SFP transceiver module BlueOptics H-FX-SFP-BO 155 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics H-FX-SFP-BO 155 Mbit/s is a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber optic transceiver module designed for 100BASE-FX class links with a maximum data rate of 155 Mbit/s. The module uses an LC duplex connector and operates with optical transmit and receive wavelengths around 1310 nm suitable for multimode fiber links up to approximately 2 km. It is supplied in a silver housing, weighs about 20 g, and meets CE, FCC and RoHS compliance requirements. The transceiver is compatible with MSA SFP form-factor standards and supports common Ethernet and optical transport applications where a compact, hot-pluggable fiber interface is required.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP interface for easy installation into compatible switches, routers and other networking equipment, enabling reliable optical data transmission without susceptibility to electromagnetic interference. Its compact, hot-swappable design simplifies upgrades and replacements. Compliance with CE, FCC and RoHS ensures regulatory conformity, while the lightweight metal housing contributes to mechanical durability and straightforward handling during deployment.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics H-FX-SFP-BO into any compatible SFP slot while the host device is powered on or off, observing proper ESD handling. Connect an LC duplex fiber patch cord to the module, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Configure the network device for the required port speed and protocol if necessary; most modern switches will auto-negotiate or recognise the SFP. Verify link status and diagnostics via the host device management interface. If the host supports Digital Diagnostics (DDM/DOM) and the module exposes these signals, use the management interface to monitor real-time parameters such as optical power and temperature.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use high-quality LC duplex multimode patch cords and maintain clean fiber connectors. Confirm that the target hardware officially supports third-party SFP modules or provides compatibility settings if required. When using DDM/DOM features, ensure the host system firmware supports reading diagnostic data. Observe manufacturer guidelines for handling to avoid contamination or damage to the optical interface.
