SFP28 transceiver module BlueOptics 407-BBXX 25000 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics 407-BBXX SFP28 transceiver module is a compact optical interface designed for 25 Gbit/s class short-range fiber links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 25000 Mbit/s and transmits at an 850 nm wavelength. With a lightweight metal housing in silver and a standardized SFP28 interface, the module is suitable for high-density switch and server ports where small form-factor, hot-pluggable optical connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized SFP28 form factor that ensures compatibility with equipment supporting 25 Gbit/s optics and allows hot-swap installation without powering down connected devices. Its 850 nm wavelength and 25 Gbit/s capability enable reliable short-reach multimode fiber links. The lightweight silver housing aids thermal dissipation and fits high-density racks while maintaining low physical footprint and straightforward handling.

Suitable for

• Short-reach data center interconnects over multimode fiber
• 25 Gbit/s uplinks for switches and servers
• High-density aggregation and spine-leaf topologies
• Replacement or upgrade of existing SFP28 ports

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP28 small form-factor pluggable
• Maximum data transfer rate: 25000 Mbit/s (25 Gbit/s)
• Optical wavelength: 850 nm for short-range multimode fiber
• Weight: 0.02 kg (20 g)
• Housing colour: Silver metal casing

How to use

Insert the SFP28 transceiver into a compatible SFP28 slot on a switch, router or server until it latches; no tools are required. Connect a suitable multimode fiber patch cable with matching 850 nm characteristics to the transceiver connector. Observe manufacturer guidelines for connector cleaning and ESD precautions when handling the module. If necessary, configure the host device port speed and optical settings according to the switch or server documentation to recognize the module and enable the 25 Gbit/s link.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber for optimal short-reach performance at 850 nm, maintain clean fiber connectors to avoid signal degradation, and follow ESD-safe handling procedures when installing or removing the transceiver.
