SFP transceiver BlueOptics SFP-DUAL-BX-U-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-DUAL-BX-U-BO is a compact fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for single-fiber bi-directional links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and operates at a transmit wavelength of 1310 nm. Compatible with Alcatel‑Lucent equipment, this silver-coloured module is intended for reliable data transmission over long distances in network installations where space and power consumption are constrained.

Advantages

The module delivers stable optical connectivity with support for up to 20,000 m transmission distance using single-mode fiber and an LC connector. Its small form factor follows the SFP standard, allowing hot-pluggable installation in supported switches and media converters. Weighing approximately 20 g, the transceiver provides a low-profile, low-weight solution for extending network links without adding significant bulk.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP-DUAL-BX-U-BO into a compatible SFP port on the network device while the device is powered according to the vendor's hot-plug guidelines. Connect single-mode fiber using LC connectors and ensure correct alignment for the bi-directional single-fiber pair. Verify link status through the network device management interface and check optical power levels if available. Follow the host device documentation for any required compatibility or configuration settings specific to Alcatel‑Lucent equipment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use single-mode fiber rated for long-distance transmission and maintain clean LC connector end-faces. Confirm compatibility with the host device firmware and observe ESD precautions when handling the module. If parity or link issues occur, inspect fiber polarity and test optical power to ensure signals meet the device input specifications.
