QSFP Transceiver Module BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-PS-BO 40 Mbit/s 1310 nm

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-PS-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 40 Mbit/s data transfer over single-mode fiber at a 1310 nm wavelength. Designed to fit QSFP-compatible ports, the compact module weighs approximately 0.04 kg and is specified with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours to support continuous operation in networking environments.

Advantages

The module provides a QSFP interface for high-density installations and supports simultaneous transmit and receive optical channels via an MPO/MTP-style connection in line with common MSA practices. Built for compatibility with hardware that accepts the original matching QSFP transceiver, the product includes digital diagnostics capability for monitoring key operating parameters where supported by host equipment. Low weight and a small form factor make it suitable for space-constrained racks and systems.

Suitable for

• High-density switch and router uplinks
• Storage system and SAN interconnects
• Data center aggregation and spine links
• Optical links requiring single-mode fiber at 1310 nm

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP
• Maximum data transfer rate: 40 Mbit/s
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (recommended)
• Connector type: MPO/MTP-style optical connector
• Weight: 0.04 kg
• Mean time between failures (MTBF): 1,000,000 hours
• Digital diagnostics/monitoring supported when host hardware enables DDM/DOM

How to use

Install the module into a compatible QSFP slot on switches, routers or storage systems that support the corresponding QSFP transceiver type. Connect an MPO/MTP single-mode patch cord to the transceiver and route the other end to the matching transceiver or patch panel. If your host system supports digital diagnostics, enable the DDM/DOM feature in the device management interface to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, optical transmit/receive power and module temperature in real time. Follow your system vendor’s hot-swap and electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures when inserting or removing the module.

Recommendations

Use low-loss single-mode fiber and appropriate MPO/MTP cleaning procedures to maximize link quality. Ensure that connected hardware officially supports the QSFP transceiver variant to access full monitoring functions. For long-term reliability, operate the module within the host vendor’s specified temperature and power ranges and perform periodic monitoring through DDM/DOM where available.
