SFP28 network transceiver module BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ER-IX-BO 25000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ER-IX-BO is a fiber optic SFP28 transceiver module engineered for 25 Gbit/s links. Designed for long-reach Ethernet and high-speed data networks, this compact module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 25000 Mbit/s and is intended for installation in compatible SFP28 ports. With a lightweight construction of 40 g, the module fits into standard network equipment to extend fiber connectivity while maintaining signal integrity and predictable performance.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP28 interface for 25G networks, enabling straightforward integration with switches, routers and optical equipment that accept hot-pluggable transceivers. Its fiber-optic design supports high-bandwidth transmission with low latency and electrical isolation between devices. The small form factor and low weight simplify deployment in dense rack environments and reduce space and power requirements compared with larger transceivers.

Suitable for

• High-speed data center uplinks and server interconnects
• Long-reach Ethernet and metro transport links
• Upgrading switches and routers to 25G ports
• Optical network segments requiring hot-pluggable transceivers

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP28
• Maximum data transfer rate: 25000 Mbit/s
• Form factor: SFP28 hot-pluggable module
• Physical weight: 0.04 kg
• Optical medium: single-mode or multimode fiber compatibility depends on system implementation

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ER-IX-BO into a compatible SFP28 slot on your switch or router while the host port is powered according to the equipment manufacturer's instructions. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable and ensure correct polarity and connector type for your network. After installation, verify link status and configure the interface settings on the network device to match the desired speed, duplex, and any optical parameters required by the network management system.

Recommendations

Handle the transceiver by its housing and avoid touching optical interfaces; use dust caps when the module is not connected. Ensure firmware and drivers on host devices support SFP28 25G operation and confirm compatibility with the switch or router vendor's transceiver support list. For long-reach links, verify fiber type, transceiver optical budget and link attenuation before deployment.
