SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 53154-B21-BO Copper 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 53154-B21-BO Copper SFP transceiver module is a compact network interface designed for short-range copper connections in switches, routers and media converters. With an SFP form factor and a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s, this silver-coloured module provides a standard physical interface for 1.25 Gbps-compatible ports while keeping a small footprint and low weight (20 g). It complies with CE, FCC and RoHS directives and carries a manufacturer-stated MTBF of 1,000,000 hours for predictable operational lifetime.

Advantages

The module offers a standardized SFP form factor for easy hot-pluggable installation and compatibility with a wide range of network equipment that accepts SFP copper transceivers. Its copper interface supports typical 1.25 Gbit/s serial links without the need for optic conversion, and the low weight and compact size simplify handling and deployment in dense rack environments. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS ensures regulatory conformity for safety, electromagnetic compatibility and environmental restrictions.

Suitable for

• Upgrading SFP ports on switches and routers to support copper-based 1.25 Gbit/s links
• Short-reach connections between network devices within server rooms or wiring closets
• Replacement of failed SFP copper transceivers in enterprise and SMB equipment
• Use in media converters or SFP-capable network appliances requiring 1250 Mbit/s copper interfaces

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 53154-B21-BO by inserting the SFP module into an empty SFP port on your switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place; no additional tools are required. Connect a compatible copper cable to the module’s RJ-style interface or the corresponding copper connector on the device. After insertion, confirm link status and negotiated speed via the host device interface. For removal, power down the port if recommended by the equipment vendor, then press the release latch and pull the module straight out.

Recommendations

Use this copper SFP module within the supported ambient temperature and humidity ranges of your host equipment, and avoid excessive mechanical force during insertion and removal. Verify compatibility with the target device’s SFP vendor support list if the host enforces vendor locking. Store unused modules in anti-static packaging to prevent electrostatic damage.
