Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO AFCT-5760ALZ 1000Base-SX 850nm

BlueOptics Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO AFCT-5760ALZ 1000Base-SX 850nm is a compact SFP module designed for Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber. The module operates at an 850 nm wavelength and supports 1000Base-SX standard for short-range data transmission. It fits common SFP ports in switches, routers and other network equipment and is designed for easy hot-swap installation to minimize downtime during upgrades or maintenance.

Advantages

This fiber optic transceiver provides reliable short-range connectivity with low power consumption in a compact SFP form factor. Its support for 850 nm multimode fiber links ensures compatibility with standard SX infrastructure and multimode cable types. The hot-pluggable design simplifies replacement and expansion, while standardized electrical and optical interfaces facilitate interoperability with a wide range of networking devices.

Suitable for

• Short-range Gigabit Ethernet connections over multimode fiber (intra-building and data centre links)
• Integration into switches, routers and network interface modules with SFP ports
• Network upgrades, port expansions and spare parts for operational continuity

Key specifications

• Data rate: 1 Gbps (1000Base-SX)
• Wavelength: 850 nm
• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable), hot-pluggable
• Compatible fiber type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Typical reach: short-range multimode links (dependant on fiber type and insertion losses)
• Optical interface: duplex LC connector
• Power consumption: low-power design suitable for dense port deployments

How to use

Install the SFP transceiver into an available SFP port on the host device until it is seated and latched. Connect duplex multimode fiber with LC connectors, ensuring correct transmit/receive alignment. After physical installation the host device should detect the module automatically; verify link parameters through the device management interface. For removal, power down the port if recommended by the equipment manufacturer and release the module latch before extracting the transceiver.

Recommendations

Use certified multimode fiber (OM1–OM4) and ensure proper cleaning of LC connectors to maintain optical performance. Match the module to the host device's SFP compatibility list and observe manufacturer guidelines for handling ESD-sensitive components. For optimal reach and signal quality, consult link-loss budgets and avoid excessive cable bends or stress.
