Glasvezel transceiver module BlueOptics GVT-0300-BO SFP 550m aluminium

The BlueOptics GVT-0300-BO SFP 550m Aluminium is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for multimode networks requiring short-range, high-speed optical links. It implements the 1000Base-SX standard with LC duplex connectors and operates at 850 nm wavelength, supporting data rates up to 1.25 Gbps and reach up to 550 metres over multimode fiber. The module is housed in a lightweight aluminium casing and fits standard SFP interfaces for straightforward integration into compatible switches, routers and storage systems.

Advantages

The module follows MSA-compliant SFP form factor and is tested for compatibility with major hardware platforms that support the original Level One GVT-0300 1000Base-SX transceiver. Built with high-quality optical and electronic components, it provides stable optical transmission with resistance to electromagnetic interference and a long operational lifetime. Digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) is available when supported by host hardware, enabling remote measurement of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics GVT-0300-BO SFP into an available SFP port on compatible network equipment while the host device is powered down or following the equipment manufacturer’s hot-swap guidance. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable to the module and to the remote transceiver or patch panel, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status and speed via the host device management interface and, if available, access DDM/DOM readings to monitor optical parameters. Follow the host equipment vendor instructions for any required firmware or compatibility settings.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 or appropriate multimode fiber and high-quality LC patch cords for best reach and signal integrity. Ensure the host device supports 1000Base-SX and DDM if you need diagnostic monitoring. Clean connector endfaces before mating and follow ESD precautions when handling SFP modules to maintain long-term performance.
