SFP-transceiver BlueOptics R9F88A-BO 155 Mbit/s glasvezel

The BlueOptics R9F88A-BO SFP transceiver is a fiber optic module for networking applications with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s. Encased in an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 20 g, this SFP module supports LC duplex fiber connections and is designed to transmit and receive optical signals over multimode fiber according to MSA physical form-factor standards. The module is suitable for integration into network switches, routers and other compatible hardware that accepts SFP optics.

Advantages

The metal housing provides mechanical stability and thermal dissipation while the compact SFP form factor enables hot-pluggable installation in compatible ports. Support for a 155 Mbit/s transfer rate makes the transceiver appropriate for standard 100BASE-FX applications. The lightweight design and standardized LC duplex interface ensure straightforward replacement or upgrade of existing fiber links without changes to patching or port arrangements.

How to use

Insert the SFP transceiver into a compatible SFP slot on a switch, router or other network device while the device is powered according to the manufacturer's port hot-plug guidance. Terminate the LC duplex patch cord to the transceiver and the remote transceiver or patch panel, ensuring correct transmit/receive alignment. Configure the network device port as required by your network settings and test the optical link for signal presence and expected throughput. Follow the host device documentation for any firmware or software settings that enable optical diagnostics if available.

Recommendations

Use appropriate multimode LC duplex patch cables and standard-compliant transceivers at both ends of the link for optimal performance. Verify that the host hardware supports the required optical data rate and form factor, and consult the network equipment vendor's compatibility list if needed. Handle the transceiver by its housing, protect the optical interfaces with dust caps when not in use, and avoid exposure to excessive mechanical stress or moisture.
