Glasvezel-transceivermodule BlueOptics 3HE04324AA-BO SFP 40000 m aluminium

The BlueOptics 3HE04324AA-BO SFP 40000 m Aluminium is a single-mode fiber optic transceiver module designed for point-to-point optical links up to 40,000 metres. Housed in an aluminium case and weighing approximately 20 g, this SFP-form factor module provides a compact, lightweight option for network equipment that accepts SFP transceivers and LC simplex connectors. The module supports optical transmission and reception using separate wavelengths suitable for long-reach single-mode fiber links and follows common MSA mechanical standards.

Advantages

The aluminium housing offers mechanical durability and thermal stability while keeping overall weight low. The SFP interface type ensures compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers and other network devices that accept standard SFP modules. Designed for long-distance single-mode fiber links, the transceiver delivers stable optical connectivity for backbone and campus links where low electromagnetic interference and high signal integrity are required.

Suitable for

• Long-reach single-mode fiber backbone links up to 40 km
• Inter-building and campus network connections
• Integration into switches, routers and storage systems with SFP ports
• Environments requiring compact, lightweight transceiver modules

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Maximum transmission distance: 40,000 metres (40 km) over single-mode fiber
• Connector type: LC simplex
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg
• Optical FDDI/ Ethernet/ Fibre Channel compatible single-mode operation (separate transmit and receive wavelengths)

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP module into an active SFP slot on a compatible network device while the device is powered down or hot-pluggable as supported by the equipment. Connect an appropriate single-mode LC simplex patch cable between this transceiver and the corresponding transceiver at the remote end. Observe device and vendor guidelines for proper insertion and removal, and verify link status through the host device interface. Ensure the host hardware supports the required optical wavelengths and SFP form factor.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber cables and LC simplex connectors with proper polishing and cleanliness to achieve the specified 40 km range. Verify that the host device supports the transceiver's wavelengths and optical power budget. For monitoring and easier maintenance, enable any available digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) feature on compatible hardware to observe transmitter and receiver parameters.
