Description

This is the Arista Enhanced Performance (E-Series) 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 transceiver, built for latency-sensitive 100G Ethernet links over parallel multimode fibre. It suits data centres and trading or financial environments where removing FEC latency matters, as well as short-reach multimode connections between Arista switches.

The module uses four 25G NRZ lanes at 850nm with a standard MPO-12 UPC connector. Without FEC it reaches 30m over OM3 and 50m over OM4, which keeps link latency low. With FEC enabled the reach extends to 70m over OM3 and 100m over OM4. Maximum module power is 3.5W, and the operating case temperature range is 0 to 70 C. No licence or subscription is required.

It fits Arista switches with QSFP100 or QSFP28 ports running EOS 4.32.0 or later, and links to standard 100GBASE-SR4 optics over MPO-12 parallel multimode fibre. FEC must be enabled on a link if the far end is not an E-Series SR4 module or if the distance exceeds the no-FEC limits.

Enquire with XS Network Tech for new or used pricing and availability.

FAQs

Q: Does this transceiver need a licence or subscription?
A: No. No licence or subscription is required for this module.

Q: What is the maximum reach with and without FEC?
A: Without FEC it reaches 30m over OM3 and 50m over OM4. With FEC enabled it reaches 70m over OM3 and 100m over OM4.

Q: How much power does it draw?
A: Maximum module power is 3.5W, drawn from the host QSFP port.

Q: Which switches and software does it work with?
A: It fits Arista switches with QSFP100 or QSFP28 ports and needs EOS 4.32.0 or later. The link partner must be 100GBASE-SR4 over MPO-12 parallel multimode fibre.

Q: How does the E-Series differ from a standard SR4 module?
A: The E-Series has enhanced optical performance that allows links without FEC, which removes FEC latency. FEC must be enabled if the far end is a non-E-Series SR4 module or the distance exceeds the no-FEC limits.
