SFP-transceiver CBO TN-SFP-LXB12-BO 1250 Mbit/s single-mode 20.000 m

The BlueOptics SFP transceiver TN-SFP-LXB12-BO supports a 1250 Mbit/s data rate for single-mode fiber links with a maximum reach of up to 20,000 m. Designed to fit standard SFP slots, this compact optical module enables long-distance connections between switches, routers and media converters. It provides a straightforward way to extend fiber links for point-to-point transmission while maintaining compatibility with equipment that accepts SFP form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver offers single-mode operation suitable for long-reach fiber links, supporting a standardized 1250 Mbit/s data rate. Its SFP form factor ensures broad compatibility with networking hardware that features SFP ports, allowing easy hot-pluggable installation. With a rated reach of up to 20,000 m, the module is designed for extended-distance connections while preserving low-latency optical transmission characteristics.

Suitable for

• Extending fiber links between switches and routers over long distances
• Connecting media converters to single-mode fiber infrastructure
• Point-to-point optical links in campus, metropolitan, or industrial networks

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Data rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Fiber type: single-mode
• Maximum link length: up to 20,000 m

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter while the device is powered according to the host equipment instructions. Connect single-mode fiber with appropriate connectors and ensure fiber polarity and connector type match the port. After physical installation, verify link status in the host device management interface and configure necessary network settings such as speed and duplex as required by the network design.

Recommendations

Handle the optical connector ends carefully and keep dust caps in place until installation. Use proper single-mode patch cords and maintain clean connector endfaces to ensure reliable transmission. Confirm compatibility with the host device firmware and SFP port specifications before deployment.
