SFP transceiver module BlueOptics V23818-K305-B57-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics V23818-K305-B57-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1000Base-SX applications with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Housed in a metal casing with a silver finish, this compact module weighs approximately 20 g and follows MSA standards for physical and electrical interoperability. It integrates transmitter and receiver functionality for multimode fiber links using an LC duplex connector and is intended for use in switches, routers and other network equipment that support standard SFP transceivers.

Advantages

The module offers a durable metal housing and a lightweight design that simplifies installation and handling. Built to MSA-compliant dimensions and interfaces, it provides interoperability across equipment from different manufacturers. With a high MTBF value of 1,000,000 hours the transceiver is intended for long service life and reduced maintenance needs. The module supports standard 1000Base-SX optical signalling over multimode fiber and uses LC duplex connectivity for simultaneous send and receive channels.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the transceiver into an empty SFP slot on compatible network equipment until it engages with the port latch. Connect LC duplex fiber patch cords ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Configure the host device as required for 1000Base-SX operation; in many systems the interface will negotiate link parameters automatically. If the host supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable or monitor these features through the management interface to observe supply voltage, optical power and temperature where supported by the equipment.

Recommendations

To achieve optimal performance, use high-quality multimode fiber and LC duplex patch cords, keep connectors clean and inspect endfaces before mating. Verify that the target hardware supports SFP modules and the 1000Base-SX protocol to ensure compatibility. For critical links, consider testing the module in your specific hardware and monitoring diagnostics (if supported) during initial deployment.
