Glasvezel-SFP-transceiver BlueOptics AFBR-5705APZ-BC-BO LC aluminium 20 g

The BlueOptics AFBR-5705APZ-BC-BO LC Aluminium 20g is an SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for multimode optical links. It uses an LC duplex connector and an SFP interface in a compact aluminum housing weighing approximately 20 g. The module supports short-reach optical transmission using 850 nm optics and follows MSA form-factor guidelines to fit industry-standard SFP ports.

Advantages

This BlueOptics transceiver offers broad compatibility with equipment that accepts MSA-compliant SFP modules. The aluminum casing provides a durable, lightweight enclosure while maintaining thermal stability. Designed for multimode fiber and LC duplex connections, the module supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels and is suitable for reliable short-distance data transfer in typical networking environments.

Suitable for

• Multimode fiber links within data centers and server rooms
• Switch-to-switch or switch-to-server Ethernet connections
• Small and medium enterprise network uplinks and aggregation
• Applications requiring MSA-compliant SFP modules with LC connectors

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP (MSA form factor)
• Connector: LC duplex
• Optical wavelength: 850 nm (multimode operation)
• Typical reach: short-range multimode links (industry standard for 850 nm optics)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or other networking device, ensuring the device supports MSA-compliant 1000Base-SX SFP modules. Connect LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to the transmit and receive ports as marked. Verify link status and configuration on the host device; enable any required interface settings such as speed and duplex. If available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) on supported hardware to access real-time module parameters.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode fiber patch cords and properly rated patch panels to achieve optimal link performance. Confirm the host device firmware supports third-party SFP modules and DDM/DOM if diagnostic monitoring is required. Handle the transceiver with care, keep optical ports capped when not in use, and follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions during installation.
