SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFPLX-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFPLX-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s (1.25 Gbit/s) at a wavelength of 1310 nm and uses an LC duplex connector. The compact SFP form factor and a weight of approximately 20 g make it suitable for installation in switches, routers and other network equipment that accept SFP modules. The module is specified for optical link distances up to 10,000 m over single-mode fiber and is finished in a silver housing.

Advantages

The module provides 1.25 Gbit/s Ethernet-compatible optical connectivity in a small SFP package, enabling straightforward upgrades or replacements in compatible hardware. Its 1310 nm transmitter and receiver pair are intended for long-reach single-mode fibre runs, and the LC duplex interface supports simultaneous transmit and receive on separate fibers. The lightweight metal housing and industry-standard form factor facilitate simple insertion, hot-swap capability, and mechanical compatibility with devices following SFP MSA guidelines.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP module into a compatible SFP port on your network device until it seats securely and the retention latch engages. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords, ensuring correct orientation for transmit and receive fibers. Configure the network device as required for a 1.25 Gbit/s optical link and verify link status via device LEDs or management interfaces. The module is designed for hot-swap use; remove it by releasing the retention mechanism before extracting the module from the port.

Recommendations

For optimal link performance, use single-mode LC duplex patch cords of appropriate specification and maintain clean connector endfaces. Confirm that the host device supports 1000BASE-LX / SFP modules and, if monitoring is required, verify that the platform supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) to access real-time parameters such as optical power and temperature.
