Vláknový transceiver modul BlueOptics AFBR-725EMZ 25000 Mbit/s SFP28 850 nm

The BlueOptics AFBR-725EMZ is a fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 25 Gbit/s links using the SFP28 form factor. Operating at an 850 nm wavelength, this module supports short-reach multimode fiber connections and is intended for modern data center and enterprise networking environments where compact, hot-pluggable optics are required. The transceiver provides a straightforward upgrade path for servers, switches and storage equipment that accept SFP28 ports and need reliable high-speed connectivity.

Advantages

The module offers a compact SFP28 interface that enables 25 Gbit/s data transmission while maintaining backward compatibility with equipment designed for small form-factor pluggable optics. Its 850 nm operating wavelength is suitable for multimode fiber links over short distances, providing low-latency performance and efficient power usage in rack-mounted systems. The hot-pluggable design simplifies installation and replacement without powering down the host device.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 25 Gbit/s connections in data centers
• Upgrade paths for servers and top-of-rack switches with SFP28 ports
• High-throughput aggregation and leaf-spine network fabrics
• Enterprise network links between racks and access switches

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP28 (small form-factor pluggable)
• Nominal data rate: 25 000 Mbit/s
• Operating wavelength: 850 nm
• Optical reach: designed for short-reach multimode fiber (typical OM3/OM4 links)
• Hot-pluggable transceiver module for compact port density

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AFBR-725EMZ into an available SFP28 port on a compatible switch, server NIC or storage device while the host is powered on to take advantage of hot-pluggable capability. Ensure the connected fiber type is multimode and terminated with the appropriate connector type supported by the host. After insertion, verify link status and negotiated speed through the host management interface or diagnostics. Follow the equipment vendor’s guidance for optical power budgets and maximum supported cable lengths on multimode fiber.

Recommendations

Use certified OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber for optimal reach and signal integrity at 25 Gbit/s, keep patch cords and connectors clean, and confirm compatibility with the host device’s supported transceiver list before deployment. For critical installations, validate link performance with appropriate test equipment after installation.
