QSFP-100G-SR4

The QSFP-100G-SR4 is a high-speed optical transceiver designed to handle 100Gbps data rates over multi-mode fiber. It’s commonly used in data center networks where short-reach connectivity is required between switches and servers. Network engineers and IT professionals rely on this module for reliable, high-bandwidth connections that support demanding applications.

Often found in environments that run large-scale computing or storage systems, it fits well in setups that need rapid data transfers without the expense or complexity of longer-range optics.

Key Features

• Utilizes four parallel fiber lanes to achieve 100Gbps aggregate speed
• Supports transmission distances of up to 70m on OM3 and 100m on OM4 fibers
• Compliant with IEEE 802.3bm 100GBASE-SR4 standards
• Hot-pluggable form factor compatible with QSFP+ ports
• Low power consumption suitable for dense networking racks

This type of transceiver is typically deployed within server racks and between switches in data centers. Its short-range capabilities make it ideal for connecting equipment in close proximity while maintaining strong signal integrity. By using this transceiver, network operators can build flexible, high-capacity links that support fast data movement without significant infrastructure changes.
