Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 02-SSC-0381-BO 40000 Mbit/s QSFP

The BlueOptics 02-SSC-0381-BO is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed data transmission with a QSFP interface and a maximum data transfer rate of 40000 Mbit/s. The module operates at an 850 nm wavelength, is intended for multi-mode fiber applications, and is supplied in a silver and white housing that weighs approximately 20 g. With a high mean time between failures (MTBF) rating, this transceiver is suitable for dense networking environments that require compact, QSFP-form-factor optics for short-reach 40G links.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a QSFP interface that supports up to 40 Gbit/s aggregated throughput while maintaining a compact footprint. Its operation at 850 nm is optimized for multi-mode fiber systems and short-reach connections. Built to industry MSA form-factor standards, the module provides reliable optical transmission and a long operational lifetime as indicated by its high MTBF value. Lightweight and color-coded in white and silver, the unit is easy to identify and install in compatible QSFP ports.

Suitable for

• 40 Gigabit Ethernet links over multi-mode fiber
• High-density switch and router uplinks
• Short-reach data center interconnects and aggregation

How to use

Install the module by inserting it into a compatible QSFP port on a switch, router or other network device while following the host device manufacturer’s hot-plug and ESD handling instructions. Connect the transceiver to a multi-mode MPO/MTP patch cable or patch panel configured for 40G SR4 links and ensure correct polarity and fiber mapping. Verify link status through the host device management interface and, if available, enable and read digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) information to check supply voltage, optical power and temperature parameters.

Recommendations

For optimal performance use high-quality multi-mode fiber patch cords and maintain clean connector endfaces. Confirm that the target hardware supports this QSFP module and, where applicable, that the device firmware permits third-party transceivers. Use DDM/DOM monitoring when supported to simplify fault finding and preventive maintenance.
