SFP modul CBO SFP-1G-BX10-D 1G singlemode 10 km

The BlueOptics CBO SFP-1G-BX10-D is a compact SFP transceiver module that delivers 1 Gbps single-mode fiber connectivity for links up to 10 km. Designed for insertion into compatible network switches and routers that accept SFP form-factor modules, this transceiver supports fiber uplinks and point-to-point connections between sites. The module implements a bidirectional optical interface suitable for access networks, metro links and server uplinks where a reliable optical link over single-mode fiber is required.

Advantages

The SFP module provides a standardized SFP form factor for easy hot-plug installation and replacement. With 1 Gbps throughput and single-mode optics rated to 10 km, it enables long-reach connections without additional media converters. The device is compact and low-power, minimizing space and thermal impact in racks and chassis. Its bidirectional transmission reduces fiber cabling requirements by using a single fiber pair for uplink and downlink when paired with the complementary transceiver.

Suitable for

• Access network uplinks between distribution switches and aggregation points
• Metro links connecting buildings or sites within a city
• Server uplinks in data centers or server rooms requiring fiber connectivity
• Small to medium enterprise WAN connections over single-mode fiber

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps (Gigabit Ethernet compatible)
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber
• Maximum link distance: up to 10 km over single-mode fiber
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Optical interface: bidirectional (BX) for wavelength-separated transmit and receive
• Power consumption: low-power SFP class design
• Operating environment: standard commercial temperature range for networking equipment

How to use

Install the transceiver by inserting it into a compatible SFP slot on your network switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect single-mode fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports, observing correct orientation and, when applicable, matching wavelengths with the complementary module at the remote end. After physical installation, verify link status and speed via the host device management interface and ensure any required port configuration (speed/duplex, VLANs) is applied on the switch or router.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode patch cords and adhere to proper fiber handling procedures to avoid contamination and signal loss. Pair this bidirectional SFP with the matching complementary transceiver model at the far end to ensure correct wavelength pairing and reliable link performance. For installations near the limits of the 10 km range, verify link budget and consider optical attenuators or amplifiers only if necessary and compatible with the network design.
