Fiber optic transceiver BlueOptics 02311GBW 100000 Mbit/s QSFP28 850 nm

The BlueOptics 02311GBW is a fiber optic transceiver designed for high-speed network links. With a QSFP28 interface and support for data rates up to 100000 Mbit/s, this module operates at an 850 nm wavelength and is intended for short-reach multimode fiber connections in data centers and enterprise environments. The compact QSFP28 form factor allows integration into compatible switches, routers and optical equipment to enable aggregated 100 Gbit/s lanes or breakout configurations.

Advantages

This transceiver provides a standardized QSFP28 connector and supports 100000 Mbit/s throughput for demanding workloads. The 850 nm wavelength is suitable for multimode fibers, offering predictable attenuation characteristics for short-distance links. Its hot-pluggable QSFP28 format simplifies installation and replacement without powering down host equipment, supporting operational continuity in active networks.

Suitable for

• 100 Gbit/s uplinks and switch-to-switch connections in data centers
• Short-reach multimode fiber links within racks and across adjacent rooms
• High-density aggregation and breakout configurations using QSFP28 ports

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP28
• Maximum data transfer rate: 100000 Mbit/s
• Wavelength: 850 nm
• Form factor: QSFP28 hot-pluggable module
• Application: short-reach multimode fiber links

How to use

Install the module into a compatible QSFP28 slot on your switch or router, ensuring the host device supports 100 Gbit/s QSFP28 transceivers and multimode fiber optics. Connect suitable multimode fiber patch cables with matching connectors to the transceiver ports and verify link status via the host device interface. For breakout use, configure the host to support lane splitting as required and attach appropriate breakout cables or modules. Follow the host equipment manufacturer’s procedures for safe hot-plugging and handling of optical modules.

Recommendations

Use OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber for optimal short-reach performance at 850 nm, maintain clean connector endfaces to prevent loss or damage, and confirm compatibility with your network hardware before deployment to ensure expected throughput and link stability.
