Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics OC40-SR4-OPT-1-BO QSFP 150m

The BlueOptics OC40-SR4-OPT-1-BO QSFP 150m is a 40GBASE-SR4 fiber optic transceiver module designed for short-range multimode fiber links up to 150 metres. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 grams, this QSFP module provides MPO/MTP connectivity and operates with 850 nm transmit and receive wavelengths. It supports common high-speed protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over multimode fiber and is built to MSA industry standards for form factor and interoperability.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP module offers standardized QSFP interface compatibility and MPO/MTP connection for simultaneous multi‑lane optical transmission. The aluminium housing provides a lightweight yet durable enclosure, and the module is manufactured to MSA specifications to maximize interoperability with switches, routers and storage systems that support 40GBASE‑SR4. Built-in digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) support real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, output and input power and temperature when the host hardware exposes these features.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics OC40-SR4-OPT-1-BO by plugging the QSFP module into a compatible QSFP port on a switch, router or storage device that supports 40GBASE‑SR4. Connect the MPO/MTP multimode fibre patch cord between transceivers or to a patch panel, ensuring correct polarity and trunk/adapter orientation. Verify link state and, if available, use the host system’s management interface to read digital diagnostic values for optical power and temperature. Follow the host vendor’s guidelines for hot‑plug insertion and removal to avoid port damage.

Recommendations

Use factory‑tested multimode fibre patch cords and MPO/MTP trunk assemblies rated for OM3/OM4 where required to achieve the specified 150 m reach. Confirm that the target hardware supports 40GBASE‑SR4 and DDM/DOM if monitoring is needed. For best long‑term reliability, avoid excessive bending of fibre cables and operate the module within the device manufacturer’s specified temperature and power limits.
