Modulo ricetrasmettitore SFP BlueOptics SFP-16-BO 1250 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-16-BO is a compact SFP transceiver module designed for fiber-optic networking. It supports a maximum data rate of 1250 Mbit/s over multimode fiber at an 850 nm wavelength. Housed in a metal casing and powered by a 3.3 V input, the module is lightweight (approximately 3 g) and compatible with standard SFP ports using an LC duplex optical connector. The module implements 1000Base-SX transmission characteristics and is suitable for short-range optical links up to several hundred meters depending on fiber type and conditions.

Advantages

The module provides reliable gigabit-class data transmission with low power consumption and a standardized SFP form factor for broad compatibility. Its metal housing supports heat dissipation and mechanical robustness, while compliance with MSA SFP specifications ensures interoperability with network switches, routers and storage interfaces that accept 1000Base-SX SFP transceivers. Digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) support is available on compatible host hardware, enabling real-time monitoring of operating parameters.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-16-BO by inserting the module into an empty SFP port on compatible network equipment until it latches. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the transmitter and receiver ports, ensuring the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) ends are correctly matched to the far-end transceiver. Confirm the host device recognizes the transceiver and, if supported, enable or read DDM/DOM diagnostics via the management interface. Observe ESD precautions when handling the module and avoid touching the fiber endfaces; keep protective caps on unused connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal link performance, use high-quality multimode fiber (OM3/OM4 where higher reach or margin is needed), proper LC duplex patch cords, and ensure connectors are clean. Verify host device compatibility with 1000Base-SX SFP modules and enable DDM/DOM monitoring to track voltage, laser current, optical power and temperature when supported. Store unused modules in anti-static packaging and replace dust caps after installation.
