Glasvezel-transceivermodule BlueOptics 474899A-BO 40000 Mbit/s QSFP

The BlueOptics 474899A-BO is a QSFP fiber optic transceiver module designed for 40 Gbit/s high-speed optical links. Compatible with Nokia 474899A platforms, this compact silver module supports multimode fiber connections and MPO/MTP interfacing to deliver short-range 40G transmission in networking equipment. Weighing approximately 40 g and following MSA form-factor guidelines, the module is intended for integration into switches, routers and storage systems that accept QSFP 40G transceivers.

Advantages

This QSFP transceiver provides a 40 Gbit/s data transfer rate in a compact MSA-compliant form factor and uses MPO/MTP multi-fiber connection for parallel optical lanes. It is compatible with major hardware supporting the Nokia 474899A specification and is factory-tested for interoperability. The transceiver uses multimode 850 nm optics optimized for short-reach 40G links and includes digital diagnostics support for real-time monitoring of operating parameters.

Suitable for

• 40G connections between switches and aggregation devices over multimode fiber
• High-bandwidth links in data center top-of-rack and spine architectures
• Interconnects for storage systems and high-performance networking appliances
• Environments requiring MSA-compatible QSFP modules with MPO/MTP connectivity

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP (QSFP form factor)
• Maximum data transfer rate: 40000 Mbit/s (40 Gbit/s)
• Optical wavelength: 850 nm (multimode, short-reach optics)
• Connector: MPO/MTP multi-fiber connector
• Typical reach: suitable for short-range multimode deployment (per multimode fiber standards)
• Colour: Silver
• Weight: 0.04 kg

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 474899A-BO QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP port on supported networking hardware following the equipment manufacturer's hot-swap and electrostatic discharge (ESD) guidance. Connect an MPO/MTP multimode fiber patch cord between the transceiver and the corresponding patch panel or partner transceiver. Ensure the host device firmware and driver settings support 40G operation and, if required, enable digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) through the host management interface to read voltage, temperature and optical power values.

Recommendations

For reliable short-reach 40G links, use quality OM3/OM4 multimode fiber and MPO/MTP patch cords rated for 40G applications. Verify host compatibility with Nokia 474899A-compatible QSFP modules and confirm network firmware supports DDM/DOM if diagnostic monitoring is needed. Follow proper handling procedures to avoid contamination of MPO/MTP connectors and perform connector cleaning before mating.
