Transceiver BlueOptics MMA1B00-C100T-BO QSFP28 100GBASE-SR4 MPO/MTP multimode 4×850 nm 100 m DDM/DOM 0–70 °C

BlueOptics MMA1B00-C100T-BO is a QSFP28 optical transceiver designed for 100GBASE-SR4 multimode fiber links. The module transmits over four parallel 850 nm lanes via an MPO/MTP connector and supports link distances up to 100 metres when used with appropriate OM3/OM4 multimode fiber. Integrated DDM/DOM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring / Digital Optical Monitoring) provides real-time status of optical parameters, while the transceiver is specified to operate across an ambient temperature range of 0°C to +70°C, making it suitable for standard data centre environments.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a compact QSFP28 form factor enabling 100 Gbps aggregation in a single port, reducing the number of cables and ports required for high-speed interconnects. Using an MPO/MTP interface with four 850 nm lanes provides compatibility with common multimode backbone cabling and structured cabling systems. Built-in DDM/DOM support simplifies monitoring and maintenance by exposing optical power, temperature and other diagnostics to management systems. The specified operating temperature range and industry-standard electrical and optical interfaces allow straightforward integration into existing switch and server environments.

How to use

Install the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or server NIC following the equipment manufacturer’s hot-plug procedures. Connect the MPO/MTP multimode fiber assembly ensuring correct polarity and that the cable type meets the required OM3/OM4 specification for the intended distance. Verify link status through the host device and use the DDM/DOM diagnostics to confirm optical power levels and temperature. Ensure firmware and hardware compatibility with the host platform before deployment.

Recommendations

For reliable 100G links, use certified OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber and MPO/MTP trunk assemblies with correct cleaning and handling procedures. Avoid exceeding the specified 100 m reach and maintain temperature within 0°C to +70°C. Use the DDM/DOM readings to troubleshoot attenuation and connector issues and follow vendor guidelines for transceiver interoperability.
