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

The BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ERL-30-MV-BO is a fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 25 Gbit/s links using the SFP28 form factor. Designed for use in data centers and enterprise networks, this module supports long-reach single-mode transmission up to 30,000 m and uses an LC fiber connector for duplex connections. The compact SFP28 interface provides hot-pluggable compatibility with a wide range of switches and network devices that accept SFP28 modules, enabling reliable high-speed connectivity where extended reach is required.

Advantages

This transceiver offers a combination of high data rate and long-range performance, supporting 25,000 Mbit/s transmission over distances up to 30 km on single-mode fiber. The SFP28 form factor delivers backward-compatible mechanical fit for equipment that accepts SFP/SFP28 modules, while the LC connector ensures standard duplex fiber connections. The module’s design emphasizes stable optical performance and interoperability with commonly deployed networking hardware.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks and spine-leaf fabrics requiring 25 Gbit/s long-reach links
• Enterprise WAN connections over single-mode fiber where 30 km reach is needed
• Aggregation ports and campus backbone segments with LC duplex connectors

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28-25G-ERL-30-MV-BO by inserting the module into an SFP28-compatible port on your switch or router until it clicks into place. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cables to the module’s LC ports, observing correct transmit and receive orientation. After physical installation, verify link status on the host device and configure the port speed and settings as required by the network. Follow your equipment vendor’s guidelines for compatibility and any required firmware or vendor-specific configuration.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber rated for 25 Gbit/s and maintain clean LC connectors to ensure optimal optical performance. Verify compatibility with the host device and consult manufacturer documentation for supported optics lists. For long-distance runs up to 30 km, plan for appropriate attenuation and dispersion budgets and consider using inline optical monitoring where available.
