SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-6D-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-6D-BO is a single-port fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 1250 Mbit/s (1.25 Gbit/s) data transmission over single-mode fiber at a wavelength of 1310 nm. Housed in a compact metal enclosure and weighing approximately 3 g, the module operates from a 3.3 V input and features an SFP+ interface with an LC duplex optical connector compatible with MSA standards. It is intended for use in networking equipment that accepts standard SFP form-factor transceivers and supports long-reach optical links.

Advantages

The module combines a durable metal housing with a lightweight design for easy handling and installation. Compliance with MSA interface dimensions and LC duplex connectivity ensures wide compatibility with switches, routers and storage equipment that support standard SFP modules. Operation at 1310 nm and a 1250 Mbit/s line rate supports Ethernet and other serial optical protocols for distances up to typical single-mode ranges. The device’s design allows for extended operational life and low form-factor integration into existing ports.

Suitable for

• 1 Gbit/s Ethernet links over single-mode fiber
• Long-reach optical connections between switches, routers and storage devices
• Replacement or upgrade of SFP ports that accept MSA-compliant LC duplex transceivers
• Environments requiring compact, low-weight transceivers with a metal housing

How to use

Install the transceiver into an available SFP/SFP+ slot on compatible networking equipment by aligning the module with the slot and gently inserting until it latches. Use a matched LC duplex single-mode patch cable to connect the transmit and receive fibers to the remote transceiver or patch panel. Ensure the host device supports the required data rate and optical wavelength and that any DDM/DOM monitoring features are supported by the equipment if diagnostic readouts are required. Follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions and remove protective caps from the optical ports only immediately before making the fiber connection.

Usage recommendations

For optimal link performance, use high-quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and verify polarity. Confirm compatibility with the host device firmware and enable digital diagnostics monitoring only if supported by the system to monitor supply voltage, laser bias, output/input power and temperature. Store unused modules in protective anti-static packaging and avoid mechanical shock or exposure to contaminants on the optical interfaces.
