FAQs

Q: What is the maximum transmission distance for the QDD-400G-ZR2?
A: The transceiver supports up to 40km unamplified transmission and up to 120km with optical amplification (EDFA) over single-mode fiber. It requires DWDM Mux/Demux equipment for wavelength multiplexing in multi-span deployments.

Q: Is this transceiver compatible with other vendor 400ZR modules?
A: Yes, the QDD-400G-ZR2 complies with OIF 400ZR standards, enabling multi-vendor interoperability with other standard-compliant 400G ZR coherent modules. It supports standard C-FEC and operates on ITU-T grid frequencies for seamless integration.

Q: What platforms support the Arista QDD-400G-ZR2 transceiver?
A: This module is supported on specific Arista platforms with QSFP-DD ports capable of handling coherent optics. Consult Arista's Transceiver and Cable Compatibility Guide and the 400ZR DCI Solution documentation for platform-specific requirements and validated configurations.

Q: Can this module operate in breakout mode?
A: The 400ZR coherent transceiver is designed for native 400G operation and does not support traditional breakout configurations. It provides a single 400GbE interface optimized for long-haul data center interconnect applications.

Q: What are the power and cooling requirements?
A: The module consumes approximately 18W maximum and requires adequate host system cooling. It is classified as Power Class 8 under QSFP-DD specifications and will power up in Low Power Mode if LPMode is asserted during hot-plug or power cycle events.
