Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 852-1210-BO 1250 Mbit/s LC

The BlueOptics 852-1210-BO is a fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 1.25 Gbit/s (1250 Mbit/s) optical links. It uses an LC duplex interface and a single-mode optical channel with 1310 nm transmitter and receiver wavelengths to carry data over long distances. The module is compact and lightweight (approx. 20 g) with a silver housing and follows standard SFP form-factor conventions for insertion into compatible network hardware.

Advantages

This SFP module supports data rates up to 1250 Mbit/s and is designed to meet common MSA SFP mechanical and electrical standards, enabling straightforward interoperability with equipment that accepts standard SFP transceivers. The LC duplex connector allows simultaneous transmit and receive on a two-fiber single-mode link. Its small, lightweight design facilitates easy handling and installation in switches, routers and other SFP-capable devices.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet fiber uplinks and backbone connections
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet and other 1.25 Gbit/s optical protocols
• Long-distance single-mode fiber runs where 1310 nm operation is required
• Replacement or expansion of SFP slots in network switches, routers and storage systems

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics 852-1210-BO SFP module into an empty SFP cage on a compatible switch, router or other network device while the host is powered down or according to the device vendor's hot-swap guidelines. Connect an LC duplex single-mode patch cable ensuring correct alignment of transmit and receive fibers. Verify link status and data rate in the host device management interface; the transceiver will operate at up to 1250 Mbit/s following the supported protocol (e.g., Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel). For diagnostics and monitoring, enable any available digital diagnostic (DDM/DOM) support on the host if the platform provides that function.

Usage recommendations

Use quality single-mode LC patch cords and compatible SFP-capable hardware to achieve rated performance. Confirm that your network equipment supports 1310 nm single-mode SFP transceivers and, if remote monitoring is required, ensure the host device supports DDM/DOM functions. Follow standard fiber handling best practices—keep connectors clean, avoid tight bends, and secure cables to prevent strain.
