Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 3CC50167AA-BO SFP LC Aluminium 20g

The BlueOptics 3CC50167AA-BO SFP LC Aluminium 20g is a fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for reliable short-range multimode optical data transmission. It features an LC duplex connector, an SFP interface and an aluminium housing with a net weight of approximately 20 g. The module supports 1000Base-SX class transmission using an 850 nm transmitter and receiver pair for multimode fiber links and is suitable for insertion into MSA-compliant SFP ports on compatible network equipment.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP module is manufactured to MSA-compatible mechanical and electrical standards to ensure interoperability with major networking platforms that accept 1000Base-SX SFPs. The aluminium housing provides mechanical stability and thermal dissipation while the compact SFP form factor enables straightforward hot-plug installation. The module supports simultaneous transmit and receive over LC duplex multimode fiber and is suitable for common Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet applications up to gigabit rates.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode fiber links (campus, data center patching)
• 1 Gbps Ethernet uplinks and inter-switch connections
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet and general storage networking
• Replacement or expansion in equipment that supports 1000Base-SX SFP modules

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (hot-pluggable)
• Connector: LC duplex
• Optical wavelength: 850 nm transmitter and receiver (multimode)
• Supported data rate: 1.25 Gbps (1000Base-SX class)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Insert the SFP module into a compatible SFP slot on the network device following the device manufacturer's instructions for hot-plug modules. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module's LC ports, observing correct transmit/receive alignment. Verify link status on the host device and configure any required network interface settings. If the host device supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable and monitor diagnostic parameters according to the equipment documentation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use multimode fiber and LC patch cords rated for 850 nm transmission and adhere to recommended distance limits for the chosen multimode grade. Confirm compatibility with the target switch, router or storage system and ensure any required DDM/DOM support is enabled in host firmware for real-time diagnostics. Handle the module by its housing, protect fiber endfaces from contamination, and follow ESD precautions during installation.
