Network transceiver module BlueOptics TOM-40G-Q-LRL-BO 40000 Mbit/s QSFP

The BlueOptics TOM-40G-Q-LRL-BO 40000 Mbit/s QSFP is a compact fiber optic transceiver module intended for high-speed network links. Housed in a metal casing with a silver finish and weighing 20 g, this QSFP module supports a maximum data transfer rate of 40 Gbit/s and is designed for insertion into compatible QSFP ports in switches, routers and line cards. Its form factor and thermal characteristics make it suitable for dense installations where space and reliability are important.

Advantages

The module’s QSFP interface provides four-lane high-bandwidth connectivity in a single hot-pluggable package. A metal housing ensures mechanical robustness and improved heat dissipation, while the lightweight design contributes negligible additional load on equipment. The 40 Gbit/s capability supports aggregation and backbone links in data center and enterprise networks, enabling efficient use of fiber infrastructure.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP module into a compatible QSFP slot following your equipment manufacturer’s hot-plug procedures. Ensure the transceiver and host device support 40 Gbit/s operation and compatible fiber type and connector standards. After insertion, verify link status using the switch or router management interface and perform any required port configuration such as speed, MTU and LACP settings. When removing the module, follow proper ESD precautions and power-down or disable the port if recommended by the equipment vendor.

Recommendations

Use certified fiber patch cords and follow recommended optical power budgets and connector cleanliness procedures. For high-density deployments, monitor module temperature and airflow to maintain reliable performance. Replace modules with matched specifications to ensure consistent link behavior.
