BlueOptics QSFP-100G-LR4-LITE-BO network transceiver module Fiber optic 100000 Mbit/s QSFP28

The BlueOptics QSFP-100G-LR4-LITE-BO is a fiber optic network transceiver module for 100000 Mbit/s (100G) links. It uses a QSFP28 interface in a compact metal housing, offering a silver-coloured module that weighs approximately 0.04 kg. Designed for single-mode fiber with LC Duplex connections, the module implements 100GBASE-CWDM4 signaling for long-reach optical links and is intended for use in data centers and high-performance networking environments.

Advantages

The module supports high aggregate throughput of 100 Gbit/s over a single QSFP28 port while maintaining a small form factor and metal housing for mechanical durability and thermal stability. It is built to MSA-compatible QSFP28 mechanical and electrical specifications and provides support for standard optical monitoring functions, enabling remote diagnostics of parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias, optical transmit/receive power and temperature when used with compatible host hardware. The lightweight silver housing facilitates straightforward installation and handling in dense rack environments.

How to use

Insert the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or storage device until it latches. Connect single-mode LC Duplex patch cords to the transceiver ensuring correct transmit/receive orientation. Confirm that the host device firmware and software support the module and, if available, enable Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) in the host to monitor optical and environmental parameters. Follow the equipment manufacturer's hot-plug and electrostatic discharge precautions during installation and removal.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use single-mode fiber cabling certified for CWDM4 links and maintain clean LC connectors. Verify host compatibility and firmware support before deployment, and monitor DDM parameters to detect signal degradation or component issues early. Store spare modules in anti-static packaging and avoid mechanical shock or exposure to moisture.
