SFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics iGLC-BX20-D 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics iGLC-BX20-D 1250 Mbit/s is an SFP transceiver module designed for fiber optic network links. It provides a single-port SFP interface with support for a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s, enabling compatibility with standard SFP slots in switches, routers and media converters. The module is intended for point-to-point fiber connections where compact, hot-pluggable transceiver modules are required.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized SFP form factor, allowing easy installation and replacement in equipment with SFP ports. With support for 1250 Mbit/s throughput, it covers common 1 Gbps class applications while remaining backward-compatible with devices that accept SFP modules. Its compact design enables hot-swapping without powering down the host device, which simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime.

Suitable for

• Short- and mid-range fiber optic links in enterprise and carrier networks
• Upgrading or repairing SFP-capable switches, routers and media converters
• Point-to-point connections between network devices requiring a 1250 Mbit/s transceiver

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Port type: single optical port suitable for fiber connections
• Hot-pluggable design for in-service replacement
• Compatibility: designed for standard SFP interfaces in networking equipment

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an empty SFP slot of a compatible network device until it engages. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable to the module's optical port, ensuring correct connector type and polarity. Confirm link status on the host device and configure interface settings (speed, duplex or auto-negotiation) as required by your network equipment. To remove, power down the interface if recommended by the device manufacturer, unlock any retention mechanism and gently extract the module.

Recommendations

Use manufacturer-recommended fiber cables and connectors and verify compatibility with the host device's SFP interface. Observe electrostatic discharge precautions during handling, keep dust caps on the optical port when the module is not connected, and follow equipment-specific procedures for hot-swapping to avoid link interruptions.
