Missing Link in Puzzle

A Missing Link

The network migration to 100G services has made remarkable technological progress towards meeting new applications and reducing upgrade costs. In our previous blog post 'Optimize your cabling infrastructure for 100G'we outlined the steps to evaluate existing fiber cabling to determine the appropriate transceiver. Missing at that time was a solution for upgrading 40G multi-mode fiber links that span up to 300 meters. A migration path to 100G using this existing fiber installation was not available, until now. The new QSFP28 ESR4 transceiver form factor is the missing link for this 100G upgrade puzzle.

The QSFP28 ESR4 transceiver enables networks to quickly upgrade to a 100G (4x25G) environment without replacing existing fiber or network layouts. The QSFP28 ESR4 accepts a standard MPO12-type connector and will connect 100G fiber links up to 300 meters over OM4.
