Product overview

40G QSFP+ SR4 is designed for 100m OM3 / 150m OM4 links using MPO-12. Selection must confirm the host form factor, electrical interface, PMD, FEC, fiber mapping, power and thermal limits, software version and the remote endpoint; the model name alone does not establish interoperability.

  • QSFP+ SR4 form factor for the defined host-port direction.

  • MPO-12 interface for 100m OM3 / 150m OM4 links.

  • Parallel multimode optical transmission; confirm the exact fiber or cable assembly before ordering.

  • Validate host coding, FEC, diagnostics, power, thermal behavior and long-duration stability.

Selection and deployment notes

  • Before ordering 40G QSFP+ SR4, confirm the exact host, software, port mode, reach, fiber or cable, connector, FEC, temperature, quantity, compatibility coding and delivery version.

Selection FAQ

40G QSFP+ SR4 selection questions

How far will 40G QSFP+ SR4 run on OM3 versus OM4?

The specification lists 100m OM3 / 150m OM4. Multimode reach is bounded by modal bandwidth, so the fiber grade already in the ground decides the usable distance rather than the module. Re-check the loss budget whenever patch panels or splices sit in the path.

What has to match at the far end of 40G QSFP+ SR4?

The same PMD, the same fiber grade, and MPO-12 polarity and lane order. Parallel multimode links such as 40G QSFP+ SR4 fail in confusing ways when polarity is wrong: the port may show light without ever coming up, so verify the trunk type before troubleshooting the module.

What do I need to specify to request a quote for 40G QSFP+ SR4?

Give the host vendor, model and software version at both ends, the QSFP+ port or lane mode, the operating temperature range, the quantity per site and the target delivery date. For 40G QSFP+ SR4 also state the installed fiber grade, the MPO-12 trunk type and the measured link distance. Compatibility is confirmed per platform, so the host details matter as much as the optical specification.
