SFP28-transceivermodule BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ERL-30-EE-BO 25000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ERL-30-EE-BO is a fiber optic SFP28 transceiver module engineered for 25 Gbit/s optical links. It supports a 25000 Mbit/s line rate over single-mode fiber with LC connector compatibility and is intended for use in data centers, enterprise core and aggregation layers, and high-bandwidth server or switch interconnects. The module is designed to provide long-reach connectivity with a maximum transfer distance of up to 30,000 meters, enabling links between buildings or across campus environments while fitting standard SFP28 ports.

Advantages

This SFP28 transceiver offers a high data rate of 25000 Mbit/s combined with long-reach capability to 30,000 m, enabling high-throughput optical connections over single-mode fiber. The LC fiber connector provides broad compatibility with common patch panels and fiber cabling. Its SFP28 form factor ensures hot-pluggable installation and compact integration into modern 25G networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Data center switch-to-switch uplinks and spine-leaf fabrics
• High-speed server connectivity and NIC uplinks
• Campus backbone links and inter-building fiber runs
• Enterprise aggregation layers requiring 25G optical links

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP28 (hot-pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 25000 Mbit/s
• Maximum transfer distance: 30000 m over single-mode fiber
• Fiber connector type: LC duplex
• Media type: single-mode optical fiber

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28 transceiver into a compatible SFP28 slot on a switch, router, or network interface card while the host device is powered per vendor recommendations for hot-plug insertion. Connect the LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cable to the module, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. After physical installation, verify link status and negotiate speed in the host device management interface. Monitor optical power and link diagnostics through the equipment’s status pages as needed.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode LC patch cables and follow your network equipment vendor’s compatibility list to ensure full functionality. For long links approaching the maximum distance, confirm optical budget and perform power margin testing. Maintain clean fiber endfaces and use appropriate dust caps when the module is not in use.
