SFP transceiver module BlueOptics F5-UPG-SFP-R 1250 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics F5-UPG-SFP-R is an SFP transceiver module for fiber optic connections that supports up to 1250 Mbit/s data transfer at an operating wavelength of 850 nm. Designed for integration with compatible SFP ports, this compact module provides a standardized interface for short-range multimode fiber links in network switches, routers and media converters.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP form factor with support for a 1250 Mbit/s line rate and an 850 nm optical wavelength, enabling reliable short-range optical links. Its standardized interface simplifies replacement and upgrades in existing SFP-capable equipment and helps maintain consistent physical layer performance. The design focuses on plug-and-play compatibility and predictable signal characteristics for multimode fiber deployments.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode fiber connections in enterprise and data center networks
• Upgrades or replacements of existing SFP transceivers in switches and routers
• Interconnects between network devices using SFP interfaces
• Media converters and optical link testing equipment

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 1250 Mbit/s
• Optical wavelength: 850 nm
• Application: short-range multimode fiber links
• Form factor: hot-pluggable SFP module

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP port on a switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered off or following the manufacturer's hot-swap guidelines. Connect the appropriate multimode fiber patch cable to the module's optical interface, ensuring proper end-face cleanliness and connector type. Power on the host equipment if it was turned off and verify link status through the device's management interface or LED indicators. Monitor link integrity and data throughput to confirm correct operation.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use multimode fiber and connectors that match the 850 nm wavelength and maintain clean connector end-faces. Follow equipment manufacturer guidance on supported SFP modules to ensure compatibility. Avoid exposing the transceiver to electrostatic discharge and handle the optical ports carefully; store unused modules with protective caps when not in use.
