Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics EQPT404LR4LCL100-BO 40000 Mbit/s QSFP

The BlueOptics EQPT404LR4LCL100-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 40 Gbit/s class network links. Designed to fit QSFP-capable switches and routers, this compact silver module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 40000 Mbit/s and is intended for use in high-density, high-throughput environments. With a lightweight construction of approximately 40 g and a reported MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, the module offers a balance of performance and reliability for optical connectivity in data centers and enterprise networks.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a QSFP interface that enables multi-channel 40 Gbit/s connectivity while occupying a single port on supporting equipment. Its compact form factor and low weight simplify installation in dense patch panels and high-port-count line cards. The long mean time between failures contributes to predictable operation and reduced maintenance intervals. The silver housing offers standard mechanical compatibility and thermal characteristics expected from factory-standard optical modules.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP slot on a switch, router or transceiver cage while the host device is powered down or following the vendor's hot-plug procedure. Ensure the transceiver is clean and free of dust before mating fiber connectors; use appropriate dust caps and fiber cleaning tools. After seating the module, connect multimode or singlemode fiber patch cords and verify link status through the host device's port indicators and management interface. Monitor link performance and alarms via the network management system as required.

Recommendations

Use factory-approved fiber types and connector standards for the intended LR4-style links, follow ESD-safe handling procedures, and schedule regular inspection of fiber endfaces to maintain optimal optical performance and longevity.
