SFP28-transceivermodule BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ER-F5-BO 25000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ER-F5-BO is a fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 25 Gbit/s single-lane links. With an SFP28 interface and a compact form factor, this module supports high-speed data transmission in data center, enterprise and telecom networks. The module’s design focuses on compatibility with SFP28 ports and efficient optical connectivity while occupying minimal rack space and adding only 40 g to equipment weight.

Advantages

This SFP28 transceiver provides a 25 000 Mbit/s maximum data transfer rate and uses the standard SFP28 form factor for broad compatibility with modern switches and servers. Its compact, lightweight construction simplifies installation and hot-swap replacement. The module is intended for optical connections that require higher bandwidth than 10G SFP+ modules while maintaining backward-compatible mechanical interface dimensions.

Suitable for

• 25 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks and aggregation links
• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Carrier and metro optical links requiring SFP28 modules
• Network equipment upgrades from 10G to 25G interfaces

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP28
• Maximum data transfer rate: 25 000 Mbit/s
• Form factor: SFP28 optical transceiver
• Typical weight: 0.04 kg

How to use

Install the transceiver into an empty SFP28 port on a compatible switch, router or network interface card following the host device manufacturer’s guidelines. Ensure proper handling of the fiber connectors and polarity when attaching fiber patch cords. After insertion, verify link status in the host device management interface and confirm the negotiated speed is 25 Gbit/s or as required by the link configuration. For removal, power down the port if required by the equipment manual or use the software interface to disable the port before hot-swapping to avoid transient link issues.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode fiber patch cords and maintain clean connector endfaces to ensure optimal optical performance. Confirm transceiver compatibility with the network equipment vendor and verify link settings after installation. Store unused modules in protective packaging to prevent contamination and mechanical damage.
