Key Features & Benefits
-
Single-Fiber 40G Technology: Uses BiDi (Bidirectional) optics to transmit and receive data over one fiber (OM3/OM4), cutting fiber infrastructure costs by 50%.
-
Cisco OEM Certified: Guaranteed compatibility with Cisco switches/routers (e.g., Nexus 9000, Catalyst 3850) for seamless integration.
-
High-Speed & Low Latency: Supports 40Gbps Ethernet (40GBASE-SR-BD) with a reach of 100m (OM3) / 150m (OM4).
-
Hot-Swappable & Plug-and-Play: Easy installation without network downtime.
-
Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM): Real-time monitoring of temperature, voltage, and optical power for proactive maintenance.
-
Energy Efficient: Optimized for low power consumption in high-density deployments.
Applications
-
Data center spine-leaf architectures and ToR (Top-of-Rack) switching.
-
40G network upgrades without replacing existing fiber cabling.
-
High-bandwidth applications like cloud computing, virtualization, and storage.
