SFP transceiver BlueOptics AOM-SFP28-25GBE-SR-1-MLN 25000 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics AOM-SFP28-25GBE-SR-1-MLN is an SFP28 fiber optic transceiver module engineered for short-reach 25 Gbps network links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 25,000 Mbit/s and transmits at a wavelength of 850 nm. The module is compact and lightweight (approximately 20 g) with a silver housing, making it suitable for dense rack environments and hot-pluggable network ports.

Advantages

The transceiver provides high-throughput connectivity for 25 Gbps Ethernet applications while maintaining low power consumption and a compact SFP28 form factor. Its 850 nm multimode operation offers compatibility with standard short-range multimode fiber systems. The lightweight metal housing improves heat dissipation and mechanical durability, and the hot-pluggable design simplifies installation and replacement without powering down network equipment.

Suitable for

• Data center intra-rack and inter-rack connections over multimode fiber
• High-performance computing clusters requiring 25 Gbps links
• Switch-to-switch or server-to-switch short-reach connections
• Upgrading existing multimode fiber networks to 25 G Ethernet

Key specifications

• Maximum data transfer rate: 25000 Mbit/s (25 Gbps)
• Operating wavelength: 850 nm (multimode)
• Typical application range: short-reach multimode fiber links
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Product colour: Silver

How to use

Ensure the network equipment supports SFP28 modules and 25 Gbps operation before installation. Handle the transceiver by its housing and avoid touching the optical connector to prevent contamination. Insert the module into an empty SFP28 port until it clicks into place, then connect the appropriate multimode fiber patch cable with matching LC connectors. Verify link status on the host device and confirm negotiated speed and signal quality via the equipment management interface.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber of the appropriate grade (OM3/OM4 recommended for 25 G over short reach) and keep fiber endfaces clean. Observe ambient temperature and power specifications of the host device, and use dust caps when the transceiver is not connected. For compatibility, consult switch or server vendor documentation regarding supported SFP28 modules.
