SFP transceiver module BlueOptics SU57AF-BO 1250 Mbit/s Fiber optic

The BlueOptics SU57AF-BO SFP transceiver module is a single-form-factor fiber optic interface designed for 1.25 Gbit/s (1250 Mbit/s) transfer over single-mode fiber. Housed in a silver metal casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this compact SFP module follows MSA-compatible mechanical and electrical dimensions and provides a hot-pluggable LC duplex connection option for optical links. The product is intended for use in networking equipment that accepts SFP modules and supports 1000BASE fiber protocols.

Advantages

The module combines a lightweight, durable metal housing with a data rate of 1250 Mbit/s, offering a balance of mechanical robustness and compactness. Built to industry MSA standards, it is designed for interoperability with SFP-enabled switches, routers and storage devices. A high MTBF rating supports continuous operation and contributes to reduced maintenance needs in network deployments.

How to use

Install the SU57AF-BO into an empty SFP slot on a compatible switch, router or other network device while the host port is powered according to the equipment vendor instructions. Connect an LC duplex single-mode patch cable between the module and the remote transceiver. After insertion, verify link status on the host device and check interface speed and signal indicators provided by the equipment. Follow the device manufacturer’s documentation for any required configuration steps or firmware compatibility notes.

Recommendations

Ensure the host device supports the required 1000BASE fiber protocol and SFP modules; confirm LC duplex single-mode cabling and compatible connector polarity. Handle the transceiver with ESD precautions, keep protective dust caps on when unused, and install in accordance with the system vendor’s compatibility and configuration guidance.
