Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics ACM761-10000S-BO QSFP28 MTP/MPO

The BlueOptics ACM761-10000S-BO QSFP28 MTP/MPO fiber optic transceiver module is a 100GBASE-SR4 compatible QSFP28 unit designed for high-density, short-range multimode fiber links. It supports parallel optical transmission with an MTP/MPO connector and is compatible with Netgear hardware that supports the original ACM761-10000S. The module is lightweight (0.04 kg) and has an aluminium housing, providing a compact and robust option for upgrading or expanding 100 Gbps Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet or SDH/SONET links over multimode fiber.

Advantages

The BlueOptics QSFP28 transceiver follows MSA standards and provides interoperable performance for 100GBASE-SR4 applications using multimode fiber and an MPO/MTP interface. It integrates standardized transmit and receive optics operating at 850 nm and supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time reporting of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature where the host hardware exposes these functions. Built from quality optical components, the module is intended for high availability and long operational life in data center and enterprise network environments.

Suitable for

• 100 Gbps short-reach links within data centers (up to typical multimode distances)
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems that accept QSFP28 MPO/MTP transceivers
• High-speed Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet or SDH/SONET applications

How to use

Install the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 slot on the host device following the manufacturer's hot-swap and electrostatic discharge (ESD) handling guidelines. Connect a compatible MPO/MTP multimode fiber patch cord to the module and ensure proper polarity and fiber type match. Confirm that the host device firmware and driver settings allow third-party transceivers if required. When DDM/DOM is available on the host, monitor the module's diagnostic parameters via the management interface to verify link health and optical levels.

Recommendations

Use OM3/OM4 multimode fiber for optimal reach and performance, keep MPO/MTP connectors clean and free from dust, and verify host compatibility and firmware settings before deployment. For critical links, perform link validation and monitor DDM/DOM values regularly to detect degradation early.
