Transceiver CBO OPT-0036 QSFP 850nm multimode fiber 300m

CBO OPT-0036 QSFP 850nm multimode fiber 300m is a compact, pluggable transceiver module designed for short-range optical links in data center and enterprise network environments. Operating at a wavelength of 850 nm, this QSFP transceiver supports multimode fiber connections up to 300 meters and provides a high-density interface for switches, routers and other network equipment with QSFP ports. The module is intended to enable reliable, low-latency optical transmission for high-speed aggregation and server interconnect applications.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized QSFP form factor for easy installation and hot-swappable replacement in compatible network devices. Its 850 nm multimode operation is optimized for short-distance links, combining low power consumption and stable optical performance. Compact design reduces rack-space complexity and simplifies cable management in dense deployments. The module is suitable for staged upgrades or maintenance with minimal disruption to running equipment.

Suitable for

• Short-range server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections in data centers
• High-density aggregation links in top-of-rack and spine-leaf architectures
• Replacement or upgrade of existing QSFP multimode transceivers
• Intra-building backbone links and equipment rooms with multimode cabling

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Wavelength: 850 nm
• Fiber type: Multimode fiber (MMF)
• Maximum link distance: up to 300 meters (on appropriate MMF)
• Interface: Hot-pluggable electrical/optical QSFP connector
• Typical application: Short-range 40G/4x10G or compatible lanes depending on host equipment

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on the network device until it seats securely; no additional tools are required for insertion or removal. Connect multimode fiber patch cords with the appropriate LC or MPO-style breakout connectors as required by the host equipment. Verify port configuration and link status via the device management interface and ensure fiber endfaces are clean before connecting. Follow the host equipment’s guidelines for transceiver support and lane settings to achieve expected data rates and link stability.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, use high-quality multimode fiber cabling rated for the intended distance and maintain clean connectors. Confirm compatibility with the host device’s QSFP port and firmware, and test links after installation. Avoid exposing the module to electrostatic discharge and operate within the equipment manufacturer’s temperature and handling specifications.
