Image of Intel's Silicon Photonics Optical Transceiver 400G DR4+ QSFP-DDIntel's silicon photonics 400G DR4+ (data center reach four-lane with extended reach) QSFP-DD optical transceiver offers a small form-factor, high speed, and low power consumption. It is targeted for use in optical interconnects for data communications applications. The high-bandwidth module supports 400 GbE optical links over single-mode fiber, or quad 100 GbE optical links, for bread-out applications.

Features
  • Meets IEEE 400G BASE-DR4 compliant optical interface standard and 4x 100G Lambda MSA 100G FR optical interface specification for use in 400 GbE or 4x 100 GbE breakout up to 2 Km
  • Meets IEEE 802.3bs 400GAUI-8 (CDAUI-8) electrical interface compliant standard
  • Compact Type-2 QSFP-DD form-factor for high faceplate density in networking equipment and cage-backward compatibility with QSFP28
  • Compatibility with single-mode fiber connectors and cable infrastructures
  • CMIS-compliant management interface with full module diagnostics and control through I2C
Applications
  • Connectivity for large-scale cloud and enterprise data centers
  • Optical interfaces for Ethernet switches
  • Optical interfaces for Ethernet routers
  • Optical interfaces for transport networking equipment
