Product Description
The Brocade 40G-QSFP-LR4-8 is a high-density, high-performance transceiver module designed for 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) and other high-speed networking applications. It utilizes the QSFP+ form factor, which allows for four independent 10Gb/s channels to be aggregated into a single 40Gb/s link. This specific model operates at a 1310nm wavelength, making it suitable for long-reach deployments over single-mode fiber (SMF) infrastructure. The LR4 designation typically indicates a Long Reach application, often utilizing Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) to transmit multiple channels over a single pair of fibers. In the case of 40GbE LR4, it usually involves four different wavelengths around the 1310nm band, each carrying 10Gb/s, aggregated by the transceiver. This enables high-bandwidth connectivity over extended distances, commonly found in data center interconnects, campus backbones, and metropolitan area networks. This Brocade transceiver is engineered for reliability and performance in demanding enterprise and service provider environments. Its ability to support 40Gb/s speeds over SMF makes it a crucial component for upgrading network infrastructure to meet the growing demands for bandwidth. The QSFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with a wide range of switches, routers, and network interface cards that support this standard.
