CBO QSFP28 100G 850nm transceiver compatible with Juniper (MPN 740-073859-BO)

The CBO QSFP28 100G 850nm transceiver compatible with Juniper is a multimode short-range optical module designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet links. Operating at an 850 nm wavelength, this QSFP28 form-factor transceiver supports high-bandwidth connectivity between switches, routers and servers in data center and enterprise network environments. The plug-and-play design enables straightforward insertion into compatible QSFP28 ports and is intended to maintain interoperability with Juniper network equipment.

Advantages

This transceiver provides a compact QSFP28 form factor that consolidates four lanes of 25 Gbps signaling to deliver 100 Gbps total throughput while minimizing port density. The 850 nm VCSEL-based optics are optimized for multimode fiber and short-reach links, offering reliable performance for intra-data-center connections. Designed to be compatible with Juniper hardware, the module simplifies upgrades and replacements by supporting standard electrical and optical interfaces associated with 100 Gigabit Ethernet.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 100 Gigabit Ethernet links within data centers
• High-throughput connections between top-of-rack and spine switches
• Server-to-switch aggregation over multimode fiber
• Network equipment upgrades and port density consolidation

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP28
• Data rate: 100 Gbps (aggregate)
• Wavelength: 850 nm
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Reach: short-range, optimized for intra-rack and intra-row links
• Optical interface: MPO/MTP connector compatible
• Electrical interface: 4×25 Gbps lanes

How to use

Before installation, verify that the target device supports QSFP28 modules and that multimode fiber cabling is in place. Power down or follow hot-swap safety guidelines for your Juniper-compatible device, then align and insert the transceiver into a QSFP28 port until it seats securely. Connect the MPO/MTP multimode fiber cable between transceiver ports as required. After insertion, confirm link status and interface configuration in the network device management console; the module is intended for plug-and-play operation with standard 100G Ethernet settings.

Recommendations

Use OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber for best short-range performance, maintain clean fiber connectors to avoid signal loss, and observe manufacturer-recommended operating temperature and handling practices to ensure reliable operation in data center environments.
