SFP fiber optic transceiver CBO AFCT-5765TLZ 1000Base-SX 850nm

The BlueOptics SFP fiber optic transceiver AFCT-5765TLZ is a compact, hot-pluggable module supporting Gigabit Ethernet 1000Base-SX at an 850 nm wavelength. Designed for short-range multimode fiber links, this SFP transceiver fits standard SFP ports in switches, routers and servers and uses a duplex LC connector for easy duplex multimode connections. Its form factor and data-rate compatibility make it suitable for upgrading network equipment and establishing reliable short-distance optical links in campus and data center environments.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver offers a small, hot-swappable package that minimizes downtime during installation or replacement. Optimized for multimode fiber, it provides stable Gigabit Ethernet performance over short distances at 850 nm and uses a standard duplex LC interface for broad compatibility. The module conforms to common SFP mechanical and electrical specifications, enabling straightforward interoperability with network devices that accept SFP transceivers.

Suitable for

• Short-range fiber links in campus networks
• Interconnects within data centers using multimode fiber
• Upgrading switches, routers and servers to Gigabit optical ports
• Redundant or backup optical paths over multimode cabling

Key specifications

• Standard: 1000Base-SX Gigabit Ethernet
• Wavelength: 850 nm
• Connector type: Duplex LC
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Form factor: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Data rate: 1.25 Gbit/s (optical)
• Typical reach: short-range multimode links (depends on fiber type and modal bandwidth)

How to use

Install the transceiver into an available SFP slot on the network device while the device is powered on or follow the device vendor’s hot-swap guidelines. Connect duplex multimode LC patch cables between the module and the remote transceiver, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. After insertion and cable connection, verify link status and speed through the switch or router management interface. If necessary, adjust device port settings to enable auto-negotiation for Gigabit Ethernet.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use multimode fiber and LC patch cords that match the modal bandwidth and distance requirements of your installation. Check compatibility with your network equipment for SFP transceiver support and monitor link LED indicators or management software after installation to confirm a stable Gigabit connection.
