Medený transceiver modul BlueOptics 407-BBXT-BO 40000 Mbit/s QSFP

The BlueOptics 407-BBXT-BO Copper transceiver module is a QSFP form-factor device engineered for high-density, high-speed network environments. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 40,000 Mbit/s, this compact copper QSFP module provides a reliable electrical connection for short-reach links and switch-to-switch connections. The module has a small footprint and a grey housing, and its lightweight construction (approximately 40 g) simplifies handling and installation in crowded rack environments.

Advantages

The transceiver offers QSFP interface compatibility for systems that accept quad small form-factor pluggable modules, enabling aggregated multi-lane data transmission over copper. Its rated maximum throughput of 40,000 Mbit/s suits applications that require high bandwidth and low-latency electrical links. The compact size and low weight aid in dense port configurations and reduce strain on module cages. Being a copper module, it provides cost-effective short-range connectivity without the need for fiber cabling.

Suitable for

• High-density switch-to-switch links in data centers
• Top-of-rack aggregation where short-reach copper connections are acceptable
• Servers or appliances with QSFP ports requiring 40 Gbit/s electrical connectivity
• Environments where fiber is unnecessary or not available for short distances

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP (quad small form-factor pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 40,000 Mbit/s (40 Gbit/s)
• Form factor: QSFP electrical copper transceiver
• Housing colour: grey
• Approximate weight: 0.04 kg

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP copper transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on a switch, router or server following the host equipment manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the device is powered off or that hot-swap procedures are followed if supported. After insertion, connect appropriate copper cabling and verify link status through the network equipment's management interface. Monitor link speed and error counters to confirm operation at the expected 40 Gbit/s rate.

Recommendations

Use this copper QSFP module for short-reach connections where fiber optics are not required. Verify QSFP port compatibility and host firmware support before deployment. For runs exceeding the recommended copper distance for QSFP electrical connections, consider using fiber-based transceivers to maintain signal integrity.
