100G-LR4-QSFP10KM-BO netwerk-transceivermodule BlueOptics 100000 Mbit/s QSFP28

The BlueOptics 100G-LR4-QSFP10KM-BO is a 100 Gb/s fiber optic transceiver module with a QSFP28 interface, designed for long-reach single-mode links up to 10 km. Its compact QSFP28 form factor and silver housing provide dense port deployment in data center and telecom racks while supporting high-throughput aggregation and core connectivity. The module’s rated maximum data transfer rate is 100000 Mbit/s and it is specified with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, indicating suitability for continuous operation in critical network environments.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized QSFP28 connection that supports 100 Gb/s links while maintaining compatibility with equipment accepting QSFP28 form-factor transceivers. Its long-reach LR4 design enables single-mode fiber connections up to 10 km without media converters, reducing infrastructure complexity. The small, lightweight silver module offers space-efficient deployment and predictable thermal characteristics for rack-mounted switches and routers.

Suitable for

• Data center spine and leaf uplinks
• Core and aggregation switches requiring 100 Gb/s optical ports
• Carrier and metro long-reach single-mode links up to 10 km
• High-density environments where QSFP28 port density is needed

How to use

Insert the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or transponder until it latches; ensure the host device is powered down or follows hot-swap guidance from the equipment vendor if applicable. Connect single-mode fiber cables with the appropriate LC/APC or MPO interface adapter as required by the LR4 optical assembly and observe correct polarity. Verify link status and transceiver recognition in the host device’s management interface and confirm link parameters such as speed and wavelength when available.

Recommendations

Use clean, undamaged single-mode fiber and compatible patch panels or trunk cabling to maintain optical performance. Observe manufacturer and equipment vendor guidelines for ESD protection, insertion/removal procedures, and operating temperature limits. For critical links, monitor optical power and link diagnostics where supported and plan redundancy to maintain availability.
