SFP transceiver module BlueOptics AFBR-5715ALZ-BC-BO 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics AFBR-5715ALZ-BC-BO SFP transceiver module is designed for fibre optic network connections with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. This compact SFP-form-factor module in silver colour weighs approximately 20 g and is suitable for insertion in compatible SFP ports to provide reliable optical link interfaces. The device meets CE, FCC and RoHS standards and is specified with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, reflecting its intended use in continuous networking environments.

Advantages

The module’s SFP form factor enables hot-pluggable installation in network switches, routers and media converters that accept SFP transceivers. With a rated throughput of up to 1250 Mbit/s it supports common legacy and industrial serial optical links. The compact silver housing and low weight make it easy to handle and install, while compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS standards ensures regulatory compatibility and reduced environmental risk. The high MTBF rating indicates long-term operational stability under normal conditions.

Suitable for

• Replacing or upgrading SFP ports on switches and routers
• Establishing short- to medium-range fibre optic links in LANs
• Use in media converters and optical network equipment supporting SFP
• Industrial and enterprise networking where 1250 Mbit/s optical links are required

How to use

Before installation, ensure the host device supports SFP modules and that the module’s optical parameters match the intended fibre type and link budget. Power down or follow the host’s hot-swap procedure if supported. Align and insert the SFP transceiver into the SFP socket until it latches, then connect the appropriate optical fibre cable using the correct connector type for the module. After installation, verify link status and configure the host network interface as required. For removal, follow the host device’s recommended procedure to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Store and operate the module within the environmental ranges specified by the host device and avoid exposing the optical interface to contaminants. Use dust caps when the transceiver is not connected and handle the unit by its housing to prevent damage to the optical port. Verify compatibility with the network equipment firmware and perform link testing after installation to confirm expected performance.
