Network transceiver module BlueOptics QSFP28 Transceiver 407-BCIG 100 Gigabit Singlemode

BlueOptics QSFP28 Transceiver 407-BCIG 100 Gigabit Singlemode is a compact optical module designed to provide 100 Gb/s connectivity over singlemode fibre. Compatible with QSFP28 ports, this transceiver supports high-bandwidth links used in data centres and carrier networks. It is intended for installations that require long-reach optical transmission with predictable performance and interoperable form factor.

Advantages

The module offers a standard QSFP28 footprint that facilitates hot-pluggable deployment in compatible switches and routers. It supports singlemode fibre for extended link distances, enabling scalable uplinks and aggregation paths. Its design emphasises stable, high-speed transmission and interoperability with equipment that accepts QSFP28 optics, while keeping power consumption and thermal output appropriate for dense rack environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or line card while the host device is powered according to the vendor’s guidance for hot-pluggable optics. Connect the singlemode fibre patch cable to the module’s optical interface, observing correct connector orientation and cleanliness to ensure optimal signal quality. Verify link status and negotiated speed through the host device management interface and check that transmit and receive channels are aligned for correct operation.

Recommendations

Use certified singlemode fibre cabling and clean connectors before insertion to minimise signal loss. Confirm compatibility with the host equipment’s supported QSFP28 optics list and apply proper handling to avoid electrostatic discharge or mechanical damage. For long-distance links, validate optical budgets and dispersion budgets according to network design.
