Fibre optic transceiver module BlueOptics 10502-BO SFP28 100m

The BlueOptics 10502-BO SFP28 100m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for 25G multimode short-reach links up to 100 meters. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing 20 grams, this SFP28 module provides a compact interface for high-speed data transmission via an LC duplex connector. It supports industry-standard SFP28 form factor interoperability and is intended for integration into compatible networking equipment that accepts SFP28 transceivers.

Advantages

The aluminium body offers a durable and thermally conductive enclosure while keeping the module lightweight. As an SFP28-form-factor transceiver, it enables 25G data rates over multimode fiber with a short-reach design, simplifying upgrades in servers, switches and storage systems. Its standard LC duplex interface and compact footprint make it suitable for dense port configurations and easy hot-swap replacement.

Suitable for

• 25G short-reach links over multimode fiber up to 100 meters
• High-density switches and routers with SFP28 ports
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch uplinks within data centers
• Storage area network connections and converged network equipment

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics 10502-BO SFP28 module into an available SFP28-compatible port on network equipment while the host device is powered according to the vendor's hot-swap procedures. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cables to the module, ensuring correct TX/RX orientation. Verify link status in the host device management interface and confirm that the transceiver is recognized and operating at the expected data rate. If digital diagnostics are supported by the host and module, use the management interface to monitor optical parameters.

Recommendations

Use high-quality OM3/OM4 multimode fiber patch cords and clean connector endfaces before mating. Ensure the target equipment officially supports SFP28 modules of this type to guarantee compatibility. Follow the host vendor's guidelines for firmware and diagnostics settings to enable full functionality and monitoring.
