SFP transceiver BlueOptics MLC2-DDM 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics MLC2-DDM 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm is a compact SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for point-to-point and short-range network links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s and operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm, providing reliable single-fiber or duplex connections depending on the link configuration. The module is lightweight (approximately 20 g) and finished in a silver housing, supplied as an individually packaged unit for convenient storage, handling and installation.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP transceiver offers standardized SFP interface compatibility for straightforward hot-pluggable installation in compatible switches, routers and optical network equipment. The 1310 nm wavelength supports longer multimode or single-mode fiber spans compared with shorter wavelengths, while the 155 Mbit/s rate fits legacy and industrial network applications. The compact metal housing and low weight reduce mechanical strain on equipment bays and simplify mounting, and the individual packaging helps protect the module during transport and storage.

Suitable for

• Short- to medium-range fiber optic connections using 1310 nm wavelength
• Legacy or low-speed network segments requiring up to 155 Mbit/s
• Hot-pluggable SFP ports in switches, routers and media converters
• Environments where compact, lightweight transceivers are preferred

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 155 Mbit/s
• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm
• Housing colour: Silver
• Weight: 0.02 kg (approx.)

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP transceivers and is powered down or that you follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Remove protective caps from the optical ports before insertion. Insert the BlueOptics MLC2-DDM module into an SFP slot until it clicks into place. Connect appropriate fiber patch cords that match the transceiver’s wavelength and connector type. Verify link status on the host device and monitor for proper signal levels; if the module supports DDM (Digital Diagnostics Monitoring), use compatible management tools to read real-time operating parameters.

Recommendations

Store and handle the transceiver in a clean, dry environment and keep dust caps in place when the module is not connected. Match fiber type and connector standards to the transceiver’s 1310 nm operation to maintain signal integrity. Follow the host equipment’s SFP installation and ESD precautions to prevent physical or electrostatic damage.
