SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-FC-M-A-BO 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP-FC-M-A-BO is a single‑port SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for 100BASE‑FX and similar applications with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s. Operating at a wavelength of 1310 nm, the module supports duplex optical links via an LC duplex connector and is built in a metal housing with a 3.3 V operating voltage. The compact, lightweight form factor (approximately 3 g) follows MSA SFP mechanical standards and is suitable for installation in SFP slots of switches, routers and other networking equipment that accept 100BASE‑FX SFP modules.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP transceiver offers reliable optical transmission at 1310 nm with a rated throughput up to 155 Mbit/s and support for multi‑mode fiber links up to typical short-range distances. The metal enclosure provides mechanical robustness and thermal stability, while the low weight and standard SFP footprint simplify handling and installation. The module supports common protocols used in Ethernet and related optical applications and is manufactured to industry MSA guidelines to ensure interoperability with compatible hardware that supports 100BASE‑FX SFP modules.

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot of your network device while the equipment is powered down or following the vendor’s hot‑swap procedure. Connect an LC duplex fiber patch cable with appropriate fiber type (multi‑mode or single‑mode as supported) to the transceiver, ensuring transmit and receive fibers are correctly aligned. Verify device firmware and port configuration to enable 100BASE‑FX or the corresponding optical interface. If available, enable Digital Diagnostics (DDM/DOM) in the host device to monitor supply voltage, optical power and temperature.

Recommendations

Use quality LC duplex fiber patch cords and follow the hardware vendor’s compatibility list. Confirm the target device supports 100BASE‑FX SFP modules and DDM/DOM if remote diagnostics are required. Avoid bending fiber cables beyond recommended radii and protect transceiver optical ports from dust when not connected.
