SFP-glasvezelmodule CBO SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-DE-BO 1,25 Gbit/s single-mode LC, 160 km

The BlueOptics CBO SFP-1G-ZX-160KM-DE-BO is a single-mode SFP fiber transceiver module supporting a 1.25 Gbit/s data rate with an LC duplex connector. Designed for long-distance optical links in telecom and enterprise networks, this SFP module supports hot-pluggable installation and fits standard SFP ports to enable reliable signal transmission for backbone and metro applications up to 160 km.

Advantages

This transceiver offers long-reach performance up to 160 km over single-mode fiber, combined with a compact hot-pluggable SFP form factor for easy field replacement and minimal downtime. The LC duplex interface ensures compatibility with common fiber patching systems, while support for a 1.25 Gbit/s data rate makes it suitable for gigabit Ethernet and similar protocols. The module is designed for stable optical output and sensitivity required in extended-distance links.

Suitable for

• Long-distance metro and backbone fiber links
• Point-to-point connections between data centers or central offices
• Telecommunication and ISP network aggregation
• Enterprise campus links requiring extended reach

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Data rate: 1.25 Gbit/s
• Fiber type: single-mode
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Maximum reach: up to 160 km
• Wavelength range: typical long-wavelength (ZX) optical transmission

How to use

Insert the SFP module into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router, or media converter while the device is powered on or off according to the host equipment guidance. Connect single-mode fiber cables with LC duplex connectors to the module, ensuring correct Tx/Rx orientation. Monitor link status through the host device management interface and observe optical power and error counters to verify proper operation. For safety, avoid looking directly into the fiber end and follow standard handling procedures for optical modules.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber with appropriate attenuation and dispersion characteristics for long-reach links, ensure clean LC connectors and proper fiber routing, and verify compatibility with the host device SFP support list. For distances approaching the 160 km limit, consider inline amplification or dispersion compensation if required by the optical budget.
