QSFP-transceiver BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-20-GM-BO 40000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-20-GM-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 40 Gbit/s links in data center and enterprise networks. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 40000 Mbit/s and LC connectors, this compact module enables long-reach optical connections up to 20,000 m while maintaining compatibility with QSFP interfaces. The transceiver is lightweight (0.04 kg) and intended for integration into switches, routers and media converters that accept QSFP modules.

Advantages

The module provides high-bandwidth 40 Gbit/s transmission over single-mode fiber with LR4 wavelengths, allowing efficient consolidation of traffic and reduced port count. Its QSFP form factor supports hot-swappable installation and standardized interoperability. With LC connectors and a long maximum transfer distance, the transceiver is suitable for extended links between equipment racks or buildings. The lightweight design simplifies handling and installation in dense networking environments.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-20-GM-BO into a compatible QSFP port on a switch, router or media converter following the equipment manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the module is fully seated and locked, then connect LC-terminated single-mode fiber cables to the module's LC connectors. Verify link status through the host device and perform any required configuration for 40 Gbit/s operation. Handle the transceiver by its edges and keep dust caps in place when not connected.

Recommendations

Use single-mode fiber rated for long-reach LR4 deployments and maintain proper fiber cleanliness to ensure optimal performance. Confirm host device compatibility with 40 G QSFP LR4 modules and follow ESD precautions during installation and removal.
