SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SFP992-1-BO Fiber optic 550 m

The BlueOptics SFP992-1-BO is a fiber optic SFP transceiver module designed for short-range multimode fiber links with a maximum transfer distance of 550 m. The module follows MSA-compliant SFP form-factor conventions and uses an LC duplex interface for simultaneous transmit and receive. Housed in an aluminium-coloured metal body and weighing approximately 20 g, this transceiver supports 1000Base-SX optical signalling suitable for 1.25 Gbit/s applications over multimode fiber and includes digital diagnostics monitoring capabilities where supported by host hardware.

Advantages

The BlueOptics SFP992-1-BO offers industry-standard SFP compatibility for straightforward integration into equipment that supports 1000Base-SX modules. Its metal housing provides mechanical durability and electromagnetic resilience for stable operation. Built to common MSA specifications, the module supports optical transmission and reception at 850 nm on multimode fiber, enabling reliable gigabit Ethernet links up to 550 m. Digital diagnostic monitoring (when supported by the connected hardware) allows remote readout of operating parameters to assist in maintenance and fault analysis.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP992-1-BO by inserting it into an SFP port of a compatible switch, router or storage device following the host manufacturer’s hot-plugging instructions. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module’s transmit and receive ports, ensuring correct polarity and that the fiber type and patch cords match the intended multimode standard. Verify link status on the host device and, if available, read diagnostic values through the device management interface to confirm operating parameters such as optical power and temperature.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode fiber and LC duplex patch cords to achieve the specified 550 m range. Confirm that the host hardware supports 1000Base-SX modules and, if you require remote monitoring, that the platform exposes DDM/DOM telemetry. For best results, clean connectors before mating and follow the equipment vendor’s guidelines for handling and ESD precautions.
