QSFP-transceivermodule BlueOptics 10320-BO LC CWDM grijs

The BlueOptics 10320-BO LC CWDM Grey is a QSFP transceiver module engineered for high-speed optical data transmission over single-mode fiber. It uses a QSFP interface with an LC duplex connector and follows CWDM wavelength multiplexing standards. The module is lightweight at approximately 20 g and is RoHS and CE certified, ensuring compliance with environmental and safety regulations. It is compatible with Extreme Networks hardware that supports equivalent 40G QSFP-LR4/CWDM modules.

Advantages

The module provides 40G-class optical connectivity using a QSFP form factor and LC fiber interface, suitable for long-reach single-mode links when used with CWDM systems. Compliance with MSA-defined electrical and mechanical QSFP standards promotes interoperability with supported network equipment. RoHS and CE certifications indicate adherence to environmental and safety directives, while the compact, lightweight design simplifies installation and rack-side handling.

Suitable for

• 40G Ethernet uplinks and inter-switch links in data center networks
• Long-reach single-mode fiber connections using CWDM channels
• High-speed links in routers, switches, and storage systems that accept QSFP optical modules

Key specifications

• Interface type: QSFP
• Connector type: LC duplex (fiber)
• Optical standard: CWDM-compatible transmission
• Weight: 0.02 kg
• Color: Grey
• Certifications: RoHS, CE

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 10320-BO into a compatible QSFP port on your network device following the vendor’s hot-plug procedure. Connect LC duplex single-mode fiber patch cords aligned to the appropriate CWDM wavelengths and ensure the remote link partner is configured for the same channel plan. Verify link status via the host device and, where supported, monitor optical parameters through the device management interface or module diagnostics.

Recommendations

Use single-mode LC patch cords rated for CWDM operation and observe ESD precautions during handling. Confirm that the network equipment firmware and driver settings support third-party QSFP modules and, if available, enable diagnostic monitoring to track optical power, temperature, and supply voltage for preventive maintenance.
