Modulo ricetrasmettitore SFP BlueOptics 100FX-SFP-IR-OM-BO 155 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 100FX-SFP-IR-OM-BO is a compact SFP transceiver module for fiber optic networks, supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s. Designed for single-mode or multimode deployment depending on fiber type, it operates at a wavelength of 1360 nm and uses an LC connector. With a maximum transfer distance of up to 20,000 m and a small lightweight metal housing finished in silver, the module fits standard SFP slots to extend or restore network links where fiber connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module offers a small form factor compatible with common SFP ports, facilitating easy hot-plug installation. It provides reliable transmission characteristics suitable for metropolitan and campus links with a long mean time between failures of 1,000,000 hours. The LC connector ensures stable fiber mating and the metal housing contributes to mechanical durability and heat dissipation while keeping the transceiver lightweight.

Suitable for

• Extending fiber links between switches and media converters
• Replacing or upgrading SFP ports in network equipment
• Long-distance point-to-point connections up to 20 km
• Integration into industrial or enterprise fiber networks requiring 155 Mbit/s links

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics 100FX-SFP-IR-OM-BO into an empty SFP slot of compatible network equipment while the device is powered on or off, following the equipment manufacturer’s guidance for hot-plugging. Connect the LC-terminated fiber patch cable to the transceiver ensuring proper polarity and a secure mating to avoid signal loss. Configure the host device for the appropriate link speed and fiber settings if required by the switch or media converter. Monitor link status indicators on the host device to confirm successful connection.

Recommendations

Use clean, certified LC fiber connectors and adhere to bend-radius and handling guidelines to maintain signal integrity. Verify compatibility with the target equipment and firmware; when deploying over long distances, test the link performance after installation and maintain regular inspections to ensure continued reliability.
