SFP transceiver Ruijie Networks MINI-GBIC-LX-SM1310 1000 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The Ruijie Networks MINI-GBIC-LX-SM1310 is a single-port SFP fiber optic transceiver for 1 Gbit/s connections. Housed in a metallic enclosure, this compact module is intended for deployment in switches, routers and other network equipment that accept industry-standard SFP modules. It operates on single-mode fiber with a 1310 nm wavelength, enabling reliable data transmission over extended distances while conserving rack space and maintaining compatibility with SFP slots.

Advantages

The metallic housing provides mechanical robustness and improved heat dissipation compared with plastic housings. Support for 1 Gbit/s full-duplex operation ensures line-rate throughput for standard gigabit networks. Single-mode 1310 nm optics reduce dispersion over long spans, minimizing signal degradation and maintaining link integrity. The module conforms to common SFP form-factor dimensions and electrical interfaces for plug-and-play insertion into compatible network devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers across enterprise buildings using single-mode fiber
• Extending backbone links between telecommunication closets or data centers
• Replacing or upgrading existing SFP ports to enable 1 Gbit/s fiber links
• Integrating into rack-mounted networking equipment that supports hot-swappable SFP modules

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1000 Mbit/s (1 Gbit/s)
• Optical mode: single-mode
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Connector type: LC duplex (industry-standard SFP interface)
• Form factor: SFP (mini-GBIC) metal housing
• Transmission: full-duplex fiber optic link
• Typical reach: designed for extended-distance single-mode links (dependent on fiber and link budget)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an available SFP slot on compatible network equipment until it clicks into place, taking care to observe electrostatic discharge precautions. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the module with correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify that the host device recognizes the module and that the link indicators show an active connection. Configure network parameters on the connected devices as required for your topology and ensure fiber end-face cleanliness to avoid signal loss.

Usage recommendations

Use single-mode LC duplex patch cords with appropriate fiber connectors and maintain proper cleaning practices for fiber end faces. Confirm compatibility with the host device vendor if the equipment enforces vendor checks for SFP modules. Monitor link LEDs and perform optical power checks if troubleshooting link issues.
