QSFP28 transceiver BlueOptics QSFP28-100G-CWDM4-NV 100G 100000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics QSFP28-100G-CWDM4-NV is a fiber optic transceiver module engineered for 100G networks. It uses a QSFP28 interface to provide up to 100000 Mbit/s aggregate throughput in a compact form factor. The module is lightweight (0.04 kg) and finished in silver, designed for installation in compatible QSFP28 ports in switches, routers or optical multiplexers. It is supplied as an individually packaged unit suitable for deployment in data center and carrier environments where high-density, high-speed links are required.

Advantages

This transceiver supports high-bandwidth 100G connections while maintaining a small physical footprint, enabling higher port density in networking equipment. The QSFP28 interface offers hot-pluggable operation and straightforward compatibility with QSFP28 ports. The module's CWDM4 technology provides wavelength-multiplexed transmission suitable for multi-channel short to medium reach links. Individual packaging helps protect the module during storage and transport.

Suitable for

• 100G uplinks between switches and routers in data centers

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP28-100G-CWDM4-NV into a compatible QSFP28 port following the host device manufacturer's hot-plug and handling guidelines. Ensure the port and firmware support 100G CWDM4 modules. Connect appropriate fiber cabling and CWDM-compatible transceivers or patch panels at the remote end. Verify link status and data rate via switch or router management interfaces and monitor optical parameters if supported.

Recommendations

Handle the transceiver with electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions and keep dust caps on until the module is inserted. Use certified multimode or single-mode fiber and ensure connectors are clean to maintain signal quality. Confirm compatibility with your networking equipment and update device firmware if required to ensure optimal performance.
