Ricetrasmettitore SFP BlueOptics SFP-ZX-40-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1550 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-ZX-40-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode links with a nominal data rate of 1250 Mbit/s and an operating wavelength of 1550 nm. Housed in a compact metal case and powered from a 3.3 V supply, this small silver transceiver provides a long-reach 1000BASE-EX-compatible interface with LC duplex connectivity, supporting optical links over extended distances while remaining compatible with equipment that accepts standard SFP modules.

Advantages

The metal housing offers mechanical durability and thermal stability while keeping weight to a minimum (around 3 g). The module follows MSA SFP form-factor conventions and supports optical transmission and reception at 1550 nm, enabling long-distance single-mode fiber links. Digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) compatibility facilitates remote monitoring of key parameters when supported by host hardware, and the module is intended to meet common interoperability requirements for Ethernet and similar high-speed protocols.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP-ZX-40-BO into a compatible SFP slot on the network device while the device is powered down or following the vendor’s hot-swap guidance. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports, ensuring correct orientation for transmit/receive pairing. Configure the host device to use the SFP port at 1000BASE-EX or the applicable 1.25 Gbit/s interface mode and verify link status. If DDM/DOM is required, enable or query diagnostics through the host management interface and monitor parameters such as supply voltage and optical power.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and follow the equipment vendor’s compatibility list. Ensure the host device supports DDM/DOM if remote diagnostics are required. Avoid bending fibers beyond their minimum bend radius and keep connectors clean to maintain optimal link performance.
