SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-25G-SL-BO Fiber optic SFP28

The BlueOptics SFP-25G-SL-BO Fiber optic SFP28 is a 25GBASE-SR compatible SFP28 transceiver module designed for short-reach high-speed data transmission over multimode fiber. The module uses an LC duplex connector, is housed in an aluminium casing and weighs approximately 20 g. It supports 25 Gigabit Ethernet link speeds over distances up to 100 meters on suitable multimode fiber and is intended for use in network devices that accept SFP28 form-factor modules.

Advantages

This SFP28 transceiver follows MSA-compatible form-factor and LC connector standards to enable straightforward interoperability with compliant hardware. The aluminium enclosure provides mechanical stability and thermal conduction for reliable operation, while the compact SFP28 form factor enables high port density in switches and other network equipment. The module is engineered for optical short-range links, providing low-latency 25G connectivity for data center and enterprise network segments.

How to use

Install the SFP28 module into a compatible SFP28 slot on a switch, router or server according to the host device manufacturer’s insertion and removal procedure. Use an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cord terminated to appropriate multimode connectors and ensure correct polarity when connecting to a remote transceiver or patch panel. Verify that the host device supports 25G operation and, if required, enable or allow any vendor-specific settings that permit third-party transceivers. After insertion, confirm link status and speed via the host device management interface.

Recommendations

To achieve optimal performance, use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber for maximum reach at 25G, keep fiber connectors clean, and verify that the host platform supports third-party SFP28 modules and Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) if monitoring is required.
