QSFP-40G-iSR4, Huawei QSFP+ Optical Transceiver, 40G Multi-mode/0.15km/850nm
The QSFP-40G-iSR4 is a high-performance 40G QSFP+ optical transceiver designed for short-range data center interconnect applications over multimode fiber (MMF). Operating at 850nm wavelength, it delivers reliable high-speed transmission up to 100 meters on OM3 fiber and 150 meters on OM4 fiber.
This module adopts a 4-channel parallel optical architecture through an MPO/MTP interface, combining four 10G channels into a single 40G link. It is widely deployed in cloud computing networks, enterprise core switching systems, and high-density data center environments where bandwidth efficiency and low latency are critical.
