SFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics SFPGE-11-SFP-SX-BO glasvezel 550 m

The BlueOptics SFPGE-11-SFP-SX-BO is a fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 1.25 Gbps optical communications over multimode fiber. Constructed with an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 grams, this compact SFP module supports short-range links up to 550 meters and uses an LC duplex optical connector. It is intended for installation in SFP ports of network devices that accept 1000Base-SX transceivers and follows common MSA form-factor and optical interface conventions to ensure interoperable physical connection.

Advantages

The module combines a compact aluminium enclosure with a lightweight design for easy handling and installation. It supports multimode fiber links to 550 m, enabling reliable short-reach optical connectivity while occupying a standard SFP slot. Compatibility with equipment that accepts 1000Base-SX SFP modules and the LC duplex connection style simplifies integration into existing networks. The balanced optical transmit and receive design allows simultaneous bidirectional data transfer over separate fibers.

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure the target device supports 1000Base-SX SFP transceivers and that the DDM/DOM features are supported if diagnostics are required. With power to the network device turned off or following hot-swap procedures recommended by the device vendor, insert the BlueOptics SFPGE-11-SFP-SX-BO into an available SFP slot until it latches. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the transceiver ports, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. After installation, verify link status and data rate on the device management interface and run any vendor-recommended diagnostics or link tests to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode fiber and LC duplex patch cords rated for 850 nm to achieve the specified 550 m range. Keep fiber connectors clean and use dust caps when transceivers are not connected. If remote monitoring of optical parameters is required, confirm that the host hardware supports DDM/DOM and enable the diagnostic functions in the device firmware.
