Intel Ethernet QSFP28 Optics are an excellent choice for fiber systems in high-speed communications equipment. Both short range and long-range transceiver modules are available for maximum customer flexibility. The extended case operating temperature allows customers to support a range of server requirements.
These 100GbE optical transceivers come integrated with four independent transmit and receive channels, each capable of 25GbE operation, for an aggregate data rate of 100GbE. The QSFP28 SR4 transceiver is a high-performing module for SR optical links over OM4 MMF, and is ideal for short-range, multi-lane data communication, and interconnects applications. The QSFP28 LR4 module is designed for extended reach and supports links up to 10 km of single mode fiber.
When used with Intel Ethernet Network Adapters with QSFP28 connectivity, these optics provide interoperability and secure connections for virtualized platforms, high-speed networking, and consistently reliable performance.
