100G QSFP28 SR4—4×25G NRZ @ 850 nm over MPO-12; up to 70 m (OM3) / 100 m (OM4/OM5), SFF-8636 DOM, low power—ideal for spine/leaf and 4×25G breakouts.
The 100G QSFP28 SR4 is a 100-Gigabit Ethernet multimode transceiver for short-reach, high-density data-center links. It uses 4×25G NRZ at 850 nm over MTP/MPO-12 (8 fibers active) with a CAUI-4 (4×25.78 Gbps) electrical host—ideal for spine/leaf fabrics and 4×25G breakouts to TOR/aggregation switches.
