SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 740-028307-BO 155 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics 740-028307-BO 155 Mbit/s Fiber optic SFP transceiver module is a compact, hot-pluggable networking component designed for fiber optic data links. With an SFP form factor and a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s, this silver-coloured module supports point-to-point optical connections in networking equipment that accepts SFP modules. The device is intended for use in systems where a reliable optical interface is needed and is specified with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours for long-term operation.

Advantages

The SFP form factor provides a small footprint and compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP modules. Supporting up to 155 Mbit/s, the transceiver is suitable for legacy and specialized low-rate fiber links. The silver housing offers a standardized mechanical and thermal profile for stable installation, and the listed MTBF indicates a design focused on sustained operation and predictable lifetime.

Suitable for

• Point-to-point fiber optic links between networking devices
• Legacy networks and equipment requiring 155 Mbit/s optical interfaces
• Network maintenance, replacement or expansion where SFP compatibility is required
• Use with switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP transceivers

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 155 Mbit/s
• Physical colour: Silver
• Optical medium: Fiber optic link (single-mode or multimode determined by system and patching)
• MTBF: 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into an SFP slot on compatible networking equipment while the device is powered down or following the vendor's hot-swap guidelines. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable to the transceiver's optical port, ensuring correct connector type and polarity per the system requirements. Configure the link speed and interface settings on the host device if necessary to match the 155 Mbit/s data rate. Monitor link status indicators on the host equipment to verify proper operation after installation.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with the host device manufacturer and use fiber optic cables and connectors appropriate for the intended distance and network architecture. Handle the transceiver with electrostatic discharge precautions, keep dust caps on the optical port when not in use, and follow standard maintenance procedures to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
