This article will introduce the specifications of 100G optical module,100G optical module refers to the transmission rate of 100G optical module,its package type is QSFP28,mainly used in 100G QSFP28 Ethernet switch/router port or fiber optic network card port.100G optical module support transmission distance of 100 meters,2 km,10 km,40 km 100G optical modules support transmission distances of 100 meters,2 kilometers,10 kilometers,40 kilometers,etc.Specific product-related parameters can be found in the table below.

100G optical modules can be used on switches such as Huawei CloudEngine 12800 series switches,Cisco Nexus 9000 series switches,Ruijie RG-N18000-X(Newton Newton)series switches,RG-S6510 series data center and cloud computing switches.

The 100G optical module can help upgrade the internal network of the data center.You can use the 100G SR4 optical module with MPO-LC multimode OM3 fiber patch cable to realize the connection with the 25G SFP28 optical module,or you can directly realize the connection of the 100G switch port.For the interconnection of switches in adjacent data centers,optical modules with long distance transmission such as 100G LR4 or 100G ER4 can be used.

Recently,400G Ethernet has become a hot topic of concern in the communication industry.It is both a windfall and a challenge,and network equipment vendors have launched 400G switches,and Optic Transceiver communication products have followed suit with 400G optical modules.

First,let's look at the 400G optical module,the same 400G transmission rate,400G optical module compared to four 100G optical module,the total power consumption is lower,the number of optical modules and optical fiber required less.400G optical module package type is OSFP or QSFP-DD,compared to the QSFP-DD package size is smaller(and the traditional 100G optical module QSFP28 In comparison,the QSFP-DD package is smaller(similar to the QSFP28 package of traditional 100G Optical Transceiver modules)and more suitable for data center applications;the OSFP package is slightly larger and more suitable for telecom applications because it provides more power consumption.

The 400G switch is not only higher bandwidth,but it also has more features such as:ultra-high speed policy,segmentation and whitelisting;wire-speed data collection and system telemetry for real-time visibility of packets,streams and events;intelligent caching for big data or storage and machine learning workloads by dynamically prioritizing packets;minimizing latency and the ability to prioritize business-critical traffic on demand,and more www.fs-transceivers.com.

The advent of 400G switches and optical modules can help data centers upgrade from the original 100G to 400G.While 400G switches are an upgrade in bandwidth,at the same time,it is a holistic upgrade from hardware bandwidth,deployability,and investment protection to SDN solutions and software programmability.
