Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics SFP-SR-MPO40-BO QSFP 150m

The BlueOptics SFP-SR-MPO40-BO QSFP 150m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for 40G multi‑mode applications with MPO/MTP interface. It supports short-range optical transmission up to 150 metres over multimode fibre and uses an 850 nm transmitter and receiver arrangement compliant with 40GBASE‑SR4 specifications. The module is housed in an aluminium casing and weighs approximately 20 grams, making it suitable for installation in switches, routers and storage systems that accept QSFP form factors and MPO connectors.

Advantages

This QSFP transceiver supports simultaneous send and receive operation via MPO/MTP connectors and follows MSA pinouts and signalling for 40GBASE‑SR4. The module provides digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) capability for monitoring supply voltage, laser bias current, optical output/input power and internal temperature when supported by the host hardware. Construction with an aluminium housing offers mechanical robustness and lightweight handling for high‑density installations.

Suitable for

• Short‑range 40G Ethernet links within data centres and server rooms
• High‑speed interconnects between switches, routers and storage arrays
• Multimode fibre backbones and MPO/MTP patching environments
• Environments requiring remote optical diagnostics and monitoring

Key specifications

• Form factor: QSFP (40GBASE‑SR4 compatible)
• Wavelength: 850 nm transmitter and receiver
• Connector type: MPO/MTP
• Maximum transmission distance: up to 150 metres on multimode fibre
• Material / colour: aluminium housing
• Weight: approx. 0.02 kg
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF‑8472 when supported by host

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP module into a compatible QSFP port following the host equipment manufacturer’s hot‑plugging and handling guidelines. Ensure the receiving device supports 40GBASE‑SR4 and MPO/MTP connectivity. Connect multimode fibre patch cords with MPO/MTP terminations, observing proper polarity and using appropriate patch panels or trunk cables. If DDM/DOM monitoring is required, enable and verify diagnostic reporting in the host system to view real‑time optical and electrical parameters.

Recommendations

Use high‑quality OM3 or OM4 multimode fibre and MPO/MTP patch cords for optimal range and performance. Verify transceiver compatibility with the specific switch or router model before deployment and follow ESD and handling precautions to protect the module and optical interfaces.
