SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-4210-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-4210-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single‑mode networks. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s at a wavelength of 1310 nm and uses an LC duplex optical interface. The module is housed in metal, operates from a 3.3 V supply and weighs approximately 3 g. It is intended for reliable point‑to‑point optical links and supports common protocols for gigabit optical transmission over distances typical for 1000BASE‑LX applications.

Advantages

This transceiver provides standardized SFP form factor compatibility and follows MSA guidelines, ensuring interchangeability with equipment that supports 1000BASE‑LX SFP modules. The metal housing offers mechanical robustness and EMI shielding while the 1310 nm wavelength and single‑mode operation enable long‑reach optical links. Low weight and compact dimensions simplify installation in switches, routers or other network devices. The module is suitable for environments that require predictable optical performance and straightforward integration.

Suitable for

• Single‑mode fiber Ethernet links (1000BASE‑LX)
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• Optical uplinks and aggregation ports in enterprise and carrier networks
• Low‑latency point‑to‑point installations over several kilometers

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP‑4210‑BO by inserting the module into an SFP slot of a compatible network device while the device is powered down or following hot‑swap guidance from the device manufacturer. Connect LC duplex single‑mode patch cords to the module and to the remote transceiver or patch panel, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status and negotiated speed on the host device. If available, enable and read digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) through the host to monitor supply voltage, laser bias and optical power parameters for preventive maintenance.

Usage recommendations

Use single‑mode LC duplex patch cords of appropriate quality and length to achieve optimal reach and signal integrity. Confirm that the host device supports 1000BASE‑LX SFP modules and DDM/DOM if you intend to use diagnostic monitoring. Avoid exposing the optical connector end faces to dirt or damage; always use dust caps when the module is not connected.
