Overview
The Arista QSFP-100G-SR4 is a 100GBASE SR4 transceiver designed for high-speed data transmission over multimode fiber. It is equipped with an MPO connector and supports 100G Ethernet rates, making it suitable for data center and high-performance computing networks. This transceiver module is capable of transmitting data over distances of up to 70 meters using OM3 multimode fiber and up to 100 meters using OM4 multimode fiber, with a total loss budget of 1.9 dB.
The QSFP-100G-SR4 leverages a 12-fiber parallel fiber configuration, enabling efficient and high-bandwidth optical links. It is specifically designed to support the demands of 100 Gigabit Ethernet connections, providing a reliable solution for expanding network capacity. The module's compatibility with multimode fiber types OM3 and OM4 offers flexibility in deployment across various network infrastructures.
In addition to supporting short-range connections, the QSFP-100G-SR4 is capable of extended reach up to 40 kilometers when paired with G.652 single-mode fiber and duplex LC connectors. This feature is particularly useful for applications requiring long-distance communication without compromising data integrity. The 100 Gigabit Ethernet signal is transmitted across four wavelengths, ensuring high performance and reliability over the full 40km reach. Without Forward Error Correction (FEC), the module still offers a considerable reach of 30km, providing versatility in network design and implementation.
The QSFP-100G-SR4 also offers backward compatibility with Cisco’s CPAK ER4-Lite and is interoperable with IEEE 100GBASE-ER4 standardized transceivers, including Cisco’s CFP 100G ER4 for distances up to 30km. This compatibility ensures seamless integration into existing network environments, reducing the need for extensive upgrades or equipment changes.
As a hot-swappable input/output device, the QSFP-100G-SR4 can be easily installed or removed without disrupting the network, facilitating maintenance and upgrades. Its high-speed electrical interface is compliant with IEEE 802.3bm, ensuring compatibility with the latest Ethernet standards and technologies.
Key specifications include:
-
- Support for 100GBase Ethernet rate.
- Compatibility with MMF Type - OM3, OM4.
- Hot-swappable with high-speed electrical interface compliant to IEEE 802.3bm.
