SFP transceiver module BlueOptics TN-SFP-25G-BX40U-I-BO 25000 Mbit/s SFP28

The BlueOptics TN-SFP-25G-BX40U-I-BO is an SFP28 fiber optic transceiver module designed for 25 Gbit/s links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 25000 Mbit/s over single-mode fiber and operates at a wavelength of 1270 nm. The module uses an LC connector and comes in a compact metal housing with a silver finish. Compliance with CE, RoHS and FCC standards ensures compatibility with common networking environments while its lightweight construction (approximately 20 g) makes it easy to install in compatible switch and router SFP ports.

Advantages

The module combines a high 25 Gbit/s throughput with a single-mode reach up to 40 km, enabling long-distance uplinks without additional equipment. Its metal housing provides mechanical durability and thermal stability, while the standard LC interface simplifies integration with existing fiber cabling. Compliance with industry directives reduces compatibility and regulatory concerns in enterprise and service provider deployments.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP28 port on a switch, router or media converter until it clicks into place. Connect the LC-terminated single-mode fiber patch cable to the module's LC duplex connector, ensuring correct Tx/Rx orientation. Configure the network device for a 25 Gbit/s link if required by the platform's interface settings. Monitor link status and counters on the host device to confirm successful link negotiation.

Recommendations

Use well-maintained single-mode fiber and properly polished LC connectors to achieve the specified 40 km reach. Avoid excessive bending of fiber cables near the transceiver and ensure the host device firmware supports SFP28 modules at 25 Gbit/s. For installations in dusty environments, keep the transceiver dust caps on until final connection and consider using port protection when idle.
