SFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics 551114-BO glasvezel 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 551114-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1.25 Gigabit Ethernet links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and is intended for long-distance single-mode fiber connections up to 40,000 m. The module uses an LC fiber connector and comes in a compact SFP form factor with a silver finish. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards and a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours provide predictable operational characteristics for network installations.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized SFP footprint for compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers and media converters. Its long maximum transfer distance supports metropolitan and long-haul links without additional optics. Low weight and a compact metal housing simplify installation and help maintain rack density. Regulatory compliance ensures the module meets common safety and electromagnetic standards.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber backbone links in campus and carrier networks
• Connecting switches and routers across long distances
• Fiber uplinks between data center racks and aggregation points
• Integration with media converters and SFP-capable network devices

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an appropriate SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered on or according to the host manufacturer's hot‑swap guidelines. Connect the LC-terminated single-mode fiber patch cord to the transceiver, taking care to align transmit and receive ports correctly. Confirm link status and data rate through the host device management interface and monitor for optical signal levels within recommended ranges. Follow standard ESD precautions when handling the module.

Recommendations

Use low-loss single-mode fiber and LC patch cords certified for the target distance. Verify compatibility with the host device firmware and consult port documentation for supported SFP modules. Avoid exposing the optical interface to dust—use dust caps when the transceiver is not connected. For long-term reliability, operate the module within the host device's specified temperature and power limits.
