SFP-transceiver BlueOptics SRX-SFP-1GE-SX-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SRX-SFP-1GE-SX-BO is an SFP transceiver module for fiber optic connections supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. The module has an SFP interface, a metal housing in silver colour and a lightweight design of approximately 20 g. It implements the 1000Base-SX optical standard with LC duplex connectivity for multimode fiber and is built to comply with Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) form factor and electrical specifications for hot-pluggable use in compatible networking equipment.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver offers a compact, hot-pluggable solution for short-range gigabit fiber links with an MTBF of around 1,000,000 hours translating to extended operating lifetime and reduced maintenance. The metal housing provides mechanical durability and helps with thermal dissipation. Support for standard 1000Base-SX optical signalling with LC duplex connectors enables interoperability with a wide range of switches, routers and storage systems that accept MSA-compliant SFP modules.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SRX-SFP-1GE-SX-BO module into a compatible SFP port on your switch, router or other networking device while the device is powered on or following the vendor’s hot-plug instructions. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module’s LC ports, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Configure the network device port for 1000Base-SX operation if required by the device firmware. Verify link status and diagnostics via the host device management interface to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber and appropriate LC duplex patch cords matched to the fiber type (OM1/OM2/OM3/OM4) to achieve expected reach. Confirm that the host device software supports third-party SFP modules and, where available, enable digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) in the host to monitor supply voltage, laser bias, optical power and temperature. Follow ESD precautions when handling the module and store unused transceivers with dust caps fitted.
