for proactive monitoring. Follow ESD precautions when handling the transceiver and store unused modules in protective packaging to prevent dust and contamination of optical interfaces.
