SFP transceiver module BlueOptics S26361-F3986-L2-BO Fiber optic 550m

The BlueOptics S26361-F3986-L2-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 1000Base-SX multi-mode fiber links. Constructed in an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 grams, this compact SFP supports optical transmission up to 550 metres using an LC duplex connector and operates with 850 nm transmitter and receiver wavelengths. The module follows MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) form-factor standards and is suitable for use in network equipment that accepts standard SFP 1000Base-SX transceivers.

Advantages

This SFP module offers a compact aluminium design for reliable physical protection and low weight, combined with support for 1.25 Gbit/s Ethernet and other compatible high-speed protocols over multi-mode fiber to distances up to 550 m. It is manufactured to MSA guidelines for interoperability with standard SFP ports and includes digital diagnostics monitoring support when used in systems that expose DDM/DOM data, enabling remote monitoring of key optical parameters.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP module into an empty SFP port on a compatible switch, router or storage device while the host port is powered down or following the equipment vendor's hot-plug guidance. Connect an LC duplex multi-mode fiber patch cable between this transceiver and the remote transceiver, ensuring correct transmit/receive alignment. Verify link status and, if available, read digital diagnostic information from the host device to confirm optical power and temperature parameters. Follow your network equipment vendor's instructions to enable or configure the port for 1000Base-SX operation.

Recommendations

Use high-quality OM3/OM4 multi-mode patch cords and maintain clean LC connectors to achieve the specified 550 m range and reliable performance. Ensure host hardware firmware supports third-party SFPs and DDM/DOM if monitoring is required. When replacing modules, power-cycle or reset the port only according to the host vendor's guidance to avoid configuration issues.
