QSFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics QSFP-40G-IR-BO 40 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-IR-BO is a QSFP-form-factor fiber optic transceiver module designed for network applications requiring up to 40 Mbit/s optical data transfer. The module is housed in metal, uses a QSFP interface and operates at an input voltage of 3.3 V. With a stated mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours and a compact weight of 0.04 kg, the product is intended for insertion into compatible networking equipment that accepts QSFP transceivers.

Advantages

This BlueOptics transceiver offers a standardized QSFP interface in a robust metal housing and a long MTBF for sustained operation. The module supports optical signalling via single-mode links when used with appropriate fiber cabling and compatible QSFP-capable hardware. Its compact design and standard voltage requirement simplify deployment in systems that accept QSFP modules.

Suitable for

• High-speed network links within switches and routers that accept QSFP transceivers
• Interconnects between storage systems and network devices supporting QSFP
• Optical uplinks in network racks and data center patch panels when used with compatible fiber cabling

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP
• Maximum data transfer rate: 40 Mbit/s
• Operating input voltage: 3.3 V
• Housing: metal
• Weight: 0.04 kg
• Mean time between failures (MTBF): 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the module into a compatible QSFP slot on networking equipment, observing the equipment manufacturer's insertion and removal instructions. Connect appropriate single-mode fiber using LC duplex connectors or compatible patch cords and ensure the host device is configured for the intended link speed and protocol. Verify link status and any available diagnostics via the host device interface after installation.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode fiber patch cords and ensure the host hardware supports the QSFP form factor and required data rates. Confirm firmware or software compatibility with the transceiver to enable any available diagnostic functions. Handle the module carefully to avoid contamination of optical interfaces and store unused transceivers in protective packaging.
