SFP transceiver module BlueOptics FG-TRAN-SFP28-SR-BO Fiber optic SFP28 LC Aluminium 20g

The BlueOptics FG-TRAN-SFP28-SR-BO is an SFP28 fiber optic transceiver module designed for 25G short-range multimode links. It features an LC duplex interface, an aluminum housing and a lightweight build of approximately 20 g, providing a compact, standards-compliant option for high-speed network connections. The module supports optical transmission over multimode fiber and follows MSA form-factor conventions for broad hardware compatibility.

Advantages

The module offers compatibility with SFP28 ports and delivers 25G-class short-range optical performance while maintaining a small SFP28 form factor. Its aluminum casing provides physical robustness and thermal dissipation in a compact, lightweight package. The BlueOptics unit is manufactured to MSA guidelines to ensure interoperability with hardware that accepts SFP28/SFP28-SR transceivers and is suitable for installations where a reliable, low-profile optical uplink is required.

Suitable for

• 25G short-reach multimode fiber links (data center uplinks and switch-to-switch connections)
• High-density switch and router ports with LC duplex connectors
• Environments requiring compact, low-weight transceivers for modular line cards and server mezzanine slots

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP28 (LC duplex)
• Typical use: 25G short-range multimode fibre transmission
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material / colour: Aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg
• Form factor: SFP28 (MSA compliant)

How to use

Insert the transceiver into a compatible SFP28 port until it locks into place, then connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports. Ensure the host device supports SFP28 modules and the relevant 25G short-range optics. After physical installation, verify link status through the host system's management interface and monitor optical parameters if the platform supports digital diagnostics.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber patch cords and LC duplex connections rated for short-range 25G transmission; follow the host vendor’s guidelines for supported third-party transceivers and enable digital diagnostic monitoring if available to monitor supply voltage, transmit/receive power and temperature for proactive maintenance.
