Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO QSFP28-100G-SR4 100Gbps

The BlueOptics Fiber Optic Transceiver CBO QSFP28-100G-SR4 100Gbps is a QSFP28-form-factor module engineered for short-reach multimode fiber connections. Supporting a 100Gbps aggregated data rate across four parallel channels, the transceiver is intended for data center and aggregation environments where high density and low-latency links are required. The compact QSFP28 package accommodates four independent lanes of 25Gbps each and integrates with compatible QSFP28 ports to provide straightforward connectivity for switching and server equipment.

Advantages

This transceiver offers high-density 100Gbps connectivity in a compact QSFP28 module designed for short-reach multimode applications. It reduces cabling footprint by combining four channels in one module and supports hot-pluggable installation for minimal disruption during deployment or replacement. The product is suitable for environments requiring predictable multimode performance and easy integration with standard QSFP28 ports.

Suitable for

• Short-reach multimode fiber links in data centers
• Top-of-rack and spine-leaf switching architectures
• Aggregation links between switches and routers
• High-density server connections and blade systems

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP28, four lanes in a single module
• Data rate: 100Gbps aggregate (4 × 25Gbps lanes)
• Optical type: short-reach multimode fiber operation
• Connector type: MPO/MTP-compatible parallel fiber interface
• Hot-pluggable design for tool-free insertion and removal
• Typical use: data center and aggregation deployments

How to use

Insert the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router, or server. Use MPO/MTP multimode fiber patch cords to connect the module to corresponding optical equipment or patch panels, ensuring correct fiber polarity and polarity-correct patching. Verify link status and speed through the host device management interface and follow standard fiber-handling precautions to avoid contamination of optical interfaces.

Recommendations

Inspect and clean fiber connectors before mating, use compatible MMF types (OM3/OM4) for expected reach and performance, and operate the module within the host equipment’s specified temperature and power limits. For best results in high-density racks, plan fiber routing to minimize bend radius and maintain clear access for hot-plug replacement.
