Modulo ricetrasmettitore in fibra ottica BlueOptics 60173-BO QSFP 150m

The BlueOptics 60173-BO QSFP 150m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for 40G high-speed short-range links over multimode fiber. It implements a QSFP interface in a lightweight aluminium housing and supports optical transmission up to 150 metres. The module uses MPO/MTP connectivity and operates with 850 nm transmit and receive wavelengths appropriate for 40GBASE-SR4 applications, making it suitable for data centre and aggregation links where compact 40 Gbit/s lanes are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics QSFP module provides a compact, low-weight solution with aluminum construction and a product weight of approximately 20 grams. It conforms to MSA dimensions and supports multi-protocol use including Ethernet and Fibre Channel over short-reach multimode fibre. Components are selected for long operational lifetime and the module includes digital diagnostic monitoring capabilities where supported by the host hardware.

Suitable for

• 40G short-reach links in data centres and server rooms
• Switch-to-switch and switch-to-chassis connections over multimode fibre
• High-bandwidth uplinks and aggregation ports
• Environments requiring MPO/MTP terminated fibre cabling

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP
• Maximum reach: up to 150 metres on multimode fibre
• Wavelength: 850 nm transmit/receive
• Connector: MPO/MTP multimode
• Supported protocols: 40GBASE-SR4 (suitable for Ethernet and Fibre Channel over multimode fibre)
• Housing material: aluminium
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Digital diagnostic monitoring: supported when enabled by host hardware

How to use

Install the QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on switches, routers or other network equipment that supports 40GBASE-SR4 modules and MPO/MTP connectivity. Use an appropriate multimode MPO/MTP patch cord or fanout cable to connect to patch panels or adjacent transceivers. Ensure the host device firmware and software recognise third-party BlueOptics modules; perform link tests and monitor signal levels via the digital diagnostic interface if the host supports DDM/DOM.

Recommendations

For best performance, use OM3/OM4 multimode fibre for runs up to 150 m, keep MPO/MTP connectors clean and properly keyed, and verify that the DDM/DOM function is enabled on the host for real-time diagnostics. Confirm compatibility with your exact hardware platform before deployment.
