Network transceiver module BlueOptics JH233A-BO QSFP fiber optic 40000 Mbit/s MTP/MPO 300 m

BlueOptics JH233A-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 40 Gbit/s links. It uses an MTP/MPO multimode fiber connector and supports link distances up to 300 m, making it suitable for short-range aggregation and high-speed interconnects in data centers and enterprise network equipment. The module has an aluminium-coloured housing, is lightweight (approx. 40 g) and is supplied individually for easy replacement or upgrade of existing QSFP ports.

Advantages

The BlueOptics JH233A-BO offers 40G data rate capability with an MTP/MPO interface compliant with common MSA specifications, enabling interoperability with a wide range of hardware platforms that accept QSFP modules. Built with industry-grade optical and electronic components, the module delivers stable optical performance for multimode fiber applications and includes diagnostic monitoring support where the host system provides DDM/DOM functionality. Its compact QSFP form factor simplifies installation, and the module’s compatibility-focused design permits cost-effective replacement of vendor-branded transceivers.

• Typical weight: 0.04 kg
• Housing colour: Aluminium

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics JH233A-BO QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on your switch, router or other network device, ensuring the module is fully seated and the device recognizes the transceiver. Connect an MTP/MPO multimode fiber patch cable to the module and route the cable to the corresponding transceiver or patch panel on the other end. Verify link status and speed on the host device; if DDM/DOM is supported, use the host management interface to monitor optical parameters such as received power and temperature. Follow the host vendor’s guidance for hot-plugging and module handling to avoid ESD or damage.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode MTP/MPO patch cords and, where applicable, polarity-correct patch panels to achieve optimal link performance up to 300 m. Ensure the host device firmware supports third-party QSFP modules and DDM/DOM if you require diagnostic monitoring. Handle the module with appropriate ESD precautions and avoid bending fiber beyond recommended radii to preserve signal integrity.
