Dell (Force10) compatible 407-BBXT Description

EdgeOptic's 407-BBXT compatible is a Dell-coded version of the EdgeOptic BIDI-40G-QSFP-150 multi-vendor 40G BiDi QSFP+ transceiver. Dell.com lists XT61J as the manufacturer part number tied to this ordering code.

The underlying hardware uses dual VCSEL transmitters at 850 and 900 nm with PIN photodiode receivers, NRZ modulation and an average link budget of 2 dB, reaching 150 m over OM4/OM5 and 100 m over OM3 duplex LC multimode fiber. Average launch power runs -4 to 5 dBm per lane, average receive sensitivity is -6 to 3 dBm per lane, and DDM/DOM diagnostics are supported.

Operating temperature is rated 0 to 70C, with storage from -40 to 85C and a single 3.3V power supply. The build carries IEEE 802.3ba, QSFP+ MSA, CE, RoHS and Class 1 laser safety certification per FDA and IEC 60825-1. The Dell PowerSwitch application scope for this part runs 40 Gigabit Ethernet only; the underlying hardware's broader data rate envelope does not apply on Ethernet-only switching platforms.

Dell.com lists the 407-BBXT as a supported transceiver for the PowerSwitch MX5108n, PowerSwitch MX9116n and PowerSwitch S4048T-ON. Verify host recognition behavior against Dell's own transceiver compatibility documentation for the deployed firmware release, and check additional platform support against Dell's compatible-systems matrix for other PowerSwitch models and regions, since listings vary.

EdgeOptic backs the 407-BBXT with a lifetime warranty, built on 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms, and ships next business day from EU stock. For project-quantity pricing or alternative vendor coding, contact our sales team.
