Questions & Answers

The 400G QSFP112 DR4 transceiver: what is it?

A small, high-density optical module made specifically for 400G Ethernet applications is the 400G QSFP112 DR4. It employs 4x100G PAM4 modulation over a 500-meter-range single-mode fiber (SMF). It enables cloud networks, high-performance computing, and data center interconnects (DCI) by utilizing the QSFP112 form factor, designed for 112 Gbps per lane.

Can QSFP112 DR4 be used with QSFP ports that are already in place?

No, QSFP112 is not backward compatible with QSFP28 (25G/100G) or QSFP56 (50G/200G) ports; instead, it employs a new pinout to allow 112 Gbps lanes. Switches or routers that are compatible with QSFP112 are required.

What kind of connections and fiber does DR4 use?

The fiber has a wavelength of 1310 nm and is single-mode fiber (SMF).
Connection: MPO-12/APC connection, with 4x100G transmission using 8 fibers (4 Tx/Rx pairs).

Is a breakout connection possible with DR4?

DR4 can divide 400G into 4x100G connections (e.g., connecting to 100G QSFP28 ports) via an MPO-to-4xLC breakout cable. Make that breakout mode is supported by the switch firmware.

What is the difference between DR4, FR4, and SR4?

DR4: 4x100G PAM4, MPO-12, 500m over SMF.
FR4: 4x100G LAN-WDM, LC connections, 2km over SMF.
SR4: 4x100G NRZ, MPO-12, 100m over multi-mode fiber (MMF).
Use Case: FR4 works for longer distances, SR4 is for short MMF trips, and DR4 strikes a compromise between cost and reach for intra-datacenter links.

What distinguishes QSFP112 from QSFP-DD?

– QSFP112: single-row connection, lower footprint, 4x112G lanes (400G total).
– QSFP-DD: double-density connection with 8x50G lanes (400G total) for increased scalability.
Trade-off: QSFP-DD provides backward compatibility with QSFP28/56, while QSFP112 streamlines the deployment of 112G lanes.
