Glasvezel-transceivermodule BlueOptics 7G17A03537-BO SFP28 100m

The BlueOptics 7G17A03537-BO SFP28 100m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed short-range data transmission. Compliant with SFP28 form factor and MSA standards, this module supports multimode fiber connections with LC duplex interface and is suitable for links up to 100 meters. The module features an aluminium housing and a lightweight construction of approximately 20 grams, providing mechanical robustness while remaining compact for installation in switches, routers and storage interfaces that accept SFP28 modules.

Advantages

This transceiver offers 25GBASE-SR performance for Ethernet and related high-speed protocols over multimode fiber, with separate transmitter and receiver paths operating at 850 nm. The aluminium casing ensures good thermal dissipation and mechanical protection, and the low weight simplifies handling and rack installation. The module is designed according to MSA-compatible dimensions and signalling, enabling interoperability with equipment that supports standard SFP28 SR optics.

Suitable for

• Short-range 25 Gbit/s Ethernet links over multimode fiber (up to 100 m)
• Interconnects between switches, routers and servers in data centers
• High-performance storage networks and Fibre Channel over Ethernet implementations
• Upgrading network ports to SFP28-capable optics in compatible hardware

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP28 (25G-capable)
• Maximum link distance: up to 100 meters on multimode fiber
• Optical wavelength: 850 nm (transmit and receive)
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approximately 0.02 kg
• Supported protocols: 25G Ethernet and compatible high-speed optical protocols

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28 module into any compatible SFP28 port following the host device manufacturer’s hot-plug procedure. Connect an LC duplex multimode fiber patch cable between transceivers on each end of the link, ensuring correct orientation of transmit and receive fibers. Verify link status and negotiate speed through the host system’s management interface. If Digital Diagnostics Monitoring is supported by the host, use the management software to monitor parameters such as optical power and temperature for troubleshooting and link verification.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use high-quality OM3/OM4 multimode fiber and LC duplex patch cords, ensure clean connector end-faces, and verify that the host device firmware supports SFP28 SR optics. Avoid exceeding the specified link distance and observe electrostatic discharge precautions during handling and installation.
