SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SM1G-SX-BO 1250 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics SM1G-SX-BO 1250 Mbit/s 850 nm is an SFP transceiver module designed for fiber optic network links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and transmits at an 850 nm wavelength, making it suitable for short-range multimode fiber connections. The module is housed in a durable metal casing, offers a compact SFP form factor and complies with RoHS standards for restricted hazardous substances.

Advantages

The module’s SFP interface provides hot-pluggable convenience and compatibility with a wide range of switches and routers that support small form-factor pluggable optics. Its metal housing ensures mechanical stability and heat dissipation while the standard 850 nm wavelength enables interoperability with common multimode fiber cabling. The RoHS compliance indicates reduced levels of restricted substances, and the compact lightweight design simplifies installation and handling.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SM1G-SX-BO into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered on or according to the host’s hot-plug guidelines. Connect the appropriate multimode fiber cable to the transceiver’s optical port, ensuring proper fiber type and connector endface cleanliness. Configure the network port on the host device if necessary to match speed and duplex settings; most modern devices will auto-negotiate with the module. Follow the host equipment manual for any firmware or compatibility steps.

Recommendations

Use OM1/OM2/OM3 multimode fiber appropriate for 850 nm transmission and keep fiber connectors clean and protected when not in use. Verify SFP compatibility with the host device and confirm link diagnostics through the switch or router management interface after installation.
