Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics PN54024-BO 1250 Mbit/s LC

The BlueOptics PN54024-BO is a single-mode 1000BASE-LX SFP fiber optic transceiver module with an LC duplex interface and a maximum data rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Designed for insertion into SFP ports of network switches, routers and storage systems that support MSA-compliant 1000BASE-LX modules, the transceiver transmits and receives optical signals at 1310 nm and is intended for links over single-mode fiber. The module is compact, lightweight (0.02 kg) and finished in a silver housing, suitable for use in standard SFP slots.

Advantages

The module follows MSA form-factor and electrical specifications, enabling interoperability with equipment that supports Panasonic PN54024 / 1000BASE-LX compatible SFP transceivers. It supports up to 1.25 Gbit/s data throughput over single-mode fiber for distances specified by the 1000BASE-LX standard and uses an LC duplex connector for simultaneous transmit and receive channels. The transceiver includes features that enable reliable optical transmission, and units undergo compatibility testing to ensure fit and basic functionality in major hardware platforms.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet uplinks and switch-to-switch connections over single-mode fiber
• Connections between routers, storage systems and network appliances supporting SFP 1000BASE-LX
• Long-distance point-to-point fiber links where an LC duplex interface is required

How to use

Power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your network equipment vendor, then insert the BlueOptics PN54024-BO into an available SFP port until it seats firmly and the latch engages. Connect LC duplex single-mode patch cords to the module’s transmit and receive lanes as required, observing correct fiber polarity. Configure the host device’s interface settings (speed/duplex or auto-negotiation) according to network requirements and verify link status through the switch or router management interface. If supported by the host, enable or monitor Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) functions to view real-time metrics such as optical power and temperature.

Usage recommendations

Ensure compatible fiber type (single-mode) and correct LC duplex patch cords; verify that the target hardware supports 1000BASE-LX SFP modules and DDM/DOM if diagnostic monitoring is required. Observe ESD precautions when handling the transceiver and keep protective dust caps on unused connectors. For optimal range and performance, use high-quality single-mode patch cords and confirm polarity and connector cleanliness before powering the link.
