Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics Q7F11A-BO QSFP MTP/MPO

The BlueOptics Q7F11A-BO QSFP MTP/MPO fiber optic transceiver module is a 40GBASE-SR4 compatible solution designed for high-speed multimode fiber links. Constructed with an aluminium housing and a compact form factor (approx. 20 g), the module provides 40 Gbit/s aggregate throughput using an MPO/MTP connector and supports transmission distances typical for 850 nm multimode links. The transceiver follows MSA-defined QSFP form-factor conventions and is intended for use in network switches, routers, storage systems and other hardware accepting QSFP 40G optics.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP module provides a standardized MPO/MTP interface for multi-fiber connectivity and is compatible with systems that accept 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP optics. The aluminium housing offers mechanical protection while keeping the unit lightweight for easy handling and installation. The design supports simultaneous transmit and receive channels across the MPO/MTP connector and includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) functionality when supported by host hardware, enabling real-time monitoring of optical power, bias current, module temperature and supply voltage.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on the target switch, router or storage device following the vendor’s hot-plug instructions. Connect an MPO/MTP multimode fiber patch cord or trunk to the module’s MPO/MTP connector, ensuring correct polarity and fiber type (OM3/OM4 recommended for 40GBASE-SR4 links). Configure the host interface according to the equipment vendor’s guidelines to enable 40G operation and, if required, enable DDM/DOM monitoring in the management software to read real-time diagnostic values.

Recommendations

Verify host compatibility with 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP optics and use certified MPO/MTP patch cords and structured cabling to ensure reliable performance. Maintain clean connector end-faces, follow manufacturer ESD precautions during handling and confirm that the receiving equipment supports DDM/DOM to access diagnostic data. For optimal reach and performance, use appropriate multimode fiber (OM3/OM4) and avoid bends or stress on fiber runs.
