Copper Transceiver Module BlueOptics AFCT-5715PZ-BO 1250 Mbit/s SFP

The BlueOptics AFCT-5715PZ-BO is a copper SFP transceiver module offering a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Designed for compact network installations, this SFP module features an SFP interface, grey housing and a lightweight construction of approximately 20 g. It supports reliable point-to-point connections and conforms to Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) mechanical and electrical dimensions for straightforward installation in compatible network equipment.

Advantages

The module provides a compact form factor and low weight that simplify installation in switches, routers and other SFP slots. With a 1250 Mbit/s maximum rate it supports standard gigabit-class links and common network protocols. Manufacturing and testing according to MSA-related quality practices ensures interoperability with hardware platforms that accept equivalent SFP transceivers. The straightforward copper SFP interface reduces complexity when replacing or upgrading transceivers.

Suitable for

• Upgrading or expanding gigabit network ports in switches and routers
• Short- to medium-range Ethernet links within data centers or server rooms
• Replacement of faulty or end-of-life SFP transceivers in compatible devices
• Use in mixed-vendor environments that accept MSA-compliant SFP modules

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Operating wavelength (transceiver optics equivalent): 1310 nm
• Connector type (typical for compatible modules): LC Duplex for fiber variants / SFP slot for copper usage
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Product colour: Grey
• Form factor: Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into an appropriate SFP slot of a powered-off or hot-pluggable compatible network device following the device manufacturer’s instructions. If using the module in an optical link, connect compatible LC duplex fiber patch cords to the module ports and ensure correct transmit/receive alignment. Verify that the host device recognizes the module and sets the appropriate link speed and protocol. For live networks, observe ESD precautions and ensure connectors and fibers are clean before mating.

Recommendations

Ensure your network equipment firmware supports third-party or equivalent SFP modules to access full functionality such as digital diagnostic monitoring. Use clean, appropriate-quality patch cords and maintain recommended ambient temperatures and humidity for optimal lifetime and link stability.
