Glasvezel-SFP-transceiver BlueOptics MGBIC-LC04-BO 2000m aluminium

The BlueOptics MGBIC-LC04-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver designed for 100BASE-FX applications, providing reliable optical links over multi-mode fiber up to 2000 meters. Housed in a lightweight aluminium case and weighing approximately 20 grams, this module uses LC duplex connectors and operates with 1310 nm transmit and receive wavelengths. It is manufactured according to MSA standards and is compatible with systems that support the original MGBIC-LC04 transceiver.

Advantages

The module delivers stable optical transmission for Ethernet and related protocols up to 155 Mbit/s over distances up to 2 km while remaining compact and durable due to its aluminium housing and low weight. It follows MSA form-factor and interface specifications for broad interoperability and includes components selected for long service life and consistent performance. The transceiver supports simultaneous transmit and receive on separate fibers through an LC duplex connector.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into an SFP slot of a compatible switch, router, or network appliance while the device is powered down or following the vendor's hot-swap guidelines. Connect an LC duplex multi-mode fiber patch cable to the module, ensuring correct orientation of transmit and receive fibers. Verify link status in the host device management interface and, if available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) to monitor optical parameters in real time. Follow the equipment vendor's firmware and compatibility recommendations to ensure full functionality.

Recommendations

Use high-quality LC duplex multi-mode fiber patch cords and, where applicable, patch panels to achieve optimal range and signal integrity. Confirm that the host device supports DDM/DOM if diagnostics are required, and consult equipment compatibility lists before deployment to ensure the module is supported by the target hardware.
