200G QSFP56 SR4—4×50G PAM4 @ 850 nm over MPO-12; up to 70 m (OM3) / 100 m (OM4/OM5); 200GAUI-4 electrical, CMIS management—ideal for high-density spine/leaf and 4×50G breakouts.
The 200G QSFP56 SR4 is a 200-Gigabit Ethernet multimode transceiver for short-reach, high-density data-center links. It uses 4×50G PAM4 at 850 nm over MTP/MPO-12 (8 fibers active) and a 200GAUI-4 electrical host—ideal for spine/leaf fabrics and 4×50G breakouts to TOR/aggregation switches.
