Módulo transceptor SFP BlueOptics MOD-SFP-GE-SX-BO 1000 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics MOD-SFP-GE-SX-BO is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber optic transceiver module designed for gigabit Ethernet links. Supporting data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and operating at an 850 nm wavelength, this module is intended for short-range multimode fiber connections. Housed in a metal casing and weighing 20 g, the module combines a compact footprint with mechanical durability for rack and field installations.

Advantages

The transceiver supports reliable gigabit transmission over multimode fiber with a maximum reach of 550 m at 850 nm, reducing the need for electrical re-cabling in local networks. Its metal housing provides mechanical protection and thermal stability while the LC connector ensures broad compatibility with industry-standard fiber patch panels and equipment. The lightweight, hot-pluggable design simplifies installation and replacement without interrupting system operation.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot on compatible network equipment until it clicks into place. Connect an LC-terminated multimode fiber patch cable to the module’s LC port, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Configure the connected switch or media converter for gigabit operation if required; most devices will auto-negotiate the 1000 Mbit/s link. To remove the module, disengage any retaining mechanism and pull the transceiver straight out of the slot while the device is powered down or as permitted by the host device’s hot-swap capability.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber compliant with the transceiver’s specifications and keep fiber connectors clean to maintain signal quality. Verify compatibility with the host device’s SFP inventory and firmware; consult device documentation for any vendor-specific compatibility notes. Avoid excessive mechanical stress on the module and fiber cable, and store unused transceivers in protective packaging to prevent contamination.
