Optický transceiver modul BlueOptics 321-2001-BO 40000 Mbit/s QSFP

The BlueOptics 321-2001-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed network links. With a maximum data transfer rate of 40000 Mbit/s and a compact silver housing, this module supports dense connectivity in switches, routers and servers while keeping a small footprint and low weight (20 g). The product specification includes a high mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, indicating suitability for continuous operation in data centers and enterprise networks.

Advantages

The QSFP interface provides a standardized form factor for quad-channel optical links, enabling 40 Gbit/s aggregated throughput. The transceiver’s low weight and compact dimensions allow easy installation in populated line cards and optical cages. A high MTBF contributes to long-term reliability and reduced maintenance cycles. The silver finish helps identify modules visually and match equipment aesthetics.

Suitable for

• 40 Gbit/s uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• High-density optical ports in data center switches and routers
• Server-to-switch connections requiring short to medium-range fiber links
• Network equipment replacements or upgrades where QSFP compatibility is required

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 40000 Mbit/s (40 Gbit/s)
• Product colour: Silver
• Weight: 0.02 kg (20 g)
• Reliability: MTBF 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Install the BlueOptics QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP slot on your network device, ensuring correct alignment and firm seating until the module latches. Connect the appropriate fiber optic cable assembly to the transceiver’s optical interface following the device vendor’s polarity and connector type requirements. After insertion, verify link status and configure network interfaces as needed on the host device. For removal, power down or administratively disable the interface per your equipment procedures, unlatch the module and pull it straight out to avoid damaging the connector.

Recommendations

Handle the module by the housing, avoid touching the optical interfaces, and keep protective dust caps on when the transceiver is not connected. Use compatible QSFP ports and certified fiber cabling to ensure optimal performance and observe ESD precautions during installation and removal.
