Módulo transceptor SFP BlueOptics 500SSM15 R0001-BO 155 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 500SSM15 R0001-BO SFP transceiver module is a compact fiber optic interface designed for Fast Ethernet environments. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 155 Mbit/s and is built for single‑mode connections with an LC connector. The module has a small SFP form factor, a silver housing, a low weight of approximately 20 g and an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, which together suit constrained rack or switch port environments where reliable fiber links are required.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized SFP form factor for hot‑pluggable installation and compatibility with a wide range of network equipment that accepts SFP modules. It supports up to 20,000 m single‑mode link distance, enabling long‑reach fiber connections. The silver metal housing provides mechanical protection while keeping the unit lightweight, and the LC connector ensures a compact duplex fiber interface. The specified MTBF indicates a long operational lifetime for continuous deployment.

Suitable for

• Fast Ethernet fiber uplinks between switches or media converters
• Long‑distance single‑mode fiber runs up to 20 km
• Replacement or expansion of SFP ports in routers, switches, and transceivers
• Network environments requiring compact, hot‑pluggable transceiver modules

How to use

Power down the host device or follow the manufacturer’s hot‑swap instructions, align the SFP module with the SFP port and slide it in until it clicks into place. Connect the LC duplex fiber cable to the module, ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Configure the host device for Fast Ethernet operation and verify link status through the device’s LEDs or management interface. To remove, depress the ejector latch and carefully pull the module out of the port.

Recommendations

Use single‑mode LC duplex fiber cable rated for the intended distance and with appropriate attenuation characteristics. Verify compatibility with the host equipment and firmware to ensure proper link negotiation at 155 Mbit/s or Fast Ethernet settings. Handle the module and connectors with dust caps on when not in use and avoid touching fiber endfaces to maintain signal integrity.
