Network transceiver module BlueOptics QSFP28 BO28L13602DS 100GBASE-FR 1310nm

The BlueOptics QSFP28 BO28L13602DS 100GBASE-FR transceiver module operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm and is designed for QSFP28 interfaces to deliver 100 Gbit/s over single-mode fiber for long-reach optical links. It supports 100GBASE-FR protocol for use in high-capacity networks and is supplied as a hot-pluggable module compatible with equipment that accepts QSFP28 form-factor transceivers.

Advantages

This module provides a 100 Gbit/s data rate over single-mode fiber at 1310 nm, enabling long-reach connectivity suitable for data center uplinks and carrier networks. The QSFP28 form factor offers hot-pluggable installation for easy maintenance and rapid replacement without poweredown procedures. Designed for standardized 100GBASE-FR operation, the transceiver facilitates interoperable deployment in heterogeneous network environments.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks and spine-leaf aggregation
• Metro and carrier transport links requiring long-reach 100G
• High-capacity interconnects between switches and routers
• Network segments using single-mode fiber infrastructure

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on network equipment following the vendor's hot-swap procedures. Connect single-mode fiber patch cords with appropriate transceiver-compatible connectors to the module's optical interface, ensure proper link configuration on the connected devices (speed, duplex and protocol settings where applicable), and verify optical power and link status using network management or diagnostic tools. Observe ESD precautions and handle the module by its edges; keep protective caps on fiber ports until connection.

Recommendations

Use this module in single-mode fiber links designed for 1310 nm operation and ensure transceiver compatibility with host equipment firmware and optical power budget requirements. For reliable long-reach operation, confirm connector cleanliness, appropriate fiber type, and that link budgets meet attenuation and dispersion parameters specified by network design.
