SFP transceiver BlueOptics A1PN-BO, LC-Duplex, 1000BASE-LX, singlemode 1310nm, 10 km, DDM

BlueOptics A1PN-BO SFP transceiver is a single‑mode 1000BASE‑LX module designed for standard Gigabit Ethernet fiber links. It uses an LC duplex connector and transmits at 1310 nm to support data transport over distances up to 10 km. The module includes Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) for real‑time monitoring of optical parameters and operates across an industrial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. It is intended for installation in network switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP LX optics.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides stable 1 Gbps fiber connectivity over single‑mode cabling with an LC duplex interface and a 10 km reach, making it suitable for campus and metro links. Integrated DDM enables monitoring of optical power, temperature and bias current, which assists in diagnostics and maintenance. The module’s standard SFP form factor ensures broad compatibility with devices that support 1000BASE‑LX SFP optics and allows hot‑swappable replacement without powering down equipment.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on your switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect LC duplex single‑mode fiber patch cords with correct TX/RX orientation. Verify link status on the host device and, if supported, read DDM parameters through the device management interface to confirm optical power and module health. For hot‑swap replacement, remove the module using the release mechanism and insert the replacement while the system remains powered, following your equipment vendor’s guidelines.

Recommendations

Use single‑mode fiber of appropriate quality and adhere to correct connector polishing and cleanliness practices to maintain low insertion loss. Check compatibility notes of the host equipment regarding supported SFP modules and enable DDM monitoring where available to track signal levels and module parameters for proactive maintenance.
