100G QSFP28 FR1—single-lambda PAM4 @ ~1310 nm over LC-duplex, up to 2 km on OS2; CAUI-4 host with gearbox, SFF-8636 DOM—ideal for long-reach data-center and metro access.
The 100G QSFP28 FR1 is a single-wavelength 100-Gigabit Ethernet transceiver for links up to 2 km. It utilizes 100G PAM4 optics around 1310 nm on a duplex LC interface and presents a CAUI-4 (4×25.78 G NRZ) electrical host with an integrated gearbox—ideal for spine/leaf fabrics, campus DCI, and metro access where simple LC cabling and longer reach are required.
