Fiber optic transceiver CBO AFBR-57L5APZ-BO 1000 Mbit/s 850 nm

CBO AFBR-57L5APZ-BO is a fiber optic transceiver that supports 1000 Mbit/s data rate over multimode fiber at an 850 nm wavelength. Designed for short-range links, this module provides Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for network switches, servers and storage systems in data center and enterprise environments. Its compact form factor and standard electrical interface allow straightforward installation and hot-swap replacement when maintaining or expanding network infrastructure.

Advantages

The transceiver offers stable 1 Gbps throughput with low-latency transmission on multimode fiber, suitable for short-range optical connections. Built to industry-standard dimensions and signaling, it simplifies integration with a wide range of networking equipment. The module’s optical wavelength of 850 nm and multimode design deliver cost-effective links for access, aggregation and rack-level interconnects while minimizing cabling complexity.

Suitable for

• Short-range Gigabit Ethernet links within data centers
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections in enterprise networks
• Storage area network (SAN) front-end or backup connectivity
• Network upgrade projects requiring plug-and-play transceivers

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1000 Mbit/s (1 Gbps)
• Operating wavelength: 850 nm
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Typical application distance: short-range multimode links (link distance depends on fiber grade and transceiver class)
• Form factor: compact transceiver module compatible with standard host interfaces

How to use

Install the module into a compatible transceiver slot on a switch, server NIC or storage array following the equipment vendor’s instructions. Connect multimode fiber patch cords with appropriate connectors and ensure proper polarity. After insertion, verify link status and network configuration on the host device; the module supports hot-swap replacement, allowing removal and replacement without powering down compatible equipment. Observe handling precautions for optical components and avoid looking directly into active fiber ends.

Recommendations

Choose multimode fiber of appropriate grade (for example OM3/OM4 where applicable) to achieve intended link distances and performance. Keep patch cords and connectors clean, and follow manufacturer guidelines for maximum operating temperature and optical budget to ensure reliable 1 Gbit/s operation.
