BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-BC-BO netwerk-transceivermodule glasvezel 40 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-BC-BO network transceiver module is a compact QSFP fiber optic transceiver designed for 40 Mbit/s optical links at a wavelength of 1310 nm. It supports single‑mode fiber connections with an MPO/MTP connector and is built to meet MSA QSFP mechanical and electrical specifications. The module includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real‑time measurements such as supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit/receive optical power and temperature. With a documented MTBF of 1,000,000 hours and a lightweight construction of 40 g, the module is intended for integration into compatible network equipment that accepts QSFP form‑factor optics.

Advantages

The transceiver is engineered for interoperability with hardware platforms that support QSFP modules and follows MSA compliance for consistent mechanical and electrical fit. Its MPO/MTP connector and simultaneous transmit/receive capability over optical fibers make it suitable for aggregated 40 Mbit/s links. Built-in digital diagnostics simplify remote monitoring and troubleshooting of optical links. The module's compact size and low weight enable flexible installation in switches, routers and other rack equipment while the 1310 nm wavelength supports standard single‑mode fiber networks.

How to use

Insert the QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP port of the target network device according to the device manufacturer's instructions. Connect the module to the network using an MPO/MTP single‑mode fiber patch cord, ensuring correct polarity and clean fiber endfaces. If the host hardware supports DDM/DOM, enable the monitoring function via the equipment management interface to view real‑time diagnostic parameters. Follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the module and avoid bending the fiber beyond recommended radii to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with the host device's supported transceiver list before installation and ensure the network equipment firmware supports DDM/DOM readout. Use certified single‑mode MPO/MTP patch cords and keep connectors clean to achieve optimal link performance and reach. For critical links, consider testing the module in your specific hardware environment prior to deployment.
