SFP transceiver module BlueOptics BO05C856S5D 1250 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics BO05C856S5D 1250 Mbit/s SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber optic interface designed for small form-factor network equipment. It provides a maximum data transfer rate of 1250 Mbit/s and uses a 3.3 V supply, offering a reliable physical layer connection for fiber links. The module meets industry certifications including RoHS, CE, FCC and ISO9001 and is listed as compatible with Sonicwall 01-SSC-9789, making it suitable for use in a variety of managed switches, routers and firewall appliances.

Advantages

The module's SFP form factor and metallic casing enable easy hot-pluggable installation in compatible slots while maintaining mechanical durability and compactness. With a stated mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours and compliance with common regulatory standards, the transceiver provides predictable performance and interoperability in established network environments. Low weight and standardized interface simplify inventory management and replacement.

Suitable for

• Upgrading or replacing SFP fiber ports on switches and routers
• Establishing short to medium distance fiber links where 1250 Mbit/s is sufficient
• Use in compatible Sonicwall devices and other appliances supporting SFP modules
• Lab testing and spare-part stocking for network maintenance

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on your network device while the host is powered off or following the vendor's hot-plug procedure if supported. Ensure the fiber connector type and cable are matched to the transceiver optics and that both ends of the link are configured for the same data rate and duplex settings. Verify link establishment through the host device's status indicators or management interface and monitor link stability after installation.

Recommendations

Handle the transceiver by its housing and avoid touching optical interfaces. Store unused modules in protective caps or packaging to prevent contamination. Confirm compatibility with the target device's supported SFP modules and firmware. For reliable operation, use clean fiber connectors and follow vendor guidelines for hot-plugging, grounding, and electrostatic discharge precautions.
