Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 740-033777-BO XFP LC Aluminium 20g

The BlueOptics 740-033777-BO XFP LC Aluminium 20g is a fiber optic XFP transceiver module designed for high-speed short-range multimode connections. It uses an XFP interface with an LC duplex optical connector and is housed in an aluminium shell. Weighing approximately 20 g, the module is intended for installation in network equipment that accepts XFP transceivers and supports 10 Gbit/s optical links over multimode fiber.

Advantages

The aluminium housing provides durable mechanical protection and helps dissipate heat during continuous operation. The XFP interface and LC connector follow common MSA conventions for optical transceivers, enabling straightforward integration with compatible switches, routers and other network devices. The compact, lightweight design simplifies handling and installation in populated chassis while maintaining stable optical performance for short-range multimode links.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet short-range multimode fiber connections
• High-speed uplinks between switches and aggregation points
• Replacement or expansion modules in XFP-capable network equipment

Key specifications

• Interface type: XFP optical transceiver
• Connector: LC duplex
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Application: multimode fiber short-range optical links (designed for 10 Gbit/s class use)

How to use

Install the transceiver into an XFP-compatible port on the host device according to the device manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the LC duplex fiber patch cable is clean and correctly oriented before connecting. After insertion, verify link/activity LEDs and host system diagnostics to confirm successful negotiation of the 10 Gbit/s optical link. If the host supports digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM), use the system management interface to monitor optical parameters where available.

Recommendations

Use certified multimode LC patch cables and keep optical endfaces clean. Verify host device compatibility with XFP modules and enable any necessary software or firmware settings for third-party transceivers. Store spare modules in anti-static packaging and avoid mechanical stress to the LC connectors to maintain link quality.
