BlueOptics 740-059185-BO QSFP Transceiver Module 40000 Mbit/s

The BlueOptics 740-059185-BO QSFP transceiver module is a compact optical interface designed for 40 Gigabit Ethernet links. Supporting a maximum data transfer rate of 40000 Mbit/s and a maximum reach of up to 40000 m, this module is intended for high-speed fiber connections in data centers and enterprise networks. The module features an LC fiber connector, a silver housing and a lightweight design of approximately 20 g, with a mean time between failures of around 1,000,000 hours for continuous operation.

Advantages

This QSFP module provides a standardized 40 Gigabit Ethernet interface that enables high-throughput data transmission over long distances. Its small form factor and low weight simplify installation and hot-swap replacement in modular switches and transceivers bays. The LC connector and silver metal housing offer durable fiber connections and mechanical compatibility with common fiber optic patching systems.

How to use

Install the QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on the switch, router or media converter following the host device manufacturer's insertion procedure. Connect LC-terminated fiber patch cords to the module's LC connector, observing correct polarity and ensuring clean end-faces to maintain optical performance. Verify link status and configure the host device for 40 Gigabit Ethernet operation as required by the network design.

Recommendations

Before installation, inspect and clean fiber connectors with appropriate cleaning tools. Use single-mode fiber cabling matched to the specified reach. Avoid mechanical stress to the module and fiber cables; follow ESD precautions when handling the transceiver. For long-term reliability, monitor link performance and replace the module if signal degradation or persistent link faults occur.
