QSFP-transceiver-module BlueOptics QSFP-100G-LR4-WDM1300-BO 100000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics QSFP-100G-LR4-WDM1300-BO is a QSFP28 fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 100 Gbit/s optical links over single-mode fiber. Housed in metal with a silver and blue finish and weighing 40 g, this module supports long-reach 100GBASE-LR4 transmission using CWDM channels and LC duplex connectivity. It implements digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time reporting of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature, and conforms to QSFP28 MSA mechanical and electrical specifications to ensure interoperability with compatible network platforms.

Advantages

The module provides high-speed 100000 Mbit/s throughput in a compact QSFP28 form factor with metal housing for thermal stability. With CWDM-based LR4 optics and LC duplex connectivity it supports long-distance single-mode fiber links up to the LR4 specification range. Built to industry MSA standards and incorporating tested optical and electronic components, it offers long MTBF performance for reduced maintenance and predictable operation. The integrated digital diagnostics simplify monitoring and troubleshooting of optical links.

How to use

Install the QSFP-100G-LR4-WDM1300-BO into a compatible QSFP28 slot on switches, routers or other supported hardware while the host device is powered and configured according to the vendor guidelines for third-party transceivers. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords to the module's optical ports ensuring correct orientation of transmit and receive fibers. Verify link status via the host device and monitor DDM parameters to confirm proper optical power levels and temperature. Follow any platform-specific instructions to enable or verify compatibility when using modules on vendor hardware.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode LC duplex patch cords and maintain clean connectors to preserve signal quality. Confirm that the target hardware supports QSFP28 LR4 modules and DDM/DOM functions. For longer service life, ensure adequate chassis airflow and avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or mechanical stress.
