Transceiver modul BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-PSM1310-BO 40 Gbit/s 1310 nm

BlueOptics QSFP-40G-LR4-PSM1310-BO is a QSFP transceiver module engineered for 40 Gbit/s optical links at a 1310 nm wavelength. It supports multi-channel transmission in a compact QSFP form factor, enabling high-density port deployment in data centers and enterprise networks. The module is designed for long-reach single-mode fiber connections and supports hot-pluggable installation to simplify upgrades or replacements without service interruptions.

Advantages

The transceiver combines a small QSFP footprint with 40 Gbit/s throughput and a 1310 nm optical window, offering reliable long-distance connectivity over single-mode fiber. Its hot-pluggable design allows for fast replacement and maintenance while minimizing downtime. The module’s compatibility with standard QSFP cages and optical interfaces supports straightforward integration into existing switches and routers.

Suitable for

• Data center uplinks and spine-leaf architectures
• Long-reach aggregation links between switches and routers
• Enterprise backbone and campus networks requiring 40 Gbit/s capacity
• High-density networking environments with limited rack space

Key specifications

• Data rate: 40 Gbit/s
• Wavelength: 1310 nm
• Form factor: QSFP (quad small form-factor pluggable)
• Optical fiber type: single-mode fiber
• Hot-pluggable: yes

How to use

Install the module into an available QSFP port on a compatible switch or router following the device manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure the host port supports 40 Gbit/s operation and the optical transceiver type. Connect single-mode fiber cables with appropriate connectors to the module and verify link status through the host device management interface. For hot-swap replacement, power-down is typically unnecessary; remove the module using the release mechanism and insert the replacement module until it clicks into place.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single-mode fiber and clean connectors to maintain optimal signal performance. Verify compatibility with the network equipment vendor and confirm link settings such as speed and lane mapping. For long-distance links, factor in link budget and any intermediate passive components; perform post-installation testing to validate error rates and throughput.
