BlueOptics TRX-QSFP28-100G-CWDM4-BO network transceiver module Fiber optic 100000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics TRX-QSFP28-100G-CWDM4-BO is a QSFP28 fiber optic network transceiver module designed for 100G data transmission over single-mode fiber. Housed in a compact silver module and weighing approximately 40 g, it supports 100000 Mbit/s throughput and uses LC duplex connections with CWDM multiplexing to transmit and receive optical signals simultaneously. The module follows MSA-compliant QSFP28 specifications and implements features common to high-speed optical transceivers, including support for Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet applications and digital diagnostics monitoring where supported by host hardware.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a standardized QSFP28 interface for straightforward insertion into compatible ports and supports 100GBASE-CWDM4 optical links up to typical short-reach distances on single-mode fiber. Built to industry MSA standards, it provides optical transmit and receive channels with CWDM wavelength allocation and an LC duplex connector for bidirectional operation. When used in compatible systems, the module can provide real-time digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, output and received power, and temperature. Its compact form factor and low weight make it suitable for dense deployments where space and thermal budgets are constrained.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP28 module into a compatible QSFP28 port on your switch, router or other network device following the host vendor's hot-plug and handling instructions. Connect LC duplex single-mode patch cables between corresponding transceivers or to a CWDM-capable patch panel. Ensure the connected equipment supports 100GBASE-CWDM4 and DDM/DOM functions if monitoring is required. After insertion, verify link status and negotiated speed on the host device; perform optical power checks and, if available, read diagnostic parameters to confirm proper operation.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode LC duplex patch cords and adhere to manufacturer bend-radius and cleanliness guidelines for fiber connectors. Confirm host compatibility with QSFP28 100GBASE-CWDM4 modules before deployment, and enable DDM/DOM on supported platforms to monitor transceiver health. For best optical performance, route fibers through appropriate panels or trays and avoid excessive cable stress.
