SFP transceiver module BlueOptics TN-SFP-SXD-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics TN-SFP-SXD-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1000Base-SX applications. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s over multimode fiber using an LC duplex connector and operates with 850 nm transmit and receive wavelengths. The module features a metal silver housing, weighs approximately 20 g and is built to meet MSA standards for pluggable SFP modules, providing compatibility with hardware that supports 1000Base-SX SFP transceivers.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP form factor with a standardized LC duplex interface suitable for simultaneous transmit and receive operation on separate fibers. Constructed in a metal housing and manufactured according to MSA guidelines, it delivers long operational lifetime and high reliability with an MTBF of about 1,000,000 hours. Compatibility testing with common hardware platforms ensures predictable behavior in switches, routers and storage systems that accept 1000Base-SX SFP modules.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on your switch, router or other network device while the device is powered according to the manufacturer's guidance. Connect multimode LC duplex patch cables to the module's LC ports, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Confirm that the host device supports 1000Base-SX SFP modules and, if available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) in the host to monitor supply voltage, optical power and temperature. Allow a short link negotiation time for the network interface to establish a connection.

Recommendations

Use multimode OM3/OM4 patch cords for optimal reach and performance within the specified distance for 1000Base-SX. Avoid bending or stressing fiber cables and follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the module. Ensure the host device firmware supports third-party SFP modules if required, and perform an initial test after installation to verify link status and diagnostic readings.
