Fiber optic transceiver BlueOptics 60171-BO QSFP28 25000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 60171-BO QSFP28 fiber optic transceiver is designed for high-speed network links requiring up to 25,000 Mbit/s throughput. Housed in a durable silver metal casing and weighing approximately 20 g, this QSFP28 module follows MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical specifications to ensure interoperability with compatible networking equipment. With an MTBF rating of 1,000,000 hours, the transceiver is intended for continuous operation in data center, campus and enterprise environments where stable optical connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module offers a compact QSFP28 interface that supports high-density deployment and easy hot-plug installation. Its metal housing provides mechanical robustness and thermal conduction suitable for typical rack-mounted hardware. Compatibility with common 25G optical protocols and adherence to MSA standards help ensure broad interoperability with switches, routers and storage systems that support QSFP28 optics. The lightweight form factor and standard connector types simplify integration into existing fibre infrastructure.

Suitable for

• 25G Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• High-speed server or storage interconnects in data centers
• Short-reach multimode fibre links in campus networks (up to the supported distance of the chosen optical standard)
• Replacement or expansion of MSA-compliant QSFP28 ports in networking hardware

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP28
• Maximum data transfer rate: 25,000 Mbit/s
• Housing: metal, silver colour
• Weight: ~0.02 kg (20 g)
• Mean time between failures (MTBF): 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port following the host device manufacturer’s guidance for hot-plugging. Ensure that the target hardware supports the required optical protocol and QSFP28 MSA interoperability. Connect appropriate multimode fiber patch cords with compatible connectors and observe correct polarity. After insertion and cable connection, verify link status and speed on the host device and confirm that any required digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) functions are supported by the equipment if remote diagnostics are needed.

Recommendations

Use the transceiver with MSA-compliant QSFP28 ports and high-quality multimode fiber and patch cords. Avoid exceeding the environmental and mechanical limits specified by your host hardware, and perform initial testing of a sample module in the target system to confirm compatibility and link performance.
