The QSFP28 100G-SR4-100m module is a highly integrated 4x25G transceiver focused on reach, bandwidth, density and cost for high port-count 100G systems, and client-side 100G interfaces. Each lane can operate at 25Gbps up to 70m using OM3 fiber or 100m using OM4 fiber. These modules are designed to operate over multimode fiber systems using a nominal wavelength of 850nm. The electrical interface uses a 38-contact edge type connector. The optical interface uses a 12-fiber MTP/MPO connector.
