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

The BlueOptics SFP-GLSD-20A-A-BO is a compact fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for single-mode links with a nominal wavelength of 1310 nm and a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Housed in a metal casing and powered by a 3.3 V input, this module is intended for insertion into SFP ports of switches, routers and media converters to provide reliable optical network connectivity while occupying minimal space and weight.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver combines a standardized SFP interface with a metal housing for mechanical durability and thermal stability. The 1310 nm wavelength supports common single-mode fiber applications and the 1250 Mbit/s line rate is suitable for typical gigabit-compatible optical links. Its low weight and small form factor simplify installation and replacement in rack-mounted equipment and compact networking devices.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber optic uplinks and point-to-point links
• Switches, routers and media converters with SFP ports
• Network segments requiring 1250 Mbit/s optical links over 1310 nm
• Environments where compact, low-weight transceivers are preferred

How to use

Ensure the host device is powered down or supports hot-plugging of SFP modules according to the device manual. Align the module with the SFP port and insert gently until it seats and the retention mechanism engages. Connect the appropriate single-mode fiber cable to the optical interface, respecting transmit/receive orientation. Power on the host device if it was powered down and verify link status through the device LEDs or management interface. Follow optical safety practices when handling fiber connectors.

Recommendations

Use clean, undamaged single-mode fiber cables and LC connectors compatible with 1310 nm operation. Avoid excessive bending of fiber and protect connectors from contamination. Check compatibility with the host device's supported SFP modules and consult the equipment documentation for supported link distances and diagnostics.
