Optický transceiver modul BlueOptics SM100G-LR 100000 Mbit/s QSFP28

The BlueOptics SM100G-LR is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for 100 Gbps single-mode links. Featuring a QSFP28 interface and a compact silver housing, this module supports high-speed data transmission for datacenter and carrier networks. With a lightweight construction of approximately 40 g, the module is suitable for dense port deployments where space and airflow considerations are important.

Advantages

The transceiver provides a standardized QSFP28 form factor for compatibility with 100G-capable switches and routers. Its single-mode optical design enables long-reach connections over single-mode fiber, helping to reduce the number of active devices required for extended links. The compact and lightweight metal housing offers reliable mechanical stability while simplifying installation and removal in high-density racks.

Suitable for

• 100 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between switches and routers
• Campus and data center backbone connections over single-mode fiber
• Carrier and service provider long-reach fiber links
• High-density port installations requiring QSFP28 modules

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SM100G-LR into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or optical interface card while the host device is powered down or following hot-swap guidelines provided by the equipment vendor. Connect single-mode fiber cables with the appropriate connectors for the module’s transceivers, observe correct polarity, and verify link status through the host device’s management interface. Ensure optical power and link settings match the network design to achieve stable 100 Gbps operation.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with the target chassis and optics support list before deployment, use appropriate dust caps when the module is not connected, and follow ESD precautions during handling. For long-reach links, confirm fiber route quality and optical power budget to maintain reliable performance.
