Dell Force10 GP-QSFP-40GE-PSM4 Compatible QSFP+ 40GBase-PLR4 10KM 1310nm MPO Connector SMF DOM MSA Compliant

• Product Overview

QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) is a new Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) for high speed application, such as 40G-BASE, which provide four channels of data in one pluggable interface. Each channel is capable of transferring data at 10Gbps and supports a total of 40Gbps.

The 40Gbps QSFP+ transceiver combines the higher density attractions of parallel modules with some of the key advantages normally associated with SFP+ based modules. It is intended for use short reach applications in switches, routers and data center equipment where it provides higher density and lower cost when compared with standard SFP+ modules.

Support for multimode and single-mode fiber, Interoperable with major switch vendors. Fully compliant with Ethernet, Fibre Channel and SONET/SDH/OTN standards For distances ranging from very-short reach within a data center to campus, metro and long-haul, Enhanced digital diagnostic information.

Achieve instant fiber connectivity and connect your network to different fiber distances and types at rapid data rates.
