Módulo transceptor SFP BlueOptics 100FX-SFP-OM-8-BO 155 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 100FX-SFP-OM-8-BO is an SFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for Fast Ethernet links with a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s. The module uses an LC (UPC) fiber connector, supports multimode distances up to 2000 m, and fits standard SFP ports. Its compact SFP form factor and silver housing make it compatible with a wide range of switches and media converters that accept plug-in transceivers. The module is specified with an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours and a lightweight construction of approximately 20 g.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a stable Fast Ethernet connection using fiber optics, reducing electromagnetic interference and allowing longer link distances compared with copper. Its standard SFP form factor ensures hot-pluggability and broad compatibility with equipment that supports SFP modules. The LC (UPC) connector and multimode support enable straightforward installation in existing fiber infrastructures, while the specified MTBF indicates long-term reliability for continuous network operation.

Suitable for

• Extending Fast Ethernet segments over multimode fiber links
• Replacing or upgrading SFP ports in switches, routers, or media converters
• Connecting network devices across campus or building backbones up to 2000 m
• Environments where immunity to electromagnetic interference is required

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 100FX-SFP-OM-8-BO by inserting the module into an empty SFP port on a compatible switch, router, or media converter while the host supports SFP transceivers. Plug an LC (UPC) multimode fiber patch cable into the module's connector and secure the cable routing to avoid excessive bending. Configure the network device for Fast Ethernet operation as required, verify link status and duplex settings in the host device, and perform standard network testing to confirm connectivity.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber that matches the module's specifications and maintain fiber connectors clean to ensure optimal signal quality. Avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress on fiber cables, and consult the host device documentation for any compatibility or firmware requirements before deployment.
