Fibre optic transceiver module BlueOptics 407-BCBK-BO SFP28 100m

The BlueOptics 407-BCBK-BO SFP28 100m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for short-reach high-speed links up to 100 meters over multimode fiber. The module uses an SFP28 interface in an aluminium housing and supports data rates up to 25 Gbit/s. It features LC duplex connectivity, has compact dimensions and a lightweight construction (approximately 0.04 kg), and is supplied as a single unit suitable for use in switches, routers, storage systems and other network equipment that accept SFP28 form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

The transceiver implements SFP28 MSA-compliant electrical and optical interfaces to provide interoperability with compatible hardware platforms. It supports 25GBASE-SR short-reach transmission using 850 nm LED/VCSEL optics and LC duplex connectors for simultaneous transmit and receive channels. The aluminium housing offers mechanical protection and thermal dissipation while the compact SFP28 form factor reduces space consumption in dense networking environments. The module is factory-tested to ensure functionality and to facilitate integration into existing multimode fiber infrastructures.

Suitable for

• 25G short-reach links in data center top-of-rack and aggregation switches
• High-speed server and storage interconnects within the same data hall
• Upgrading existing multimode fiber runs to 25G connectivity
• Replacement of compatible SFP28 transceivers in networking equipment that supports 25GBASE-SR

How to use

Insert the SFP28 module into a compatible SFP28 cage or port on the target device following the device manufacturer’s guidelines. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords ensuring correct orientation of transmit and receive channels at both ends. Verify link status and speed through the host device management interface. If the host supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), enable or query the diagnostic counters to monitor supply voltage, optical transmit power, receive power and module temperature for proactive maintenance.

Recommendations

Use verified multimode OM3/OM4 patch cords and maintain proper fiber cleanliness to achieve the specified 100 m reach. Confirm that the target hardware supports SFP28 25GBASE-SR modules and, if required, enable DDM/DOM support in the host system to monitor module parameters. For high-density deployments, consider airflow and thermal conditions to ensure stable operation within the module’s normal temperature range.
