Módulo transceptor de fibra óptica BlueOptics GSLCLC80-ZX-BO SFP LC Aluminio

The BlueOptics GSLCLC80-ZX-BO SFP LC Aluminium is a single‑mode fiber optic transceiver module designed for long‑reach 1000BASE‑ZX links. It uses LC duplex connectors and an aluminium housing, providing a compact SFP form factor for insertion into compatible network switches, routers and optical equipment. The module supports optical transmission and reception at 1550 nm, enabling data transfer over distances up to approximately 80 kilometres when used with appropriate single‑mode fiber and network components.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver follows MSA standards and is offered as a compatible alternative for systems that support the corresponding long‑reach 1000BASE‑ZX module. The aluminium housing combines low weight with mechanical durability, and the LC duplex interface enables simultaneous transmit and receive channels on a two‑fiber link. The module is engineered for compatibility with major hardware platforms, supports common protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet, and is suitable for installation into standard SFP slots.

Suitable for

• Long‑distance Gigabit Ethernet links over single‑mode fibre (up to ~80 km)
• Interconnection of switches, routers and optical network equipment
• Data centre uplinks and metropolitan network backbones
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet and SDH/SONET applications requiring 1.25 Gbit/s optics

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (small form‑factor pluggable)
• Connector: LC duplex
• Wavelength: 1550 nm (Tx/Rx)
• Protocol support: 1000BASE‑ZX (1.25 Gbit/s)
• Recommended fibre type: single‑mode fibre
• Typical reach: up to 80 km (depends on fiber and link budget)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: 0.02 kg

How to use

Install the transceiver into an available SFP port on compatible networking hardware while the device is powered down or following the host vendor's hot‑swap instructions. Connect LC duplex single‑mode patch cords to the Tx and Rx ports, ensuring correct polarity. Verify link status in the host device interface and confirm that supported transmission modes (such as 1000BASE‑ZX) are enabled in the configuration. If available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) on the host to monitor real‑time optical parameters including supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and module temperature.

Recommendations

Use high‑quality single‑mode patch cords and maintain correct connector cleanliness to ensure reliable long‑range links. Confirm host compatibility and, if applicable, enable DDM/DOM support in the equipment to monitor module health. For best performance, follow fiber vendor guidelines for attenuation and connectorization and perform end‑to‑end link testing after installation.
