QSFP Transceiver Module BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-PS-BO 40 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-PS-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed optical links. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 40 Mbit/s, uses a QSFP interface in a metal housing and operates at an input voltage of 3.3 V. The module is intended for single-mode fiber connections with LC Duplex termination and is specified with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, reflecting design emphasis on reliability for network applications.

Advantages

The module provides a standardized QSFP form factor for compact high-density deployments and is manufactured to meet MSA mechanical and electrical specifications. Its metal housing supports thermal stability and shielding. With a rated MTBF of 1,000,000 hours and component selection aimed at long operational life, the transceiver is suitable for continuous operation in core or aggregation network equipment. The integrated LC Duplex optical interface enables simultaneous transmit and receive over separate fibers.

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible QSFP slot on network equipment following the equipment manufacturer’s hot‑swap and electrostatic discharge (ESD) guidelines. Connect single‑mode LC Duplex fiber patch cords to the transceiver’s LC interfaces, ensuring correct orientation of transmit and receive fibers. Confirm that the host device supports the transceiver’s link parameters and that required features such as Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) are enabled if supported by the hardware.

Recommendations

Handle the module by its edges, keep optical connectors capped when not in use, and verify fiber polarity and connector cleanliness prior to installation. To achieve the intended reliability, use the transceiver within the host equipment’s recommended environmental and electrical limits and maintain proper fiber routing to avoid stress on connectors.
