BlueOptics OW4GPP-BO SFP28 Transceiver 25GBASE-SR Dell-Compatible 850nm 100m LC-Duplex

The BlueOptics OW4GPP-BO is an SFP28 transceiver delivering 25 Gbps over multimode fiber for short-range 25 Gigabit Ethernet links. With a reach of up to 100 meters on OM3/OM4 fiber and an 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, it provides a cost-effective upgrade path for high-density data center and enterprise networks. Fully compliant with the 25GBASE-SR standard and MSA specifications, this hot-pluggable module ensures seamless interoperability with Dell and other MSA-compliant equipment.

Advantages

This transceiver combines high performance with low power consumption, typically under 1.0 W, reducing operating costs and thermal load in dense deployments. Digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) enables real-time monitoring of key parameters such as optical power, temperature, and voltage, simplifying network management. The LC-Duplex connector and standard SFP28 form factor allow for easy installation and replacement without disrupting network operations.
