SFP28-transceiver module BlueOptics SFP28-25G-LR-FR-BO 25000 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics SFP28-25G-LR-FR-BO is a fiber optic SFP28 transceiver module supporting data rates up to 25,000 Mbit/s. It transmits and receives at a wavelength of 1310 nm and is intended for single-mode fiber links using LC duplex connectors. The module is housed in a metal casing, operates from a 3.3 V supply and has a compact, lightweight design suitable for high-density networking equipment.

Advantages

This SFP28 module conforms to SFP28 interface standards and is designed for interoperability with devices that support 25GBASE-LR optics. Its metal housing provides mechanical stability and EMI shielding while the single-mode 1310 nm optics support long-reach optical links. The module’s low weight and standard SFP28 form factor make it compatible with a range of switches, routers and other network platforms that accept SFP28 transceivers.

Suitable for

• 25G Ethernet uplinks and inter-switch connections over single-mode fiber
• High-speed links in data center spine and aggregation layers
• Applications requiring long-reach single-mode optical connections

How to use

Install the SFP28 module into a compatible SFP28 port on a switch, router or other networking device while the host is powered down or following the vendor’s hot‑swap guidance. Connect LC duplex single‑mode fiber patch cords ensuring correct transmit-to-receive orientation. Verify link status through the host device’s management interface and, if available, enable or read Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/receive power and temperature in real time. Ensure the connected hardware officially supports 25GBASE-LR optics and SFP28 modules before deployment.

Recommendations

Use low-loss single-mode fiber and quality LC duplex patch cords to achieve optimal range and signal integrity. Confirm DDM/DOM support on the host platform if remote monitoring is required. Follow the equipment manufacturer’s guidelines for hot‑swapping and firmware compatibility to ensure reliable operation.
