SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 551075-BO 155 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 551075-BO 155 Mbit/s Fiber optic SFP transceiver module is a compact optical interface designed for insertion into SFP ports on network equipment. It provides a fiber optic uplink with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s and is supplied in a silver-coloured SFP housing. The module is intended for point-to-point fiber links and telecom or industrial networking applications where a small-form pluggable transceiver is required. The manufacturer specifies a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, indicating long-term reliability under standard operating conditions.

Advantages

The SFP form factor enables hot-pluggable installation and compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers and media converters that accept small form-factor pluggables. With a rated maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s, this transceiver is suitable for legacy SDH/SONET and low-speed fiber applications. Its compact silver housing and low weight make it easy to handle and install in dense equipment racks. The high MTBF value reflects an emphasis on stable operation and reduced maintenance frequency.

Suitable for

• Short- and medium-distance fiber optic links requiring up to 155 Mbit/s
• SDH/SONET and legacy telecommunication equipment
• Network switches, routers and media converters with SFP ports
• Industrial and enterprise networking where compact, hot-pluggable modules are needed

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 155 Mbit/s
• Product colour: Silver
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Mean time between failures (MTBF): 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP modules and is powered down or supports hot-plugging according to the device manual. Align the transceiver with the SFP slot and insert it gently until it clicks into place. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable to the transceiver's fiber interface, observing correct connector type and polarity. Configure link settings on the host device as required for 155 Mbit/s operation and verify link status indicators to confirm successful connection.

Recommendations

Handle the optical ports with care to avoid contamination and always use protective caps when the transceiver is not connected. Use compatible fiber cables and check connector types before installation. Follow the equipment manufacturer's guidelines for hot-plugging and electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions to maintain reliability.
