• Maximum data transfer rate: 100000 Mbit/s (100 Gb/s)
• Colour: silver
• Weight: 0.04 kg
• Mean time between failures (MTBF): 1,000,000 hours

How to use

Insert the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on your switch or router until it seats firmly; the module supports hot-plug operation so powering down is generally not required. Connect appropriate fiber optic cables or breakout assemblies that match the transceiver's optical interface and network design. Verify link status and speed in the host device's management interface and monitor the link for errors or alarms during initial operation. Follow vendor guidance for handling to avoid contamination of optical interfaces and ensure stable performance.

Usage recommendations

Handle the transceiver by its housing, keep dust caps in place when unused, and clean fiber connectors before mating. Use this module in compatible QSFP28 ports with matching optical cabling and follow your equipment vendor's compatibility matrix. For mission-critical links, plan monitoring and redundancy to leverage the module's long MTBF while ensuring continuous service.
