SFP transceiver module BlueOptics 942-194-002-BO 1310 nm LC 2000 m

The BlueOptics 942-194-002-BO SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber-optic interface designed for 100BASE-FX Ethernet and similar optical data applications. Operating at a wavelength of 1310 nm with an LC duplex connector, it supports multi-mode fiber links up to 2000 m and fits standard SFP slots in switches, routers, storage systems and other network devices. The module weighs approximately 20 g and conforms to MSA SFP form-factor specifications to ensure broad compatibility with equipment that supports the equivalent Hirschmann 942-194-002 100BASE-FX transceiver.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver provides stable optical communication over multi-mode fiber with simultaneous transmit and receive channels via an LC duplex interface. It is manufactured to MSA standards and tested for compatibility with major hardware platforms. The module supports digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host device provides that function, enabling real-time readout of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, received power and temperature. Its lightweight and standardized SFP form factor simplify installation and replacement in existing network inventories.

Suitable for

• 100BASE-FX Ethernet links over multimode fiber up to 2 km
• Interconnection of switches and routers in campus and industrial networks
• Optical uplinks for storage systems and network appliances
• Replacement or upgrade of Hirschmann 942-194-002 compatible SFP ports

Key specifications

• Optical wavelength: 1310 nm
• Form factor: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Connector: LC duplex
• Supported distance: up to 2000 m over multimode fiber
• Supported protocols: 100BASE-FX (suitable for Ethernet, FCoE and SDH/SONET up to device limits)
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg
• Product color: grey

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on the host device until it latches securely. Connect LC duplex fiber patch cords to the module, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Configure the host interface according to device documentation for 100BASE-FX operation and enable DDM/DOM in the management interface if diagnostics are required. Observe ESD precautions during handling and avoid bending the fiber patch cords beyond the recommended radius to preserve signal integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use quality multimode fiber and LC duplex patch cords, verify link polarity and test the optical budget across the intended distance. Ensure the host hardware supports the DDM/DOM feature to access diagnostic telemetry and confirm firmware or software compatibility when deploying as a direct replacement for Hirschmann 942-194-002 compatible modules.
