Glasvezel-transceivermodule BlueOptics GLC-ZX-SM-BO 1000 Mbit/s SFP 1550 nm

The BlueOptics GLC-ZX-SM-BO 1000 Mbit/s SFP 1550 nm is a single‑fiber small form‑factor pluggable transceiver module designed for long‑distance optical network links. It supports a data rate up to 1000 Mbit/s and transmits at a wavelength of 1550 nm. The module uses an SFP interface and is housed in a silver-coloured metal casing. It is RoHS‑compliant and intended for integration into switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP form factor modules.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP form factor that allows hot‑swappable installation and broad compatibility with network equipment supporting SFP ports. Operating at 1550 nm enables extended reach over single‑mode fiber compared with shorter wavelengths. Its silver metal housing offers mechanical durability and EMI shielding while the 1000 Mbit/s capability supports gigabit Ethernet links and similar network applications.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP port on your network device while the device is powered according to the equipment manufacturer’s instructions for hot‑swap modules. Connect the single‑mode fiber cable with the appropriate connector type to the transceiver’s optical interface, verify proper seating and secure any dust caps until connection. After physical installation, confirm link status and configure interface settings on the network device as required for gigabit operation and duplex settings.

Recommendations

Use clean, certified single‑mode fiber cables and inspect connectors before mating to avoid signal loss. Ensure the connected equipment supports 1550 nm SFP transceivers and compatible data rates; follow the host device vendor’s guidelines for module compatibility and temperature/environmental limits.
