SFP28 transceiver CBO SFP28-25G-ESR-LS-BO 25 Gbit/s LC, 300 m

CBO SFP28-25G-ESR-LS-BO is a pluggable SFP28 optical transceiver module that supports a 25 Gbps data rate with an LC duplex connector and a maximum reach of up to 300 meters over single-mode or specified fiber type. Designed for high-speed Ethernet and data center interconnects, this compact module provides a hot-swappable interface for servers, switches and routers that require 25G performance in short-reach fiber links.

Advantages

The module offers 25 Gbps line rate in a small form factor compatible with SFP28 ports, enabling higher port density in network equipment. Its LC connector and short-reach capability make it suitable for intra-rack and inter-rack connections in data centers. Hot-swappable design simplifies installation and replacement without powering down host equipment. The product is produced by BlueOptics to meet common interoperability expectations for network transceiver modules.

Suitable for

• 25 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centers
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch short-reach fiber connections
• High-speed uplinks and aggregation ports requiring LC connections
• Environments where hot-swappable 25G transceivers are needed

Key specifications

• Data rate: 25 Gbps
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Maximum reach: up to 300 m
• Form factor: SFP28
• Application: short-reach optical links for Ethernet and data center interconnects

How to use

Insert the SFP28 transceiver into a compatible SFP28 port on a switch, router or server until it latches. Connect LC duplex fiber patch cables following correct polarity for transmit and receive. After installation the host device should detect the transceiver; configure relevant port settings (speed, duplex, and interface type) in the device management if required. To replace the module, remove it using the release mechanism while the device is powered on if supported, then insert the new transceiver and verify link status.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber or the fiber type specified by your network design for reaches up to 300 m, maintain proper cleanliness of LC connectors, and verify compatibility with your equipment vendor's supported transceiver list to ensure reliable 25G operation.
