QSFP-lähetin-vastaanotinmoduuli BlueOptics AFCT-88EEDZ-BC-BO 10km

The BlueOptics AFCT-88EEDZ-BC-BO QSFP Transceiver Module 10km is a 40GBASE-LR4 compatible optical transceiver designed for high-speed single‑mode fiber links up to 10,000 metres. Housed in an aluminium casing and weighing approximately 20 grams, this QSFP module provides bidirectional optical transmission with LC duplex connectivity and CWDM-based transmitter and receiver channels. It supports common protocols such as Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet and SDH/SONET where 40 Gbit/s links and LR4 PHYs are required.

Advantages

The module follows MSA-compliant QSFP mechanical and electrical specifications and is fully compatible with platforms that support the original Broadcom AFCT-88EEDZ-BC 40GBASE-LR4 module. It includes CWDM-based optics for LR4 operation over single‑mode fiber, offers Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, output and input power and temperature, and is produced using high‑quality optical lasers and IC components to deliver long service life and high availability.

Suitable for

• 40 Gbit/s data center uplinks and interconnects
• High-speed switch-to-switch or router-to-router links over single‑mode fiber
• Storage area network (SAN) and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) connections
• Long-reach optical links up to 10 km in metropolitan and campus networks

How to use

Insert the QSFP transceiver into a compatible QSFP slot on a switch, router, storage system or other networking hardware that supports 40GBASE-LR4 optics. Connect LC duplex single‑mode fiber patch cords to the transceiver and the remote device following correct polarity. Ensure the host hardware firmware or driver recognizes third‑party compatible modules; enable DDM/DOM in the host if diagnostic monitoring is required. Observe standard ESD precautions during handling and install the module with the equipment powered according to the vendor instructions.

Recommendations

Use high-quality single‑mode LC duplex patch cords and, if applicable, appropriate patch panels to achieve the specified 10 km reach and optimal signal quality. Verify compatibility with the target platform and enable DDM/DOM support to monitor optical parameters remotely. Store and operate the module within the manufacturer’s recommended temperature and humidity ranges and avoid exposure to strong mechanical stress or contamination of optical interfaces.
