Transceiver SFP BlueOptics SFP-O3-M-BO 155 Mbit/s 1310 nm argento

The BlueOptics SFP-O3-M-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for reliable 100BASE-FX network links with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s. The module operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm, uses an LC duplex connector, and is housed in a metal casing for mechanical durability. It is powered from a 3.3 V input and weighs approximately 3 g, making it compact and suitable for installation in compatible SFP ports on switches, routers and other network devices that follow MSA standards.

Advantages

This SFP transceiver supports bidirectional optical transmission over multimode fiber and conforms to MSA-defined SFP form-factor standards to ensure physical compatibility with a wide range of devices. The metal housing provides mechanical robustness and thermal stability. The module is engineered to be compatible with hardware platforms that accept MRV SFP-O3-M style 100BASE-FX SFPs and is tested for interoperability. The lightweight design and standard SFP interface simplify installation and replacement in existing network equipment.

Suitable for

• Establishing 100BASE-FX fiber links up to typical multimode distances
• Use in switches, routers and storage/telecom equipment with SFP slots
• Deployments requiring 1310 nm optical wavelength and LC duplex connections
• Environments where a compact, metal-housed SFP module is preferred

How to use

Install the SFP transceiver into an empty SFP slot of a compatible switch, router or other network device following the vendor’s hot-swap instructions. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Confirm that the host device recognizes the module and that any required software/firmware supports the module’s digital diagnostic functions if those features are needed. Observe proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the transceiver and keep protective dust caps on unused connectors until cabling is attached.

Recommendations

Use quality multimode fiber and matching LC duplex patch cords to achieve optimal link performance. Verify hardware compatibility and enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) in the host device if real-time diagnostics are required. Store and operate the module within the environmental limits specified by your system vendor and avoid mechanical stress on the connectors and cable.
