40G-LR4-QSFP10KM-BO netwerktransceivermodule BlueOptics 40000 Mbit/s QSFP

The BlueOptics 40G-LR4-QSFP10KM-BO is a fiber optic network transceiver module that supports a maximum data transfer rate of 40,000 Mbit/s through a QSFP interface. Designed for long-reach single-mode links, the module offers a compact form factor and a lightweight metal housing in silver, with an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours for reliable operation in data center and carrier environments.

Advantages

This QSFP transceiver provides high-bandwidth 40G connectivity while maintaining a small physical footprint and low weight of 20 g. The metal housing helps with thermal dissipation and mechanical protection. With a specified mean time between failures of 1,000,000 hours, the module is intended to deliver stable uptime for critical network segments. The QSFP interface ensures compatibility with equipment supporting QSFP optics for straightforward installation and replacement.

Suitable for

• 40G Ethernet aggregation and spine links in data centers
• Long-reach single-mode fiber connections up to 10 km
• High-performance computing clusters and inter-switch links
• Carrier and metro network uplinks requiring QSFP form factor

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP
• Maximum data transfer rate: 40,000 Mbit/s
• Form factor: QSFP (quad small form-factor pluggable)
• Typical reach: designed for long-reach single-mode fiber (up to 10 km)
• Housing colour and material: silver metal housing
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Reliability: MTBF approximately 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Handle the transceiver by its housing and avoid touching the fiber connector endface. Insert the QSFP module into a compatible QSFP port on a switch, router, or transceiver cage until it latches, then connect single-mode fiber cables with appropriate LC connectors or breakout assemblies as required. Observe link negotiation and port LEDs on the host device to confirm successful operation. Use standard ESD precautions during installation and refer to your equipment vendor's guidance for any specific port configuration or firmware compatibility notes.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, install the module in equipment that supports QSFP optics and is specified for 40G-LR4 operation. Use clean, single-mode fiber and certified connectors, maintain proper airflow and thermal conditions in the rack, and verify compatibility with host device transceiver support lists. Periodic inspection of connectors and adherence to ESD handling will help preserve MTBF and link stability.
