AddOn Huawei SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-BIDI Compatible TAA Compliant 1000Base-BX SFP Transceiver (SMF, 1310nmTx/1490nmRx, 10km, LC, DOM)

Engineered for exceptional reliability and performance in high-speed fiber networks, the AddOn Huawei SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-BIDI Compatible TAA Compliant 1000Base-BX SFP Transceiver is a BiDi (bidirectional) SFP designed to maximize efficiency over single-mode fiber. This compact, hot-pluggable module enables 1 Gbps uplinks across long-haul links with a pair of wavelengths on a single fiber, dramatically reducing fiber count while preserving full-duplex bandwidth. Built to meet demanding enterprise, data center, and campus networking requirements, this transceiver delivers precise laser performance, robust link integrity, and convenient remote diagnostics through Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM). Its TAA compliance ensures procurement flexibility for YSA/NA government and public sector deployments, making it a dependable choice for multi-vendor environments that rely on Huawei SFP ports and compatible BiDi transceivers.

• BiDi 1000BASE-BX operation over single-mode fiber: transmit at 1310 nm and receive at 1490 nm on a single fiber pair, allowing long-reach links (up to 10 km) with a reduced fiber footprint while maintaining full-duplex 1 Gbps performance.
• TAA compliant and Huawei SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-BIDI compatible: designed to meet government procurement requirements while ensuring plug-and-play compatibility with Huawei network gear and similar SFP-enabled platforms that support 1000BASE-BX BiDi semantics.
• Real-time diagnostics with DOM: built-in digital optical monitoring delivers live measurements of optical power, temperature, and other critical parameters, enabling proactive maintenance and rapid fault isolation to minimize downtime.
• Durable, hot-pluggable SFP form factor with LC duplex connector: standard SFP footprint fits into wide range of switches, routers, and media converters; the LC duplex interface provides a reliable, widely supported fiber connection with straightforward polarity alignment.
• Versatile deployment for enterprise, data center, and campus networks: ideal for edge-to-core uplinks, inter-switch links, and retrofits where multi-vendor interoperability is needed and fiber cost efficiency is paramount without sacrificing performance.

How to install AddOn Huawei SFP-GE-LX-SM1310-BIDI Compatible SFP Transceiver

• Power down and unplug the device hosting the SFP port to ensure safe installation and protect the module and port from static discharge.
• Insert the SFP module into the available SFP slot until it seats with a firm click; confirm the module is oriented correctly and fully engaged in the receptacle.
• Connect the fiber patch cable to the LC duplex connector on the transceiver, ensuring proper polarity: Tx on one end corresponds to Rx on the opposite end when paired with a BiDi counterpart.
• Power on the device and configure the port for 1 Gbps operation; if your equipment supports BiDi settings, enable 1000BASE-BX BiDi mode as required by the network design and ensure the remote end uses a matching transceiver.
• Verify link status and monitor DOM readings through the device’s management interface. Run basic connectivity tests and, if available, use optical monitoring data to validate power levels and temperature tolerances.

Frequently asked questions

• What is 1000BASE-BX BiDi and what does it enable? 1000BASE-BX BiDi is a bidirectional 1 Gbps Ethernet standard that uses a single fiber for both directions by allocating distinct wavelengths (1310 nm for Tx and 1490 nm for Rx). This approach halves fiber requirements for duplex links, reduces cabling complexity in campuses and data centers, and enables simpler, cost-effective scalability while preserving full-duplex performance.
• Is this transceiver compatible with devices other than Huawei? The module is designed to be Huawei-compatible and typically works in SFP-enabled devices that support 1000BASE-BX BiDi. However, cross-vendor compatibility depends on each device’s SFP compatibility matrix and configured BiDi pairing. Always confirm with your vendor or check the device’s interoperability guide before deployment.
• What is DOM and why should I care about it? Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) provides live feedback on optical power, temperature, supply voltage, and other critical parameters. With DOM, network administrators can perform proactive health checks, detect performance degradations early, and shorten troubleshooting times, contributing to higher uptime and predictable performance.
• What distance can I expect with this transceiver? The transceiver supports up to 10 kilometers on standard single-mode fiber, subject to fiber quality, attenuation, connectors, and overall link budget. Real-world distance may vary based on installation quality and network topology.
• Do I need special configuration after installing? Often plug-and-play is sufficient, but some switches or routers may require enabling 1000BASE-BX BiDi mode or setting the appropriate media type. Consult your device’s administrator guide for precise steps and ensure the remote end is configured with a compatible BiDi transceiver for a successful link.
