Description

The Arista OSFP-8X25-MR-LR is a dual-rate 200G OSFP optical transceiver designed for high-speed data centre interconnects. Supporting both 8x 25GBASE-LR and 8x 10GBASE-LR configurations over parallel single-mode fibre up to 2km, this module offers flexible deployment options for 200G Ethernet links. With MPO-16 APC connectivity and NRZ modulation, it enables seamless breakout to legacy 100G QSFP and 25G SFP ports while delivering reliable performance in modern OSFP-capable switching platforms.

FAQs

Q: What network equipment is compatible with the OSFP-8X25-MR-LR?
A: This transceiver is designed for Arista switches with OSFP ports, including 400G-capable platforms like the 7800R3 and 7280R3 series. The OSFP port must be configured for 200G operation using 8x 25G NRZ electrical lanes to utilize this module.

Q: Can this transceiver break out to lower-speed ports?
A: Yes, the OSFP-8X25-MR-LR supports breakout configurations, allowing interoperability with legacy 100G QSFP-28 and 25G SFP28 ports using appropriate breakout cabling and switch configuration. Each of the 8 lanes can operate independently at 25G or 10G.

Q: What is the difference between 25GBASE-LR and 10GBASE-LR modes?
A: The transceiver is dual-rate capable: in 25GBASE-LR mode, it delivers 200G total bandwidth (8x 25G lanes) at up to 2km, while in 10GBASE-LR mode it provides 80G total bandwidth (8x 10G lanes) at the same distance. The switch port configuration determines the operating mode.

Q: What type of fibre cable is required?
A: This module requires parallel single-mode fibre (SMF) with an MPO-16 connector. The MPO-16 APC (Angled Physical Contact) interface provides low insertion loss and back reflection for reliable long-reach transmission over 8 parallel fibres.

Q: Is this transceiver suitable for data centre spine-leaf architectures?
A: Yes, the OSFP-8X25-MR-LR is ideal for data centre spine-leaf deployments requiring 200G connectivity over distances up to 2km between floors or buildings. Its dual-rate capability also supports gradual migration from 10G infrastructure to 25G per lane speeds.
