10/100BASE-T SFPJuniper Networks SFP-GE40KT14R13 Compatible 1G SFP Transceiver Module
Built for hosts recognizing SFP-GE40KT14R13, this HT-manufactured SFP module delivers 1G transmission at 1490nm-TX/1310nm-RX. Its rated reach is 40km, with Simplex LC as the physical interface. The specifications and engineering guidance below support high-density deployments balance optical performance, port access and thermal planning, while keeping HT manufacture separate from the OEM cross-reference.

Applications and Optical Link Design
This BiDi interface is useful where only one fiber strand is available between two sites or racks. It must be paired with the complementary wavelength direction: one end transmits on the wavelength that the other end receives. Verify the paired part number, connector polish and fiber plant before installation, and measure link loss against the specified optical budget.
Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 1G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a SFP housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.
This single-fiber interface must be paired with the complementary wavelength direction. One end transmits on the wavelength the other receives. Verify connector polish and measure loss over the 40km design range before service.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Each SFP-GE40KT14R13 compatible module is inspected, powered up and functionally checked before protective packing. Dust caps and individual trays shield the interface during transport. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling
For this model, the specified transmit-power range is -5~0dBm; receiver sensitivity is < -23dBm. A sound acceptance record includes link state, diagnostic temperature, supply voltage and transmit or receive levels where the host exposes them. Compare the readings with the stated ranges rather than treating any received light as proof of adequate margin. Persistent alarms or borderline values should trigger an end-face and complete-channel inspection. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.
High-Density Port and Thermal Planning
In a densely populated chassis, connector access and airflow form part of the optical-link design. Confirm that neighboring modules and patch leads leave room for latch operation, and include listed power consumption in the host thermal budget. Assess port density together with fiber management. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 1.25Gbps, wavelength 1490nm-TX/1310nm-RX, rated reach 40km.
Ordering Information
Quote HT part number SFP-1G43-BX40 together with OEM reference SFP-GE40KT14R13 and quantity. Add the host model and software release when pre-order verification is required. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.
Juniper Networks Compatibility and Factory Testing
The module is checked for host recognition as SFP-GE40KT14R13, link establishment and diagnostic reporting. Physical cage fit alone is not treated as evidence of compatibility. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original Juniper Networks transceiver?
No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible alternative for equipment that specifies SFP-GE40KT14R13, not an original Juniper Networks-branded module.
Which fiber and connector are required?
Use Simplex LC with SMF. The specified maximum reach is 40km, subject to fiber quality and total link loss.
Can it be mixed with another wavelength or reach version?
Only when the two ends share the same optical standard, wavelength plan and supported data rate. Check the exact part numbers and link budget rather than relying only on the module form factor.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
