Key specifications

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics N-SFP-SX-BO into a compatible SFP port on a switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered down or following the device manufacturer’s hot-swapping instructions. Ensure the module is fully seated and secure the fiber connection using appropriate multimode LC connectors and patch cords rated for 850 nm. Verify link status via the host device’s interface indicators or management console and configure the port speed and duplex settings if required by the network equipment.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use high-quality multimode fiber and LC patch cords rated for 850 nm, keep fiber connectors clean and free of dust, and follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the transceiver. Match the transceiver’s specifications to the network equipment and cable plant to ensure optimal link performance.
