The QSFP28 LR4 is a hot-pluggable, four-channel, and full-duplex optical transceiver module designed for long-distance transmission up to 10 km in the 100G Ethernet network with a working bandwidth of 1295nm to 1310nm. Marcus examined the six QSFP28 LR4 modules arranged on his workbench. He had processed $12,000 worth of RMA'd optics in just two weeks. His 100G spine links kept dropping with CRC errors, and the system showed a frustrating mix of interface flapping and unexplained downtime. With up to 100 Gbps speeds, it is frequently used within data centers, enterprise networks, and telecommunications. Intel® Ethernet QSFP28 Optic delivers high-performing computing interconnect for deployments of 100GbE Intel® Ethernet QSFP28 Optic Overview Intel® Ethernet QSFP28 Optics are an excellent choice for fiber systems in high-speed communications equipment. The optical transceiver is RoHS compliant. 1G to 400G solutions for data centers & networks.
