Glasvezel-SFP-transceiver BlueOptics 740-031468-BO 80000 m aluminium

The BlueOptics 740-031468-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode long‑distance links. Supporting 1000BASE‑ZX operation, this compact transceiver uses an LC duplex connector and transmits and receives at 1550 nm to deliver optical data over distances up to 80,000 m. The module is housed in an aluminum casing, weighs approximately 20 g, and is supplied as an individual unit suitable for integration into network switches, routers and other compatible hardware that accepts SFP modules.

Advantages

The transceiver follows MSA SFP form‑factor standards and provides interoperability with systems that support 1000BASE‑ZX optics. Its aluminum shell offers mechanical protection and thermal stability while keeping the module lightweight. Designed for single‑mode fiber and LC duplex connections, the module supports full duplex optical transmission at gigabit speeds and includes support for standard digital diagnostics when the host platform offers that capability.

Suitable for

• Long‑reach single‑mode Ethernet links up to 80 km
• Interconnects between switches and routers in campus or metro networks
• Fiber uplinks for storage or server aggregation
• Replacement or expansion of SFP ports in equipment that supports 1000BASE‑ZX optics

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (MSA compliant)
• Optical mode: Single‑mode fiber
• Wavelength: 1550 nm transmit and receive
• Data rate: 1.25 Gbit/s (1000BASE‑ZX)
• Connector: LC duplex
• Maximum reach: up to 80,000 m (80 km)
• Housing: aluminium casing
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on your switch, router or media converter while the host equipment is powered down or following the vendor’s hot‑swap procedure. Connect LC duplex single‑mode fiber patch cords ensuring correct Tx/Rx orientation. Verify link status on the host device and confirm that the port is configured to support 1000BASE‑ZX or auto‑negotiation as required by your network. If the host platform supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable and read the diagnostic registers to monitor supply voltage, laser bias, transmit/receive power and temperature.

Recommendations

Use factory‑rated single‑mode fiber and LC duplex patch cords to achieve the specified reach. Confirm compatibility with your hardware vendor’s supported optics list and enable DDM/DOM monitoring where available. For stable long‑distance links, verify end‑to‑end fiber attenuation and use appropriate dispersion‑ and loss‑budget planning.
