SFP transceiver BlueOptics 551082-BO Fiber optic 1000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 551082-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet links. Housed in an aluminium body and weighing approximately 20 g, this module provides a compact, MSA-compliant form factor for use in compatible network equipment. It supports standard SFP interface connections and is intended for reliable data transmission in switches, routers and other network devices that accept SFP transceivers.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers a stable 1000 Mbit/s data rate in a compact SFP package with aluminium casing that helps with heat dissipation and mechanical protection. It follows industry MSA form-factor conventions to ensure broad interoperability with equipment that supports SFP modules. The lightweight design simplifies handling and installation in dense network environments.

Suitable for

• Upgrading or expanding Gigabit Ethernet ports in switches and routers
• Replacement of compatible SFP transceivers in network infrastructure
• Short-distance fiber or copper SFP links within data centers and server rooms
• Use in network devices that require MSA-compliant SFP modules

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP module
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Housing material: aluminium body
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg
• Form factor: hot-pluggable SFP

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 551082-BO into an empty SFP port on a compatible switch, router or other network device while the port is powered down or following the device manufacturer’s hot-plugging guidelines. Connect the appropriate fiber or copper cabling to the transceiver and configure the device network settings (speed/duplex, auto-negotiation) as required. Verify link status and traffic using the host device management interface and perform tests to confirm stable throughput at 1000 Mbit/s.

Recommendations

Use MSA-compliant equipment and cabling that match the transceiver type and the distance requirements of your network. Ensure firmware or driver compatibility on the host device and test modules in a controlled environment before large-scale deployment. Store unused modules in anti-static packaging and avoid exposure to excessive dust or moisture.
