SFP Transceiver BlueOptics BO05C856S5D F-MM850-550M-1.25G 1000BASE-SX 850nm

BlueOptics BO05C856S5D is a compact SFP transceiver module designed for Gigabit Ethernet links over multimode fiber. The module operates at an 850 nm wavelength and supports a data rate of 1.25 Gbit/s, providing an effective optical reach of approximately 550 meters on suitable multimode fiber. The SFP form factor fits standard SFP cages and supports hot-pluggable installation, enabling straightforward integration into switches, routers and optical equipment used in data centers, enterprise networks and campus backbones.

Advantages

The transceiver offers industry-standard SFP compatibility and hot-pluggable operation for flexible deployment and minimal downtime during upgrades. Its multimode 850 nm optics deliver short- to medium-distance connectivity with predictable performance, while the small form factor reduces space requirements in densely populated networking racks. The module is suited to common network topologies and supports interoperable operation with equipment that accepts standard 1000BASE-SX SFP modules.

How to use

Install the SFP transceiver into an available SFP port on a compatible switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered according to the vendor’s hot-plug guidance. Connect the multimode fiber patch cable with appropriate LC connectors to the transceiver. Verify link status and speed in the host device management interface and ensure the remote end uses a compatible 1000BASE-SX module and multimode fiber with sufficient modal bandwidth for the specified reach.

Recommendations

Use OM2/OM3/OM4 multimode fiber types as appropriate for the desired reach and margin; verify length and connector cleanliness to maintain optical performance. Confirm compatibility with the host device vendor’s supported transceiver list if required by network policies.
