Glasvezel-transceivermodule BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-F5-BO 40 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-F5-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module for single-mode links operating at 1310 nm with a maximum data rate of 40 Mbit/s. Designed according to MSA QSFP form-factor specifications, this module uses an MPO/MTP connector and includes digital diagnostics to monitor key optical and electrical parameters. The unit is a compact, 40 g pluggable transceiver intended for use in networking equipment that supports QSFP 40GBASE-PLR4 interfaces and is supplied as a single unit.

Advantages

This QSFP transceiver supports bidirectional optical transmission at 1310 nm with an MPO/MTP interface, enabling simultaneous send and receive over single-mode fiber. It implements digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) to provide real-time information such as supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit/receive power and temperature for easier troubleshooting and remote maintenance. Manufactured to MSA QSFP standards and using industry-grade components, the module offers a high mean time between failures (MTBF) to support continuous operation in data centers and carrier networks.

Suitable for

• 40G Ethernet aggregation and core links
• High-speed interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet and SDH/SONET environments up to 10 km
• Network upgrades where QSFP 40GBASE-PLR4 compatibility is required

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-F5-BO into a compatible QSFP port on switches, routers or other network equipment while the device is powered down or following the host vendor's hot-swapping guidelines. Connect single-mode MPO/MTP fiber patch cords or patch panels to the transceiver. Verify link status and diagnostic values via the host equipment's management interface to confirm proper operation. Ensure the connected hardware supports 40GBASE-PLR4 signaling and DDM access if remote diagnostics are required.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode MPO/MTP patch cords and maintain proper fiber cleanliness to achieve the specified reach and signal quality. Confirm software and hardware compatibility with your vendor before deployment and consider requesting a test sample for validation in your environment.
