SFP28 transceiver module BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ERL-30-LO-BO 25000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ERL-30-LO-BO is a compact fiber optic SFP28 transceiver module designed for high-speed 25 Gbit/s links. It supports single-mode connections with LC duplex interface and is intended for long-reach applications up to 30 km. The module offers compatibility with SFP28 ports to extend network capacity in data centers, aggregation switches, and high-performance network equipment while maintaining a small form factor and low power consumption.

Advantages

This transceiver provides a sustained data transfer rate of up to 25,000 Mbit/s optimized for 25G Ethernet and similar protocols. Its single-mode optics and LC connector enable reliable long-distance transmission up to 30,000 m, reducing the need for intermediate repeaters. The compact SFP28 form factor ensures broad compatibility with modern network switches and routers that accept SFP28 modules, facilitating straightforward upgrades of existing infrastructure.

Suitable for

• 25G Ethernet uplinks between switches or to aggregation devices
• Long-distance single-mode fiber connections in data centers
• High-performance campus backbone links
• Fiber links requiring LC duplex connectors

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP28 form factor
• Maximum data transfer rate: 25000 Mbit/s
• Maximum transmission distance: 30000 m (single-mode)
• Optical connector type: LC duplex

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28 module into a compatible SFP28 port on the switch, router, or media converter while the device is powered according to the host vendor's instructions. Connect a single-mode LC-terminated fiber patch cable to the module's LC connector, ensuring correct transmit/receive alignment. Confirm link status and negotiate appropriate speed and duplex settings on the host device. For safe handling, avoid touching the optical interfaces and keep protective caps on unused ports until connection.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode fiber cabling and LC connectors to achieve the specified 30 km range. Verify compatibility with the host device firmware and vendor-supported transceiver list to ensure full feature support. Keep the module's optical ports clean and use dust caps when not in use; follow ESD-safe handling procedures during installation.
