Glasvezel-transceivermodule BlueOptics 3HE11240AA-BO QSFP LC-aansluiting

The BlueOptics 3HE11240AA-BO QSFP LC connector is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for 40G high-speed data transmission over single-mode fiber. Constructed with an aluminium housing and weighing approximately 40 g, this QSFP transceiver implements a duplex LC interface and follows MSA form-factor guidelines to ensure physical interoperability with compatible networking equipment. The module supports Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet and SDH/SONET applications and is suitable for long-reach links where single-mode optics and QSFP form factor are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP transceiver offers a compact QSFP interface with LC duplex connectivity in a durable aluminium enclosure. It is designed and manufactured to MSA-compliant mechanical and optical specifications, enabling compatibility with a range of network switches, routers and storage platforms that accept QSFP modules with LC connectors. The transceiver supports optical transmission over extended distances on single-mode fiber and includes digital diagnostics capability for monitoring key parameters during operation.

Suitable for

• 40G Ethernet links over single-mode fiber
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet for storage networks
• Long-reach SDH/SONET optical connections
• Integration into switches, routers and storage systems with QSFP LC support

Key specifications

• Connector type: LC duplex
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber
• Typical supported data rate: up to 40 Gbit/s
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: approx. 0.04 kg
• Digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) support for real-time parameter monitoring

How to use

Handle the transceiver by its housing and avoid touching the optical interfaces. Insert the QSFP module into a compatible QSFP cage on the host device until it seats and locks according to the hardware vendor’s procedure. Connect LC duplex single-mode patch cords to the module’s LC ports, observing correct transmit/receive alignment. After installation, verify the link state and consult the host equipment’s interface status messages or CLI to confirm the module is recognized and operational. If DDM/DOM is supported by the host, use the management interface to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, optical transmit output and receive input power, and module temperature.

Recommendations

Ensure compatibility with the target hardware and firmware before deployment. Use clean, undamaged LC patch cords and observe ESD precautions when handling the module. For longest service life, operate the transceiver within the host’s specified temperature and power limits and schedule periodic optical power checks using the DDM/DOM readings where available.
