SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-25G-SR-C-BO Fiber optic SFP28 100m

The BlueOptics SFP-25G-SR-C-BO is a fiber optic SFP28 transceiver module that supports 25GBASE-SR multimode optical links up to 100 meters. Housed in an aluminium enclosure and weighing approximately 20 grams, the module provides a compact, industry-standard SFP28 interface with LC duplex connector for simultaneous transmit and receive over separate fibers. It operates with 850 nm VCSEL optics and is designed to meet MSA mechanical and electrical specifications for use in compatible network equipment.

Advantages

The module offers 25 Gbit/s throughput over multimode fiber with a compact SFP28 form factor, aluminium housing for thermal stability and lightweight construction that simplifies handling and installation. It implements the standard LC duplex interface and supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) where supported by host hardware, enabling real-time monitoring of parameters such as temperature, supply voltage, transmit bias and optical power. Compliance with MSA guidelines ensures broad interoperability with network switches, routers and storage platforms that accept SFP28 transceivers.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP28 transceiver into a compatible SFP28 slot on a switch, router or storage device while the host is powered according to the manufacturer’s installation guidelines. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the TX and RX ports, observing correct polarity. Configure the host interface for 25G operation if required by the platform and verify link status in the device management interface. If DDM/DOM is supported by the host, monitor diagnostic parameters to confirm proper operating conditions.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber (OM3/OM4) and high-quality LC duplex patch cords for optimal reach and performance. Ensure firmware or software on the host device supports third-party SFP28 modules and enable DDM/DOM if remote diagnostics are needed. Keep transceiver dust caps in place when not connected and handle the module by the housing to avoid contaminating optical interfaces.
