Intel E40GQSFPLR 40Gb/s 40GBase-LR 1310nm QSFP+ Transceiver Module

Product Description

The Intel E40GQSFPLR is a high-density Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (QSFP+) transceiver module engineered for 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) connectivity. This module operates at a wavelength of 1310nm, utilizing single-mode fiber optic cable to achieve long-reach transmission distances. It adheres to the 40GBase-LR standard, which specifies performance characteristics for links up to 10 kilometers (approximately 6.2 miles) over standard single-mode fiber. This QSFP+ transceiver is designed for applications requiring high-bandwidth, long-distance network connections, such as data center interconnects, campus backbones, and service provider networks. The 1310nm wavelength is characteristic of lasers used for longer reach optical communications over single-mode fiber, providing a stable and efficient optical signal. The module typically features a duplex LC connector, the standard interface for single-mode fiber optic patch cords. As a product from Intel, a leading technology provider, the E40GQSFPLR is built to deliver reliable and high-performance networking. Its QSFP+ form factor allows for high port density on network switches and routers, enabling efficient use of rack space and power. This transceiver is a critical component for modern high-speed networks that demand robust, long-distance connectivity solutions.
