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

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-PLR4-ZY-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for single-mode fiber links with a nominal wavelength of 1310 nm and a maximum data transfer rate of 40 Mbit/s. The module conforms to common QSFP form-factor and MSA-compatible mechanical and electrical specifications, is compact and lightweight (0.04 kg), and is rated with an MTBF of 1,000,000 hours for continuous networking use.

Advantages

This QSFP transceiver provides a standardized electrical and mechanical interface for 40 Mbit/s single-mode optical links, enabling interoperability with equipment that supports the QSFP form factor. The module’s 1310 nm Tx/Rx optics and MPO/MTP-capable connectivity allow bidirectional optical transmission over single-mode fiber. Designed and tested to align with MSA guidelines and industrial standards, it offers predictable functional behaviour and long operating life suitable for stable network deployments.

Suitable for

• 40 Mbit/s single-mode fiber uplinks and interconnects
• Network switches and routers with QSFP ports supporting compatible modules
• Storage systems and aggregation equipment requiring QSFP optical interfaces
• Environments where long-term availability and MTBF are important

• Wavelength: 1310 nm (Tx and Rx)
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber
• Connector compatibility: MPO/MTP-style optical connections
• Weight: 0.04 kg
• Mean time between failures (MTBF): 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the transceiver into a compatible QSFP slot on the host device following the device manufacturer’s hot-plug and electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures. Use single-mode fiber patch cords with MPO/MTP connectors or appropriate breakout assemblies to connect the module to the remote transceiver or patch panel. Verify link status and negotiated parameters on the host system and ensure the connected hardware supports the module’s optics and any required diagnostic features before placing the link into production.

Recommendations

Ensure the host equipment explicitly supports QSFP optics with 1310 nm single-mode interfaces and that any digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) features you intend to use are supported by the system firmware. Use quality single-mode MPO/MTP patch cords and maintain clean fiber endfaces to achieve optimal signal quality and range.
