QSFP transceiver BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-SP-BO 40 Mbit/s kov

The BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-SP-BO is a metal-housed QSFP fiber optic transceiver module engineered for high-speed optical links with a maximum data transfer rate of 40 Mbit/s. It implements a QSFP interface in a compact, 20 g form factor and is intended for single-mode fiber connections using LC Duplex termination. The module is designed for long operational lifetime and reliability with a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours.

Advantages

The metal enclosure provides mechanical durability and thermal stability during continuous operation. Compliance with QSFP MSA electrical and mechanical specifications ensures interoperability with compatible networking hardware. Digital diagnostics support enables remote monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature when the host supports DDM/DOM. The module’s low weight and standardized QSFP footprint simplify integration into switches, routers and other transceiver-capable platforms.

Suitable for

• 40G optical uplinks and interconnects between data center switches
• High-speed links in storage area networks and server clusters
• Long-distance single-mode fiber connections where LC Duplex termination is used

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP
• Maximum data transfer rate: 40 Mbit/s
• Fiber type: single-mode fiber (LC Duplex connector)
• Housing: metal
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Operational reliability: MTBF 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the transceiver into a QSFP-compatible port on supported networking equipment until it latches securely. Connect single-mode LC Duplex patch cords between transceivers or to a suitable patch panel, observing correct transmit/receive orientation. Verify link status in the host device and, if available, enable DDM/DOM to monitor real-time parameters. Follow the equipment vendor’s recommendations for hot-plugging and port configuration.

Recommendations

Ensure compatibility with the target hardware by confirming the host platform supports QSFP modules and the specified optical protocol. Use quality single-mode LC Duplex patch cords and maintain proper patch panel routing to optimize link performance and range. If DDM/DOM is required for monitoring, confirm host support to access diagnostic metrics.
