SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 551118-BO 155 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 551118-BO 155 Mbit/s Fiber optic SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber interface designed for network devices that accept SFP form-factor modules. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s and provides a fiber connection option in a small, hot-pluggable package. The module is manufactured to meet CE, FCC and RoHS standards and has a stated mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, offering a specification-oriented solution for multimedia, telecom and industrial networking applications where a low-rate fiber link is required.

Advantages

The SFP form factor ensures broad compatibility with switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP ports, while the small size minimises rack space usage. The module's maximum data rate of 155 Mbit/s suits legacy and specialized synchronous transport networks. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards provides assurance of regulatory conformity and environmental compliance. A lightweight, silver-coloured metal housing contributes to durability and effective mechanical protection of the optical interface.

Suitable for

• Low-rate fiber connections in access or aggregation networks
• Legacy SDH/PDH or other 155 Mbit/s synchronous circuits
• Media converters and network devices with SFP slots
• Industrial and building automation links requiring fiber isolation

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on the network device while the device is powered according to the equipment manufacturer's hot-plug instructions. Ensure the optical fibre connector type used matches the transceiver's optical interface (check device documentation for connector compatibility). Route and secure the fibre cable to avoid sharp bends or tension. After physical installation, verify link status via the host device's management interface and configure any required port settings such as speed, duplex or protocol parameters consistent with a 155 Mbit/s link.

Recommendations

Use quality single-mode or multimode fiber and appropriate connectors matched to the transceiver and host equipment. Avoid excessive bending, tensile strain and contamination of optical endfaces; clean connectors before mating. Follow the host device vendor guidance for SFP compatibility and firmware updates to ensure proper recognition and stable operation.
