SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP100MM5-W-BO 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP100MM5-W-BO is a compact fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for 100BASE-FX networks with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s and an operating wavelength of 1310 nm. The module uses an LC duplex connector and a metal housing, requires a 3.3 V supply and has a lightweight construction of approximately 3 g. It supports multi-mode fiber links and is compatible with equipment that follows MSA SFP standards.

Advantages

This transceiver offers standardized SFP form factor compatibility and a metal enclosure for mechanical stability and EMI shielding. With support for 155 Mbit/s data rates over 1310 nm optics and LC duplex connections, it provides reliable fiber connectivity for short-distance multi-mode links. The low weight and standard 3.3 V power requirement allow easy installation in switches, routers or storage devices that accept MSA-compliant SFP modules.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an empty SFP slot on a compatible network device while the device is powered down or following the vendor-recommended hot-swap procedure. Connect LC duplex fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports, observing proper polarity. Ensure the host device is configured for a 100BASE-FX link and verify link status in the equipment management interface. If available and supported by the host hardware, enable Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) to monitor supply voltage, laser bias, output/input power and temperature.

Recommendations

Use high-quality LC duplex multi-mode patch cords and maintain clean fiber endfaces to achieve optimal link performance. Confirm vendor compatibility of the SFP slot and enable DDM only if the host device supports SFF-8472 diagnostics. For best results over longer distances, select appropriate multi-mode fiber types and follow the cabling guidelines of the network equipment manufacturer.
