SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 740-028631-BO 155 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 740-028631-BO SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber optic interface designed for network devices requiring an SFP slot. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s, this silver-coloured module provides a standardized small form-factor pluggable solution for connecting fiber links in telecom and data communication environments. The product is intended for installation into compatible switches, routers or media converters that accept SFP transceivers and offers a high mean time between failures (MTBF) to support reliable operation.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver delivers a stable 155 Mbit/s connection in a compact SFP form factor, allowing hot-swappable installation and straightforward integration into existing network hardware. The silver housing provides physical durability while keeping the module lightweight. With an MTBF of approximately 1,000,000 hours, the module is engineered for extended service life and reduced maintenance intervention in continuous operation scenarios.

Suitable for

• Connecting fiber optic links between switches and routers in metropolitan and campus networks
• Upgrading or replacing SFP ports in telecom equipment and media converters
• Low- to moderate-speed optical links in legacy or industrial communication systems

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 155 Mbit/s
• Product colour: Silver
• Form factor: Compact plug-in transceiver for SFP slots
• Reliability: Mean time between failures ~1,000,000 hours

How to use

Ensure the host device supports SFP transceivers and the required optical specifications before installation. With the device powered down or following vendor guidance for hot-swap, insert the transceiver into an available SFP port until it seats securely. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable to the transceiver’s port, observing correct connector type and polarity. Configure the network device as needed to enable the interface and verify link status and data transmission at the expected 155 Mbit/s rate.

Recommendations

Use matching fiber type and connectors to the rest of the link and verify compatibility with the hosting equipment. Keep the transceiver’s optical interfaces protected from dust when not connected and follow ESD precautions during handling. For uninterrupted operation, schedule periodic link checks and replace the module if persistent errors or instability are detected.
