Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-GLS-BX10D-A-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-GLS-BX10D-A-BO is a single-port SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1250 Mbit/s optical data transmission. Encased in a compact metal housing and weighing approximately 3 g, this module operates from a 3.3 V supply and uses an SFP interface with an LC simplex connector suitable for single-mode fiber links. It supports bidirectional transmission with separate transmitter and receiver wavelengths and is intended for integration into networking equipment that accepts standard SFP modules.

Advantages

The module’s small metal form factor provides mechanical durability and thermal stability while remaining lightweight. Support for a 1250 Mbit/s maximum data rate and an industry-standard SFP interface enables straightforward interoperability with compatible switches, routers and other network devices. The LC simplex connection and single-mode operation make it suitable for point-to-point fiber links over longer distances compared with multimode solutions.

Suitable for

• 1.25 Gbps Ethernet and related optical network links
• Interconnects between switches, routers, and storage systems using single-mode fiber
• Long-distance point-to-point fiber connections requiring LC simplex connectors
• Environments where a compact, low-weight transceiver is required

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Connector: LC simplex (single fiber per direction)
• Power supply: 3.3 V operating voltage
• Housing material and colour: metal housing, silver
• Weight: approximately 0.003 kg
• Optical type: single-mode fiber support with separate transmit and receive wavelengths

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-GLS-BX10D-A-BO module into an SFP slot on a compatible networking device while the device is powered down or following the vendor’s hot-plug guidance. Connect an LC simplex single-mode fiber patch cord between the module and the corresponding remote transceiver, observing the correct transmit/receive orientation. Ensure the host device is configured for the intended data rate and protocol (for example, 1.25 Gbps Ethernet) and verify link status via the device interface. If supported by the host hardware, enable Digital Diagnostics (DDM/DOM) functions to monitor supply voltage, temperature, transmit/receive power and laser bias current for remote troubleshooting.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode LC simplex patch cords and proper patch panels to achieve optimal range and signal quality. Confirm compatibility of the host device with SFP transceivers and check whether Digital Diagnostics monitoring is supported to enable real-time link diagnostics. Follow ESD precautions when handling the module and avoid exposing the fiber ends to dust or physical stress.
