QSFP-40G-SR-BD

This Cisco QSFP-40G-SR-BD transceiver module facilitates 40Gbps data transmission over multi-mode fiber using BiDi (bidirectional) technology. It's commonly found in data center environments and enterprise networks requiring high bandwidth and compact fiber cabling.

Built for high-density switch ports and servers, it allows network engineers to maximize fiber utilization by using duplex LC connectors in a bi-directional setup.

Key Features

• Operates at 40 Gigabits per second, supporting high-throughput applications
• BiDi transceiver reduces fiber cabling complexity by sending and receiving on different wavelengths over a single fiber pair
• Compatible with OM3 and OM4 multi-mode fiber for distances up to 100 meters
• Hot-swappable QSFP+ form factor fits into a wide range of Cisco switches and devices
• Complies with IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-SR-BD standards ensuring interoperability

This transceiver is typically deployed in data centers where space and cable management are critical. It helps reduce fiber count while maintaining high-speed links, streamlining network architecture without compromising performance.
