Glasvezel-transceiver CBO MGB-LB10 1000Base-LX 1310nm

The BlueOptics Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO MGB-LB10 1000Base-LX 1310nm is a compact single-mode SFP module engineered for gigabit Ethernet links. It operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm and supports 1000Base-LX transmission over single-mode fiber, enabling long-distance data transport between network switches, routers, and media converters. The module fits standard SFP ports and is intended for use in enterprise networks and service provider environments where stable, point-to-point fiber uplinks are required.

Advantages

This transceiver offers stable gigabit performance over extended distances with low power consumption and hot-pluggable convenience. Its single-mode 1310 nm design minimizes dispersion for long-reach links and ensures predictable optical behaviour in mixed-vendor infrastructures. Compact SFP format allows flexible deployment in switches and media converters without occupying excessive rack space.

Suitable for

• Long-distance gigabit uplinks between switches and core routers
• Interbuilding connections over single-mode fiber
• Media converters used to bridge copper and fiber segments
• Service provider access and enterprise backbone segments

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Data rate: 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Fiber type: Single-mode fiber
• Typical link reach: designed for long-reach LX connections (kilometer-class distances over single-mode fiber)
• Optical launch: transceiver Tx/Rx optical interface for fiber patchcords
• Power: low-power SFP class module
• Hot-pluggable: supports insertion and removal without powering down the host

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an available SFP slot on a compatible switch, router, or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect a single-mode fiber patchcord with the appropriate connectors (for example LC) to the module’s optical ports, observing correct transmit-to-receive alignment. Verify link status on the host device and configure network settings as required for your environment. Handle the transceiver by its housing and keep protective dust caps on unused ports to avoid contamination of optical surfaces.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use single-mode fiber rated for 1310 nm and quality LC patchcords, maintain clean connector endfaces, and verify compatibility with the host hardware. Monitor link LEDs and device logs after installation and store spare modules in anti-static packaging when not in use.
