Fiber optic transceiver BlueOptics 10401 100000 Mbit/s QSFP28 850 nm

The BlueOptics 10401 is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed short-range links. With a QSFP28 interface and an 850 nm operating wavelength, the module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 100000 Mbit/s. It is designed for use in data center and enterprise network environments where compact form factor and multi-lane throughput are required.

Advantages

The QSFP28 interface provides a compact, multi-lane connection that supports high aggregate bandwidth while conserving slot space in network equipment. Operation at 850 nm enables cost-effective short-range optical transmission over multimode fiber. The module's rated maximum data transfer rate of 100000 Mbit/s meets common requirements for 100 Gigabit Ethernet links, offering low latency and predictable performance for high-density switching and server interconnects.

Suitable for

• Short-range 100 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch uplinks
• High-bandwidth aggregation and leaf-spine architectures
• Multimode fiber links within racks or between adjacent equipment rooms

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP28
• Maximum data transfer rate: 100000 Mbit/s
• Operating wavelength: 850 nm
• Form factor: QSFP28 transceiver module
• Intended reach: short-range multimode fiber

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on network switches, routers or network interface cards following the equipment manufacturer's hot-swap procedures. Connect appropriate multimode fiber patch cables with matching connectors and ensure proper polarity. Verify link status and negotiate data rates using the host device management interface. Monitor temperature and optical link diagnostics where supported to ensure stable operation.

Recommendations

Use multimode fiber (OM3/OM4) for best short-range performance and maintain clean fiber connectors to prevent signal loss. Confirm compatibility with the host device's supported transceiver list and ensure firmware or driver updates are applied when required. Avoid exposing the module to excessive mechanical stress or temperatures outside the operating range specified by the network equipment manufacturer.
