BlueOptics QSFP-40G-ESR4-F5-BO network transceiver module 40 Mbit/s 850 nm

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-ESR4-F5-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed optical links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 40 Mbit/s and operates at a wavelength of 850 nm over multimode fiber using an MPO/MTP connector. The module is lightweight at approximately 40 g and is manufactured to industry MSA-compliant QSFP form-factor specifications. With an advertised mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, the transceiver targets long operational life and steady performance in compatible networking equipment.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized QSFP interface compatible with systems that accept MSA-compliant QSFP transceivers. Operating at 850 nm, it supports simultaneous transmit and receive optical signals over multimode fiber and connects via an MPO/MTP connector for parallel fiber links. The transceiver includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) functionality to report supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature when supported by host hardware. Manufactured with components meeting common industry quality standards, the product is presented as suitable for continuous operation with a long MTBF.

Suitable for

• 40G multimode fiber links in data center switches and routers
• High-bandwidth server interconnects and storage systems
• Optical uplinks in aggregation and spine-leaf network architectures
• Environments requiring MPO/MTP parallel fiber connections

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP (MSA-compliant form factor)

• Operating wavelength: 850 nm
• Connector type: MPO/MTP
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber
• Weight: approximately 0.04 kg
• Digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM): supported when host hardware exposes the feature
• Typical operational reliability: MTBF approximately 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on a switch, router, storage array or other network appliance that supports MSA-compliant QSFP modules. Use an MPO/MTP multimode fiber cable to connect to a corresponding transceiver or patch panel. Ensure that the host device firmware and software support third-party QSFP modules and, if DDM/DOM monitoring is required, that the host exposes those diagnostic registers. Observe ESD precautions and follow the equipment manufacturer’s instructions for hot-plugging or powering down during installation as recommended by your hardware vendor.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with your hardware platform and current firmware before deployment. For best link performance, use quality multimode MPO/MTP patch cords and adhere to multimode fiber distance limitations. If remote monitoring of optical parameters is necessary, confirm that the host system supports DDM/DOM and check diagnostic readings after installation.
