Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics AFBR-725TMZ-BO SFP28 LC Aluminium 20g

The BlueOptics AFBR-725TMZ-BO SFP28 LC Aluminium 20g is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for short-range high-speed data transmission over multimode fiber. The module uses the SFP28 interface and an LC duplex connector and is housed in an aluminium casing weighing approximately 20 g. It supports 25G-class optical links for use in networking equipment that accepts SFP28 form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

This BlueOptics transceiver follows MSA SFP28 form-factor conventions and provides a compact, lightweight aluminum enclosure suitable for dense installations. The LC duplex connector enables simultaneous transmit and receive channels on paired multimode fiber. The module’s small size and SFP28 interface make it compatible with equipment designed for 25G optical connections, while the aluminium housing offers mechanical robustness and thermal conduction for stable operation.

Suitable for

• Short-range 25G optical links over multimode fiber in data centers
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems supporting SFP28
• High-density patch panels and server NIC connections requiring LC duplex modules

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP28
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: 20 g (0.02 kg)
• Designed for multimode fiber short-range 25G transmission

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AFBR-725TMZ-BO into a compatible SFP28 port until it latches, then connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cables to the module’s LC receptacle, observing correct Tx/Rx orientation. Ensure the host device supports SFP28 optical modules and that any required firmware or driver settings are configured for 25G operation. Power on the equipment and verify the link status and data transmission through the host interface diagnostics.

Recommendations

For optimal link performance use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber and quality LC patch cords, maintain proper bend radius for fibers, and confirm the host hardware supports SFP28 optical transceivers and any required digital diagnostics features before deployment.
