With the rise of cloud computing and 5G networks, data centers are moving toward higher data rate, and the demand for 100G optical transceivers is increasing. Today, 100G optical transceivers account for a large proportion of network construction costs. In application environments in data centers, more than 90% of fiber optical links in small and medium-sized data centers are less than 100 meters in length, and more than 70% of fiber optical links in large data centers are less than 100 meters in length, more than 80% of the links are less than 125 meters, multimode fibers can meet the needs of most links, so multimode transceivers gain the most needs in 100G transceivers. The QSFP28 100G multimode module has three main solutions: 100GBASE-SRBD, 100GBASE-SR4,100GBASE-SWDM4. 01 Product Specifications Among the three 100G multimode transceivers, 100GBASE-SR4 is the most widely used. 100G QSFP28 SR4 is a hot-swappable full-duplex optical module with a central wavelength of 850nm. It confo...
