BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-CP-BO network transceiver module Fiber optic 40 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-CP-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 40 Mbit/s data transfer over single-mode fiber at a wavelength of 1310 nm. The module uses an MPO/MTP connector and follows MSA QSFP mechanical and electrical standards to ensure interoperability with compatible network hardware. With a compact 40 g housing and an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, it is intended for deployment in data centers and high-performance network environments that require long-distance optical links and digital diagnostics support.

Advantages

This QSFP transceiver supports simultaneous transmit and receive optical channels and is designed for use with MPO/MTP cabling, providing a standardized interface for high-density installations. The module implements Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF-8472, enabling real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, optical transmit/receive power and temperature. Built to MSA specifications and using industry-grade components, the transceiver is intended to offer stable performance and long operational life in compatible network platforms.

Suitable for

• 40 Mbit/s Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet links
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• High-density MPO/MTP patch-panel installations in data centers
• Longer-reach single-mode fiber connections up to several kilometers

How to use

Install the module into a compatible QSFP slot on the target switch, router or storage device that supports the corresponding QSFP transceiver specification. Connect single-mode MPO/MTP patch cords to the transceiver and ensure correct polarity and fiber routing. Verify that the host device recognizes the module and, if available, enable or access DDM/DOM monitoring through the device management interface to observe real-time diagnostic values. Follow the equipment vendor’s instructions for hot-plug handling and ESD precautions during installation or removal.

Recommendations

To obtain optimal link performance, use high-quality single-mode MPO/MTP patch cords and compatible patch panels, confirm that the host hardware firmware supports third-party QSFP modules and monitor DDM parameters during commissioning. Maintain clean connector endfaces and follow ESD safety practices. For exact link budgets and maximum reach, consult fiber type specifications and system documentation.
