SFP transceiver BlueOptics MGBIC-08 1250 Mbit/s 1550 nm

The BlueOptics MGBIC-08 1250 Mbit/s 1550 nm is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for point-to-point and network link applications. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and transmits at a wavelength of 1550 nm. The module is compact and lightweight, with a silver housing that fits standard SFP slots and is suitable for insertion into switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides reliable single-mode optical connectivity at 1550 nm with a 1250 Mbit/s data rate. Its compact SFP interface ensures compatibility with many networking devices that support hot-pluggable transceivers. The lightweight metal housing offers physical robustness while helping to dissipate heat, and the silver finish is compatible with typical network equipment aesthetics.

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP transceivers and is powered off or that the system allows hot-plugging. Insert the BlueOptics MGBIC-08 into an empty SFP slot until it seats firmly and the ejector catches. Connect a compatible single-mode fiber cable with appropriate connectors to the transceiver's optical port, observing correct transmitter/receiver alignment. Power up the host device or verify link status if hot-plugged; the network interface should negotiate the connection at the supported data rate.

Recommendations

For best results, use single-mode fiber rated for 1550 nm and confirm compatibility of the host equipment with standard SFP modules. Avoid excessive mechanical stress on the fiber and protect transceiver optical interfaces from dust when not connected. Follow your network equipment vendor’s guidance on supported transceiver models and firmware compatibility.
