SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-BX1D-AX-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-BX1D-AX-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. The module comes in a metal housing with a silver finish and weighs 20 g, offering a compact solution for 1.25 Gbit/s optical connections. It conforms to CE, RoHS and FCC standards and uses an LC simplex interface compatible with MSA-compliant SFP ports. The transceiver implements bidirectional single-fiber operation with separate transmit and receive wavelengths to support point-to-point fiber links.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a compact SFP form factor for easy hot-pluggable installation in switches, routers and other network equipment that accept MSA-compatible SFP modules. Its metal housing helps with mechanical stability and heat dissipation while the silver color matches common networking hardware. Compliance with CE, RoHS and FCC standards ensures regulatory conformity for installation in commercial environments. The module’s low weight and standard interface simplify integration into existing fiber infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber point-to-point connections up to 1.25 Gbit/s
• Hot-pluggable upgrades and replacements in network switches and routers
• Data center uplinks and inter-rack fiber links
• Telecom and carrier access links requiring LC simplex connectors

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (MSA-compliant)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Fiber type: single-mode with LC simplex connector
• Transceiver wavelengths: bidirectional operation with separate Tx/Rx wavelengths (typical for BX transceivers)
• Housing: metal, silver colour
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Regulatory compliance: CE, RoHS, FCC

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-BX1D-AX-BO by inserting it into an empty SFP port on compatible networking equipment until it clicks into place. Connect a single-mode LC simplex fiber patch cord between the module and the corresponding remote transceiver, ensuring correct orientation for transmit and receive fibers. The module supports hot-plug operation; remove or insert the transceiver only following your hardware vendor’s guidelines and while observing ESD precautions. Verify link status through the host device’s management interface and confirm that any required DDM/DOM support is enabled if diagnostic monitoring is needed.

Usage recommendations

Use factory-tested single-mode LC patch cords and compatible SFP ports to achieve optimal link quality. Ensure the host device officially supports MSA SFP modules and, if required, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) in the host to read real-time parameters such as optical power and temperature. Store and handle the transceiver in a clean, dry environment and follow ESD-safe procedures during installation or removal.
