QSFP28 Transceiver Module BlueOptics 321-2132-BO 100000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 321-2132-BO is a QSFP28 transceiver module designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet links. Delivering a maximum data transfer rate of 100000 Mbit/s and supporting optical links up to 10000 m, this silver-coloured module uses LC fiber connectors and follows the QSFP28 form factor. With a compact 20 g weight and a reported MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, it is intended for installation in compatible high‑speed network equipment where reliable optical connectivity is required.

Advantages

The module provides high throughput for data‑center and carrier networks, supporting 100 Gigabit Ethernet over single‑mode fiber using LC connectors. Its QSFP28 form factor enables dense port packing in switches and routers while the low weight and standardized interface simplify handling and installation. A long rated reach and high MTBF contribute to dependable optical links for extended deployments.

Suitable for

• 100 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks and inter-switch connections
• Data center top-of-rack and spine deployments
• Long‑reach single‑mode fiber links up to 10 km
• High‑density switch or router port expansion

How to use

Install the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or media converter following the equipment manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the connected fiber cable uses LC connectors and is appropriate for the supported single‑mode distance. Observe ESD precautions when handling the module and remove protective caps from the optical interfaces only immediately before connection. After insertion, verify link status and configure the host device for the intended 100 Gigabit Ethernet operation.

Recommendations

Use single‑mode fiber rated for the required link distance and verify that the switch or router firmware supports third‑party QSFP28 modules. Keep optical connectors clean and store the module with protective caps when not in use to maintain optical performance.
