Optical Transceiver BlueOptics QSFP28 100G 850nm model 02314BDE for short-range multimode links

BlueOptics QSFP28 100G 850nm model 02314BDE is a compact optical transceiver designed for short-range multimode fiber links. Operating at a wavelength of 850 nm and using the QSFP28 form factor, this transceiver enables 100 Gigabit Ethernet or InfiniBand connections in high-density environments. The module is intended for short-reach multimode transmission scenarios commonly found in data center uplinks, switch-to-switch links and aggregation layers, providing a plug-in solution for QSFP28 ports.

Advantages

The transceiver delivers 100 Gbps bandwidth in a QSFP28 compact form factor compatible with standard QSFP28 sockets. Its 850 nm wavelength is optimized for multimode fiber, enabling reliable short-reach transmission with low latency. The module supports high-density deployment and straightforward installation, allowing replacement or upgrades in systems that accept QSFP28 optical modules. Passive compatibility with multimode fiber reduces the need for additional signal conversion equipment.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the module into a QSFP28-compliant port on a switch, router or network adapter while the host device is powered according to the vendor's hot-plug guidelines. Connect the multimode fiber cables to the transceiver's optical interface, ensuring correct fiber type and connector compatibility. Verify link status and speed through the network device management interface and confirm that optics are recognized and operating at 100 Gbps. If necessary, check transceiver and switch firmware or compatibility lists for confirmed interoperability.

Recommendations

Use OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber for optimal short-reach performance at 850 nm, maintain proper fiber cleanliness and follow ESD handling procedures when installing or removing the transceiver. Confirm port compatibility with QSFP28 modules and consult system documentation for any vendor-specific configuration required to enable third-party optics.
