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

The BlueOptics AFBR-5715APZ-BC-BO is an SFP transceiver module for multimode fiber links with a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s. Housed in a compact SFP form factor and finished in silver, this module is designed for insertion into SFP ports on switches, routers and storage systems that support 1000Base-SX style optics. It includes optical transmit and receive functions at 850 nm and is built to industry interoperability standards, offering a high MTBF for long-term operation and compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS regulations.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP interface for flexible deployment in varied networking hardware and supports full-duplex optical transmission via an LC duplex connection. High component quality and adherence to MSA mechanical and electrical definitions enable reliable interoperability with common vendor platforms. With a rated MTBF of 1,000,000 hours and a light-weight silver metal housing, the transceiver offers sustained availability and simple handling during installation or replacement.

Suitable for

• 1000Base-SX fiber uplinks between switches and routers
• Server and storage connectivity in data centers
• Short-range multimode fiber connections in campus or enterprise networks
• Hardware platforms that accept SFP optical modules with LC duplex connectors

How to use

Power down or follow hot‑plug procedures recommended by your hardware vendor before inserting the SFP transceiver into an available SFP port. Ensure the module is fully seated and lock the connector if applicable. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module’s LC duplex port, observing transmit/receive orientation. After physical installation, verify link status and speed via the host device management interface and confirm that any required diagnostics or DDM features are enabled on the host if monitoring is needed.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber patch cords and infrastructure rated for 850 nm and the intended link distance; verify compatibility with the host hardware and enable DDM/DOM support on network devices to access real‑time diagnostics. Avoid excessive bending of fiber cables and protect transceiver ports from dust when not in use by using dust caps.
