Optický SFP modul CBO SMC1GSFP-SX-BO 1000 Mbit/s 550 m

CBO SMC1GSFP-SX-BO is a fiber optic SFP transceiver designed for 1 Gbit/s Ethernet links over multimode fiber. The module supports a data rate of 1000 Mbit/s and an optical reach of up to 550 m, providing a compact, hot-pluggable interface for switches, routers and media converters. Its SFP form factor enables easy installation and replacement with minimal downtime, making it suitable for campus networks, building-to-building connections and short-range backbone segments.

Advantages

The BlueOptics fiber optic SFP module offers hot-pluggable installation and broad compatibility with SFP ports on network equipment. It supports multimode fiber at a 550 m reach, allowing flexible placement of network devices without the need for expensive cabling upgrades. The compact SFP form factor reduces space requirements in equipment racks and simplifies field replacement of faulty transceivers.

Suitable for

• 1 Gbit/s Ethernet links over multimode fiber
• Connecting switches and routers within and between buildings
• Replacing defective SFP transceivers in existing network equipment
• Short-range backbone and access network segments

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1000 Mbit/s
• Optical reach: up to 550 m over multimode fiber
• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Fiber type: multimode fiber (MMF)
• Typical application: Gigabit Ethernet

How to use

Install the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on a switch, router or media converter while the device is powered on or following the equipment manufacturer’s guidance for hot-plugging. Connect the multimode fiber patch cable to the optical interface, ensuring correct connector type and proper fiber polishing. Configure the network device for a 1 Gbit/s link if necessary and verify link status through the device management interface or indicator LEDs.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber with appropriate connectors and maintain proper fiber handling to avoid contamination or damage. Verify transceiver compatibility with the host equipment and firmware versions when integrating into heterogeneous networks. For runs approaching the 550 m limit, use certified fiber and test the link to ensure signal margin and reliable operation.
