Description

This Arista 400GBASE-ZR transceiver is a software-tunable coherent DWDM module in the QSFP-DD form factor, compliant with OIF-400ZR. It is built for point-to-point Data Center Interconnect over dark fibre, letting a router or switch carry IP over DWDM directly from a 400G QSFP-DD port instead of relying on dedicated optical transport hardware.

The module carries 400G on a single wavelength using DP-16QAM coherent modulation over duplex LC single-mode fibre (G.652). It tunes across the C-band from 191.300 to 196.100 THz on 100GHz and 75GHz grids, with transmit power above -10 dBm and a receive range of -16 to 0 dBm. Amplified reach is up to 120km, with a maximum span loss of 25 dB. Power draw is 16 W typical and 20 W maximum. Management and telemetry run through native Arista EOS, including pre and post-FEC BER, OSNR, chromatic dispersion, PMD and DGD reporting.

It pairs with Arista OSFP-AMP-ZR and QSFP-AMP-ZR pluggable amplifiers and the CAB-LC8-CS coupler-splitter for high-capacity links without an external line system. Supported on specific Arista platforms only, so check the Arista Transceiver and Cable Guide for your switch.

FAQs

Q: Does this transceiver need a separate licence?
A: No separate licence is stated for the module. Management and telemetry are handled through native Arista EOS.

Q: How much power does it draw?
A: It draws 16 W typical and 20 W maximum from the host QSFP-DD port, so confirm your platform can supply this per-port power.

Q: What is needed to reach 120km?
A: The 120km figure is an amplified reach over G.652 single-mode fibre. It is achieved with Arista OSFP-AMP-ZR or QSFP-AMP-ZR pluggable amplifiers and the CAB-LC8-CS coupler-splitter.

Q: Which platforms does it work with?
A: It is supported on specific Arista platforms only. Check the Arista Transceiver and Cable Guide for your switch or router model before ordering.

Q: How does it differ from the OSFP version?
A: The OSFP-400G-ZR has the same optical specifications but uses the OSFP form factor. This SKU is the QSFP-DD version, so match it to your port type.
