40G QSFP+ 1310nm LR4 10km

This 40G QSFP+ optical transceiver is engineered for robust, high-capacity connectivity in demanding network environments. It utilizes an advanced 4-channel CWDM (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) design, multiplexing and de-multiplexing four independent optical lanes, each operating at a data rate up to 11.2 Gbps, to deliver an aggregate bandwidth exceeding 40 Gbps. This intelligent integration allows the transmission of the full 40G payload over a single pair of standard single-mode fibers via a duplex LC connector, dramatically simplifying fiber infrastructure compared to parallel optics solutions. It is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3ba standard for 40GBASE-LR4 Ethernet, ensuring guaranteed interoperability and reliable performance over links up to 10 kilometers.

Designed for versatility, this transceiver serves as a critical building block for modern high-speed networks. Its primary applications include establishing high-bandwidth 40GBASE-LR4 Ethernet links for rack-to-rack connections within data centers, interconnecting data center switches and routers, and facilitating cost-effective metro network aggregation. By offering a proven, standardized solution for 10km reach, it enables efficient network architecture scaling, reduces cabling complexity, and provides a dependable backbone for data center interconnects (DCI) and enterprise core networks, ensuring seamless traffic flow for bandwidth-intensive applications.
