SFP transceiver module BlueOptics AC-SFP-100LX-BO 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics AC-SFP-100LX-BO 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm is a small-form pluggable (SFP) transceiver module intended for fiber-optic Fast Ethernet links. It transmits at a wavelength of 1310 nm, supports up to 155 Mbit/s data rate and reaches distances up to 20,000 meters over single-mode fiber. The module is compact and lightweight (approx. 20 g) with a silver housing, designed to be hot-pluggable into compatible SFP slots of switches, media converters and routers to enable or extend fiber connections.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver offers stable optical performance for point-to-point fiber links and industrial or carrier-class applications where a 1310 nm wavelength and long reach are required. With a high mean time between failures (MTBF) figure, the module provides reliable uptime while its compact SFP form factor preserves chassis space and simplifies deployment. The LC connector and Fast Ethernet interface ensure compatibility with common optical patchcords and network equipment that support Fast Ethernet SFP modules.

Suitable for

• Extending Fast Ethernet networks over single-mode fiber up to 20 km
• Interconnecting switches, routers or media converters in telecom and enterprise links
• Replacing or upgrading existing 1310 nm SFP modules in compatible devices
• Use in rack-mounted or compact network devices with SFP ports

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics AC-SFP-100LX-BO into a compatible SFP slot on your switch, router or media converter while power is applied or removed as supported by the host device. Secure the LC patchcord to the module's LC connector and verify link status via the host device LEDs or management interface. Ensure the remote link partner uses a compatible 1310 nm single-mode SFP transceiver and that fiber type, connectors and patchcords match to achieve the specified reach and data rate.

Recommendations

Install and remove the transceiver using ESD-safe procedures and avoid bending or stressing fiber patchcords. For maximum link reliability, use single-mode fiber and LC connectors rated for long-reach applications; check device compatibility lists for supported SFP modules and firmware requirements before deployment.
