SFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics SFP-GE-L 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-GE-L is a fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for Gigabit Ethernet links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and operates at a center wavelength of 1310 nm. The module is intended for installation in SFP-compatible ports on switches, routers and media converters where reliable single-mode fiber transmission is required. The compact SFP form factor and standardized electrical interface allow easy hot-plug insertion and interoperability with networking equipment that supports 1 Gbps optical modules.

Advantages

The BlueOptics SFP-GE-L offers standard SFP compatibility for flexible deployment and straightforward replacement or upgrades in existing network hardware. Operation at 1310 nm provides stable single-mode fiber performance for medium- to long-reach links, while the 1250 Mbit/s rate ensures support for Gigabit Ethernet traffic. Being a small form-factor pluggable transceiver, it simplifies inventory management and reduces physical space requirements in rack-mounted equipment.

Key specifications

How to use

Power down is not required for insertion in most devices that support hot-pluggable SFP modules; align the module with the SFP cage and slide it in until the latch secures it. Connect the single-mode fiber patch cable to the optical port, ensuring correct connector type and proper end-face cleanliness. Configure the host device for the corresponding optical interface if necessary (for example enabling the port or setting speed/duplex/auto-negotiation parameters). Monitor link status LEDs on the host device to verify an active connection and run basic connectivity tests such as ping and throughput checks to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Store and install the transceiver in a clean, dry environment and avoid touching the optical connector end-face. Use compatible single-mode fiber cables and follow manufacturer guidelines for fiber handling and connector cleaning to maintain signal integrity and module lifespan.
