Módulo transceptor SFP BlueOptics AC-SFP-LX-E-20-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics AC-SFP-LX-E-20-BO is a single‑port SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for 1000BASE‑LX applications. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and is intended for single‑mode fiber links. The module comes in a metal housing, weighs approximately 20 g, and is designed for long operational life with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours. The transceiver uses LC duplex connectivity and operates with 1310 nm transmit and receive wavelengths, providing compatibility with MSA‑compliant SFP ports.

Advantages

The BlueOptics AC-SFP-LX-E-20-BO offers a compact SFP form factor, metal housing for mechanical robustness and thermal dissipation, and support for common 1.25 Gbit/s optical network protocols. Its MSA compliance ensures interoperability with a wide range of switches, routers and optical equipment that accept standard SFP modules. The module’s estimated MTBF and choice of quality components provide reliable operation for long‑term network deployments.

Suitable for

• Single‑mode fiber links up to typical LX distances (industry standard long‑reach connections)
• 1 Gbit/s Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet and SDH/SONET applications
• Replacement or expansion of SFP ports in switches, routers, storage and aggregation equipment

How to use

Install the transceiver into an available SFP slot until it locks into place, following the host equipment’s insertion procedure. Connect LC duplex single‑mode patch cords to the Tx and Rx ports, taking care to match transmit to receive on the opposing end. Verify link status and negotiate speed via the host device; if supported, enable Digital Diagnostics/DOM in the system to monitor parameters such as temperature, supply voltage and optical power. Follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions and keep protective caps on unused ports and connectors when not actively connected.

Recommendations

For best performance, use high‑quality single‑mode LC duplex patch cords and verify compatibility with the host hardware. Ensure the host device supports 1000BASE‑LX SFP modules and, when available, enable digital diagnostics monitoring to assist with maintenance and troubleshooting. Store spare modules in a dry, dust‑free environment and avoid mechanical stress on connectors to maintain reliable long‑term operation.
