Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics J6FGD-BO SFP LC Aluminium

The BlueOptics J6FGD-BO SFP LC Aluminium is a single-mode fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1000BASE-LX applications. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this SFP module uses an LC duplex connector and operates with 1310 nm transmit and receive wavelengths. It follows MSA form-factor standards and is suitable for use in network equipment that supports standard 1.25 Gbps LX SFP transceivers, offering optical links up to 10 kilometers over single-mode fiber.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP module provides MSA-compliant mechanical compatibility and an aluminium enclosure for mechanical stability and heat dissipation. With LC duplex connectivity and 1310 nm optics, it supports long-reach gigabit Ethernet and related protocols while being lightweight and compact. The module is designed for interoperability with hardware that accepts standard 1000BASE-LX SFP transceivers and can support digital diagnostics if the host device exposes DDM/DOM functions.

Suitable for

• Long-reach gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fiber up to 10 km
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet and SDH/SONET interfaces at 1.25 Gbps
• Network equipment replacement or upgrades requiring SFP LC 1310 nm optics

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm transmit and receive
• Data rate: up to 1.25 Gbps (1000BASE-LX)
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Fiber type: Single-mode fiber
• Typical reach: up to 10 kilometers (depending on fiber and link budget)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on your switch, router or storage interface until it latches. Connect the LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cord, observing transmit-to-receive alignment between link endpoints. Verify link and data rate on the host device and enable any required port settings for 1000BASE-LX operation. If your hardware supports Digital Diagnostics (DDM/DOM), you can monitor optical parameters through the host management interface. Always follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the module and keep dust caps on the connector when the module is not in use.

Usage recommendations

Use quality single-mode fiber and LC patch cords matched to the module’s specifications, check host compatibility for 1000BASE-LX SFPs, and ensure proper transceiver insertion and fiber polarity to obtain reliable links. For monitoring and troubleshooting, enable DDM/DOM on supported systems and record optical power and temperature values during commissioning.
