SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-2230-BO Fiber optic 155 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP-2230-BO is a single‑mode fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for data transmission at up to 155 Mbit/s. Housed in an aluminium enclosure and weighing approximately 20 g, the module uses an LC duplex connector and supports optical links to a maximum distance of 40,000 m. The module complies with MSA SFP form-factor conventions and is suitable for insertion in SFP ports of switches, routers and other network devices that accept standard 100BASE‑LH/155 Mbit/s SFP optics.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver combines a compact aluminium body with low weight for easy handling and installation. It supports long‑distance single‑mode transmission up to 40 km via LC duplex connector and operates at a stable 155 Mbit/s data rate. The module follows industry MSA guidelines for SFP modules, which simplifies compatibility with a wide range of network hardware. Its optical design (separate transmitter and receiver at 1310 nm) enables simultaneous send and receive paths over single‑mode fiber.

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics SFP‑2230‑BO into an available SFP port on compatible network equipment until it clicks into place. Connect an LC duplex single‑mode patch cable between transceivers on each end of the optical link, observing correct TX/RX orientation. Ensure the host device supports 100BASE‑LH / 155 Mbit/s optics and that any required software or firmware accepts third‑party SFP modules. Monitor the link status on the host device and verify signal integrity with built‑in diagnostics if supported.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use single‑mode LC duplex fiber patch cords and verify that the transceiver wavelength (1310 nm) and link budget meet your distance and loss requirements. If the host supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM), enable it to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and temperature. Allow for proper ventilation around the SFP port and avoid mechanical stress on fiber connectors to maintain long‑term reliability.
