SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SRX-SFP-FE-FX-BO 155 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SRX-SFP-FE-FX-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 100BASE-FX applications with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s. Housed in a durable silver metal casing and weighing just 20 g, this compact SFP module follows MSA-defined mechanical and electrical standards and provides a reliable optical interface with LC duplex connectivity for multimode fiber links. The module is intended for use in compatible network devices that accept SFP 100BASE-FX transceivers.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver offers a compact form factor and MSA-compliant interface for plug-and-play compatibility with a wide range of networking equipment. The metal housing provides mechanical robustness and heat dissipation, while the specified MTBF of 1,000,000 hours indicates long-term operational reliability. At 155 Mbit/s and with an LC duplex optical interface, the module supports standard optical Ethernet and similar optical transport protocols over short multimode fiber links.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the module into an SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or other networking device while the device is powered down or following the vendor’s hot-swap guidance. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the module’s transmit and receive ports, ensuring correct fiber polarity. Configure the host device for 100BASE-FX operation if required by the device’s firmware or software. Verify link status and monitor the connection through the host device’s management interface.

Recommendations

Use high-quality LC duplex multimode patch cords and ensure connectors and patch panels are clean to maintain optimal optical performance. Confirm that the target hardware supports 100BASE-FX SFP modules and, if needed, enable any vendor-specific settings that permit third-party transceivers. For troubleshooting, check link LEDs and host diagnostics and replace the transceiver if persistent signal issues occur.
