SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-GLSD-20-A-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-GLSD-20-A-BO is a compact fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for single-mode optical links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s over distances up to 20,000 m using a 1310 nm wavelength. Housed in a metal case and rated for 3.3 V input, the module is lightweight (approx. 40 g) and fits standard SFP slots for straightforward installation in compatible network equipment.

Advantages

The transceiver combines single-mode 1310 nm transmission with a robust metal housing to deliver stable optical connectivity and physical durability. Its SFP form factor and modest weight make it suitable for dense installations and hot-swap replacement. With support for long-distance links and a data rate of up to 1250 Mbit/s, the module is appropriate for a range of Ethernet and high-speed networking applications where a compact, standardized optical interface is required.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-GLSD-20-A-BO into an empty SFP slot of a compatible switch, router, media converter or other network device. Ensure the device is powered and that the host supports SFP transceivers and the required optical data rate. Connect single-mode fiber patch cords (LC duplex recommended) to the module’s optical interface, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status through the host device indicators or management interface and follow the host vendor’s procedures for enabling and testing the port.

Recommendations

Use single-mode LC duplex patch cords and, where available, enable Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) on the host device to monitor voltage, laser bias, optical power and temperature if the platform supports these diagnostics. Keep fiber connectors clean and protected, and follow ESD-safe handling practices when inserting or removing the transceiver.
