Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics BO27O856S1D-BO SFP28 100m

The BlueOptics BO27O856S1D-BO SFP28 100m is a fiber optic transceiver module engineered for high-speed multimode fiber links. It supports short-range 10G/25G transmission over distances up to 100 metres and uses an LC duplex connector in SFP28 form factor. The module housing is aluminium and the lightweight design (approx. 40 g) simplifies installation in compatible network equipment. The transceiver implements standardized optical interfaces for reliable integration with switches, routers, storage systems and other network devices that accept SFP28 modules.

Advantages

This transceiver provides support for 10G and 25G Ethernet applications on multimode fibre with separate transmitter and receiver at 850 nm wavelength, enabling simultaneous send and receive operation. Manufactured to MSA-aligned physical standards, the module offers plug-and-play compatibility with platforms that officially support SFP28 SR optics. The aluminium housing delivers mechanical robustness and heat dissipation, while the compact SFP28 form factor saves rack port space. Digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) support allows real-time monitoring of parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output and receive power, and temperature when used in hardware that exposes these functions.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10G/25G Ethernet links over multimode fiber (up to 100 m)
• High-speed connections between switches, routers and storage systems
• Data center top-of-rack and aggregation uplinks supporting SFP28
• Environments requiring low-latency, EMI-immune optical links

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP28 (LC duplex)
• Maximum transmission distance: up to 100 metres on multimode fiber
• Wavelength: 850 nm (transmitter and receiver)
• Supported data rates: 10G and 25G multimode Ethernet
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approximately 0.04 kg
• DDM/DOM: supported when host hardware exposes diagnostics

How to use

Insert the SFP28 transceiver into a compatible SFP28 port on your switch, router or storage device until it clicks into place, then secure the module according to the host device instructions. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports, observing correct polarity. Ensure the fiber type (multimode) and cable distance do not exceed the 100 m maximum. If your hardware supports DDM/DOM, enable or query diagnostics through the device management interface to monitor operational parameters. Follow host vendor guidelines for hot-plugging and firmware compatibility to maintain stable operation.

Recommendations

Use high-quality OM3/OM4 multimode patch cords and maintain correct polarity for the LC duplex connections to achieve optimal performance. Verify that the host device explicitly supports SR SFP28 optics and DDM if diagnostic monitoring is required. Avoid excessive bending of optical cables and ensure the transceiver is handled in electrostatic-safe conditions during installation and removal.
