BlueOptics 40G-QSFP-SR4-1-BO network transceiver module 40 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics 40G-QSFP-SR4-1-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module for short-range multimode links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 40 Mbit/s and operates at an 850 nm wavelength. The module has a metal housing for mechanical durability, a compact QSFP interface for hot-pluggable connectivity, an input voltage of 3.3 V and a lightweight design of approximately 20 g. The product is intended for integration into compatible networking hardware that accepts QSFP form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized QSFP interface and MSA-compliant form factor to maintain interoperability with systems that support QSFP modules. A metal housing provides physical protection and thermal conduction. With an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, the module is designed for extended operational life. The 850 nm optical wavelength and MPO/MTP-style multimode connectivity support established short-range optical links.

Suitable for

• Short-range multimode fiber links in data centers and server rooms
• High-density switch and router ports requiring QSFP modules
• Replacement or expansion of existing QSFP-supported network equipment

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 40G-QSFP-SR4-1-BO into a compatible QSFP slot while the host device is powered down or according to the host’s hot-plug procedures. Use appropriate multimode MPO/MTP patch cords and terminated fiber panels to connect the transceiver to the link partner. Ensure the host device supports the specified wavelength and QSFP form factor. Configure the network interface on the host to match the desired protocol and data rate. Observe ESD-safe handling and avoid touching optical interfaces to prevent contamination.

Recommendations

To achieve reliable short-range performance, use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber and quality MPO/MTP patch cords, keep optical endfaces clean, and verify that the network hardware supports DDM/DOM if diagnostic monitoring is required.
