SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFPGSX2D-W-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFPGSX2D-W-BO is an SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1250 Mbit/s (1.25 Gbit/s) line rates at a 1310 nm wavelength. Housed in a metal enclosure and powered from a 3.3 V supply, the module provides a compact, lightweight (2 g) solution for single-fiber duplex optical links using an LC duplex connector and supports transmission over multimode fiber when used within the specified link budget and distance limits.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver implements industry-standard MSA form factor and electrical interface, enabling broad compatibility with switches, routers and other network devices that accept SFP modules. The metal housing improves mechanical durability and shielding. With a 1310 nm laser transmitter and receiver pair, the module supports common high-speed protocols up to 1250 Mbit/s while keeping a small physical footprint and low power requirement.

Suitable for

• 1 Gbit/s Ethernet and other 1250 Mbit/s optical links
• Connecting switches, routers, storage systems and load balancers supporting SFP modules
• Short- to medium-range multimode fiber connections where 1310 nm operation is appropriate
• Network upgrades or replacements requiring a compact, hot-pluggable transceiver

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (LC duplex)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s (1.25 Gbit/s)
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Operating voltage: 3.3 V
• Housing: metal enclosure
• Weight: approximately 0.002 kg
• Connector type: LC duplex

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFPGSX2D-W-BO by inserting the module into a compatible SFP slot on the network device until it clicks into place; the module is hot-pluggable so the host device does not need to be powered down in most cases. Terminate the fiber with a matching LC duplex connector and ensure correct transmit/receive alignment between transceivers. Verify that the host device recognizes the module and that link status and speed settings match the expected 1.25 Gbit/s operation. If available, enable digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) support in the host to monitor operating parameters.

Usage recommendations

Use quality LC duplex patch cords and proper multimode fiber patch panels to maintain link performance. Confirm that your network equipment firmware and hardware officially support third-party SFP modules or allow auto-negotiation with non-vendor-branded transceivers. For reliable operation, observe manufacturer ambient temperature ranges, keep connectors clean and use ESD-safe handling when installing the module.
