Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics AFCT-5715PZ-BC-BO 10000 m

The BlueOptics AFCT-5715PZ-BC-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module for single-mode links up to 10,000 m. Housed in an aluminium case and weighing approximately 20 g, this compact module follows MSA form-factor standards and uses an LC duplex connector for optical transmit and receive. It is intended for integration into network devices that accept SFP modules and supports 1.25 Gbit/s class optical transmission on single-mode fiber.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP form factor with an aluminium enclosure for thermal stability and mechanical protection. It is delivered individually packaged for easy storage and deployment. Compatibility with common SFP interfaces and adherence to MSA form-factor conventions simplify replacement and integration into existing networking equipment. Low weight and standard LC duplex connectivity make it suitable for dense rack environments and fibre patch panels.

Suitable for

• Single-mode fiber links requiring up to 10 km reach
• Switches and routers with SFP ports that support 1.25 G optical modules
• Data center uplinks and campus backbone segments
• Connections via LC duplex patch cords and patch panels

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (MSA compliant)
• Maximum transmission distance: up to 10,000 m on single-mode fiber
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Transmission rate class: up to 1.25 Gbit/s (1000BASE-LX class)
• Optical medium: single-mode fiber
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AFCT-5715PZ-BC-BO by inserting it into a compatible SFP slot on the network device until it latches. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the transceiver’s transmit and receive ports, observing correct polarity. Ensure the host device is configured to recognize and enable SFP optics and that link speed/duplex settings are appropriate for 1 Gbit/s operation. If the host supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable monitoring through the device management interface to read real-time optical parameters where supported by the hardware.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode LC patch cords and maintain proper fiber polarity and cleanliness for optimal range and signal quality. Verify that the host hardware supports 1000BASE-LX class SFP modules and any required diagnostic features before deployment. Store and handle the module in a dry, static-free environment and avoid excessive mechanical stress on the fibre connections.
