SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 500SUM40 R0001-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 500SUM40 R0001-BO SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber optic interface designed for use in network equipment that accepts SFP form-factor modules. Supporting up to 1250 Mbit/s data rate, this silver-coloured transceiver provides a standard single-port fiber connection in a small, hot-pluggable package. It meets CE, FCC and RoHS compliance and is specified with a mean time between failures of 1,000,000 hours, making it suitable for installations where space efficiency and predictable uptime are important.

Advantages

The SFP form factor delivers compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP modules. With a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s it supports common fiber link speeds for small and medium network segments. The module's lightweight design (approximately 20 g) and silver finish facilitate easy handling and unobtrusive installation in rack-mounted or compact network devices. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards ensures conformity with regulatory and environmental requirements.

Suitable for

• Small to medium enterprise fiber uplinks and connections
• Network switches or routers with SFP ports
• Media converters and patch panels requiring standard SFP transceivers
• Replaceable or spare transceivers for maintenance and upgrades

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP transceiver by inserting it into an empty SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable to the transceiver's fiber interface, ensuring correct connector type and polarity. The module is hot-pluggable, so it can be inserted or removed while the host device is powered, following the host manufacturer's guidance. After installation, verify link and data transmission status via the host device management interface or status LEDs.

Recommendations

Handle the transceiver by its housing to avoid contact with optical interfaces. Use clean, undamaged fiber connectors and dust caps when the port is unused. Confirm compatibility with the host device's supported SFP types and optical specifications before deployment, and follow ESD protection procedures during installation and removal.
