40GBASE QSFP+ LR4, ER4 optical transceiver module The QSFP+ module is designed for use in 40GBASE Ethernet throughput up to 10km, 30km or 40km over single mode fiber (SMF) using a wavelength of 1310nm via duplex LC connectors. This transceiver is compliant with QSFP+ MSA and IEEE. The Cisco ® 40GBASE QSFP (Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable) portfolio offers customers a wide variety of high-density and low-power 40 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options for data center, high-performance computing 00networks, enterprise core and distribution layers, and service provider. options for data center, high-performance computing networks, enterprise core and distribution layers, and service provider applications. It includes 40GBASE QSFP+ modules, 40G Converter modules, 40G DACs/AOCs and their breakout cables. It has four independent receive and transmit optical channels that can terminate to another 40G QSFP+ transceiver, or can. To meet the demand for higher-density high-speed pluggable solutions, the 40G QSFP+ optical module has emerged.
