ricetrasmettitore SFP Blueop GLC-EX-SMD-BO 1000BASE-EX singlemode 40 km

Blueop GLC-EX-SMD-BO is a compact SFP transceiver module that supports 1000BASE-EX operation over single-mode fiber for links up to 40 km. Designed for insertion into compatible SFP ports, this transceiver provides a Gigabit Ethernet optical interface for switches, routers and media converters. The module is intended for long-distance uplinks in campus, data center and metro network environments where single-mode fiber connectivity is required.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers a standard-compliant Gigabit fiber link with small form-factor packaging, enabling space-saving deployment in network equipment. Its single-mode operation and 40 km reach make it suitable for extended point-to-point connections without the need for intermediate repeaters. Designed for hot-pluggable installation, it allows fast replacement or upgrade of optical interfaces with minimal downtime.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or media converter while the device is powered on or off, following the equipment manufacturer’s guidance for hot-plug handling. Connect an LC-terminated single-mode fiber patch cable to the transceiver’s LC connector, ensuring proper transmit/receive orientation. Configure the network port as necessary on the host device to enable Gigabit Ethernet operation and verify link status and optical levels via the network equipment management interface.

Recommendations

Install the module in devices that explicitly support SFP 1000BASE-EX optics and single-mode fiber. Use LC duplex single-mode patch cables with appropriate end-face cleanliness and strain relief. For links approaching the 40 km limit, verify optical budget and consider attenuation from connectors and splices; perform link testing after installation to confirm signal quality.
