Glasvezel-SFP-transceiver BlueOptics JD493A-H-BO 550 m aluminium

The BlueOptics JD493A-H-BO is a fiber optic SFP transceiver designed for 1000Base-SX applications. Housed in aluminium and weighing 20 grams, it supports multimode fiber links with LC duplex connectors and enables data transmission at rates up to 1.25 Gbit/s over distances up to 550 metres. The module implements industry-standard SFP form factor and optical characteristics (850 nm wavelength) for compatibility with hardware platforms that support the equivalent original transceiver.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a compact SFP form factor with an aluminium housing that aids heat dissipation while keeping weight low. It supports simultaneous transmit and receive over LC duplex multimode fiber and is engineered to be compatible with major hardware platforms that accept the original equivalent module. Built to MSA standards, the module includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) support where the host hardware provides access, enabling remote monitoring of parameters such as supply voltage, optical power and temperature.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot until the module latches. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cord to the module, observing transmit/receive orientation. Ensure the connected hardware supports the required 1000Base-SX protocol and the host system’s firmware or drivers allow use of third‑party compatible SFP modules. If digital diagnostics are required, confirm that the host supports DDM/DOM to read real-time parameters such as optical power and temperature.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber of appropriate grade (OM1/OM2/OM3/OM4 as applicable) and quality LC patch cords for optimal reach; verify link budget and connector cleanliness before commissioning. Avoid excessive mechanical stress and electrostatic discharge when handling the transceiver, and store unused modules in protective packaging to prevent contamination of the optical interface.
