Transceptor SFP CBO SFP-1G-ZX 1 Gbit/s monomodo 80 km

The SFP transceiver CBO SFP-1G-ZX 1 Gbps single-mode 80 km is a compact optical module that provides single-mode fiber connectivity at 1 Gbps for long-distance links up to 80 kilometres. Designed for insertion into compatible SFP ports, this hot-swappable transceiver supports point-to-point connections between routers, switches and optical transport equipment. Its form factor and power profile make it suitable for telecom racks, data centre interconnects and enterprise backbone extensions where stable long-range single-mode transmission is required.

Advantages

This transceiver offers reliable single-mode optical transmission at 1 Gbps over extended distances, reducing the need for intermediate repeaters or additional equipment. The hot-swappable SFP form factor enables service technicians to install or replace modules without powering down equipment, minimising downtime during maintenance. Compact dimensions and standard electrical/optical interfaces ensure broad compatibility with networking hardware that accepts SFP modules. The module’s design focuses on stable link performance and predictable reach for backbone and metro access applications.

Suitable for

• Long-distance point-to-point links between switches or routers
• Data centre interconnects and campus backbone connections
• Telecom access and metro aggregation where single-mode fibre is deployed
• Upgrading network reach without replacing chassis or line cards

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps
• Fiber type: single-mode
• Maximum reach: up to 80 km
• Connector type: standard SFP optical interface
• Form factor: small form-factor pluggable (hot-swappable)
• Typical applications: long-range fibre links for routers, switches and optical equipment

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on the network device until it clicks into place, observing the device manufacturer’s instructions for hot-swapping. Connect a single-mode fiber cable with the appropriate connector to the transceiver’s optical interface, ensuring correct alignment and clean fibre endfaces to maintain signal quality. After connection, verify link status via the host device’s management interface or status LEDs and perform any required configuration on the network device to enable the new link.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fibre rated for long-distance transmission and keep connectors and fibre endfaces clean. Confirm compatibility with the host device’s supported SFP modules and check link parameters (wavelength and power budget) when planning distances close to the 80 km limit. Handle the module carefully to avoid electrostatic discharge and store unused transceivers in protective packaging.
