Transceiver CBO AFCT-88EEDZ Fiber Optic QSFP 25G

BlueOptics Transceiver CBO AFCT-88EEDZ Fiber Optic QSFP 25G is a compact optical module designed to provide 25 gigabit per second connectivity in QSFP form factor systems. It supports single-mode fiber links for high-speed data transmission and is intended for use in switches, routers and other networking equipment that accept QSFP modules. The module enables straightforward upgrade or expansion of 25G links in data center racks, enterprise networks and telecom environments while maintaining interoperability with standard QSFP ports.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a small QSFP package that conserves slot space and supports 25G line rates for efficient bandwidth delivery. It is built for optical performance and compatibility with standard QSFP interfaces, enabling plug-and-play replacement or addition of 25G links. Thermal and electrical characteristics are matched to common networking hardware designs to ensure stable operation under typical network loads.

Suitable for

• Upgrading 10G links to 25G in data center top-of-rack switches
• Expanding 25G connectivity between aggregation switches and routers
• Connecting servers and storage with high-bandwidth optical links
• Telecom access and metro networks requiring 25G optical interfaces

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Nominal data rate: 25 Gbps
• Medium: fiber optic (single-mode)
• Optical interface: LC duplex or multiplexed QSFP-compatible connector (field dependent)
• Typical operational temperature range compatible with standard networking environments
• Low-profile compact housing designed for hot-pluggable installation

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on your switch or router while the device is powered according to the host hardware instructions. Connect appropriate single-mode fiber patch cords or MPO/LC assemblies as required by the module version and the network design. Verify link negotiation and status via the host device management interface and monitor optical parameters if supported. For safe handling, avoid touching the fiber connector endfaces and keep protective caps until connection.

Recommendations

Use certified single-mode fiber and manufacturer-recommended patch cords to ensure signal quality. Confirm host device compatibility with QSFP 25G modules and apply any vendor firmware or configuration settings for optimal performance. Perform routine checks of optical power and link status to detect degradation early.
