SFP transceiver BlueOptics SFPGZX70D-BO 1250 Mbit/s 1550 nm

The BlueOptics SFPGZX70D-BO is an SFP transceiver module for single-mode fiber networks. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s at a wavelength of 1550 nm, is housed in a metal casing and requires a 3.3 V supply. The module is compact and lightweight (approximately 3 g) and uses an SFP interface with an LC duplex optical connector for bidirectional optical links over single-mode fiber.

Advantages

The module is compatible with equipment that accepts SFP form-factor transceivers and follows MSA standards, enabling straightforward hot-plug installation into switches, routers and other networking hardware. The metal housing provides mechanical durability and EMI shielding while the 1550 nm wavelength and single-mode design allow extended reach compared to multimode solutions. Low power (3.3 V) operation and a compact, lightweight design simplify integration into space-constrained systems.

Suitable for

• Point-to-point long-distance single-mode fiber links
• Integration into switches, routers and optical interfaces that support SFP transceivers
• Ethernet or Fibre Channel applications up to 1.25 Gbit/s
• Replacement or spare transceiver modules for network equipment accepting SFP

How to use

Power down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by your network equipment vendor, insert the BlueOptics SFPGZX70D-BO into an available SFP slot until it latches, and connect LC duplex single-mode patch cords to complete the optical link. Ensure the remote transceiver is configured for the same wavelength and supported protocol. Confirm link negotiation and status using the host device interface or management tools. If the host supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM), enable or read diagnostic values per the equipment instructions to monitor supply voltage, optical power and temperature where supported.

Recommendations

Use quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and proper fiber management to maintain optimal signal performance. Verify that the target device supports SFP transceivers and the 1550 nm wavelength before installation. For critical links, confirm DDM/DOM support on both transceiver and host to enable remote monitoring and troubleshooting.
