SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-GE-S10K-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-GE-S10K-BO is a single-mode fiber SFP transceiver module designed for 1250 Mbit/s optical data transmission at a wavelength of 1310 nm. Housed in a durable metal enclosure and compatible with standard SFP interfaces, this module supports LC duplex connections and is suitable for insertion into SFP slots of switches, routers and other network equipment that accept MSA-compliant SFP modules. It requires a 3.3 V supply and is intended for reliable point-to-point optical links up to typical single-mode distances.

Advantages

The module delivers gigabit-class performance with a transmit and receive wavelength of 1310 nm, providing stable optical signals over single-mode fiber. Its metal housing ensures mechanical robustness and EMI resistance while the SFP form factor offers hot-pluggable convenience and broad compatibility. The design follows MSA guidelines, enabling interoperability with many vendors' hardware that support standard 1000BASE-LX SFPs. Built-in digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) allow real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output and input power, and temperature where supported by the host device.

Suitable for

• Single-mode optical links between switches and routers
• Data center uplinks and server connectivity
• Longer-distance campus or metro Ethernet links (typical 1000BASE-LX use)
• Storage network connections and SAN interconnects that support SFP modules

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s (1.25 Gbit/s)
• Wavelength: 1310 nm (transmit and receive)
• Connector: LC duplex
• Optical fiber type: single-mode fiber (SMF)
• Operating voltage: 3.3 V
• Housing: metal enclosure for EMI shielding and mechanical protection
• Digital diagnostics monitoring: supported where host hardware supports DDM/DOM (MSA SFF-8472)

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-GE-S10K-BO by inserting the module into a compatible SFP slot on the target network device until it latches. Connect LC duplex single-mode patch cords to the transmitter and receiver ports, observing correct polarity. Ensure the host device is configured for the intended 1000BASE-LX link and that the supply voltage is 3.3 V as required by the SFP specification. If the host supports digital diagnostics, enable or query DDM/DOM via the management interface to read real-time optical and electrical parameters.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode LC patch cords and, for best results over longer distances, install fiber terminations via patch panels or pre-verified splices. Verify host-device compatibility with MSA-compliant 1000BASE-LX SFP modules and confirm support for DDM/DOM if remote diagnostic monitoring is required. Handle the module carefully to avoid contaminating fiber endfaces and follow standard ESD precautions during installation and removal.
