Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics 740-061406-BO 100000 Mbit/s QSFP28

The BlueOptics 740-061406-BO is a QSFP28 fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed data transfer up to 100000 Mbit/s. Housed in a robust metal enclosure with a compact silver form factor and a weight of approximately 40 g, this module supports single-mode fiber transmission using an MPO/MTP connector and implements the 100GBASE-PSM4 optical profile. It provides parallel transmit and receive channels with CWDM wavelength multiplexing and is intended for integration into network platforms that accept QSFP28 modules.

Advantages

The transceiver offers a high aggregate data rate of 100 Gbit/s in a QSFP28 form factor, a compact and durable metal housing, and support for MPO/MTP connectivity according to MSA standards. Built with components from established optics and IC suppliers, the module includes digital diagnostic monitoring capability (DDM/DOM) for real-time parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, optical transmit and receive power, and temperature. Its single-mode optical design enables multi-kilometer reach while avoiding electromagnetic interference typical of copper connections.

Suitable for

• 100G Ethernet uplinks and aggregation in data center switches and routers
• High-speed interconnects in storage systems and SAN environments
• Carrier and metro transport links over single-mode fiber up to several kilometers
• Applications requiring MPO/MTP parallel fiber connectivity and CWDM-based channels

How to use

Insert the BlueOptics QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on switches, routers or other network equipment while the host device is powered according to the vendor instructions. Connect an MPO/MTP single-mode fiber cable matching the module's polarity and channel assignment to the transceiver. Verify link status and, where supported, read the DDM/DOM diagnostics from the host interface to confirm operational parameters. When removing the module, follow ESD precautions and use the built-in release mechanism to avoid damage.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality MPO/MTP single-mode patch cords and, where appropriate, MPO breakouts or patch panels to preserve optical channel alignment. Confirm that the host hardware and firmware support 100GBASE-PSM4 and DDM functions before deployment. For long-term reliability, store the module in a dry, dust-free environment and observe manufacturer guidelines for insertion cycles and operating temperature ranges.
