QSFP+ eSR4 Pluggable, Parallel Fiber-Optics Module
for 40 Gb and 10 Gb Ethernet Applications
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The Avago Technologies AFBR-79EEPZ is a Four-Channel,
Pluggable, Parallel, Fiber-Optic QSFP+ Transceiver with in-
tegrated push-pull tab for 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE) ap-
plications with extended reach up to 300m (400m) using
OM3 (OM4) multimode fiber (MMF) and with added capa-
bility of inter-operating with IEEE 10GBASE-SR compliant
products. This transceiver is a high performance module
for short-range multi-lane data communication and in-
terconnect applications. It integrates four data lanes
in each direction with each lane operating at 10.3125
Gbps, giving an aggregated bandwidth of 40 Gbps. This
transceiver can also be used for high density 10 gigabit
Ethernet applications. It allows optical interoperability
up to 300m (400m) using OM3 (OM4) MMF with any 10
gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) transceivers, compliant to the
IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-SR specifications, of form factors
such as SFP+, XFP and X2. It provides an effective port
count of over 100 within 1 RU rack. The push-pull tab fa-
cilitates the insertion and extraction of these transceiv-
ers in such high density environment. This transceiver
is designated as a QSFP+ eSR4 solution, where the letter
"e" represents extended reach beyond 100m MMF with
interoperability between this QSFP+ transceiver and any
IEEE 10GBASE-SR compliant modules.
These modules are designed to operate over multimode
fiber systems using a nominal wavelength of 850nm. The
electrical interface uses a 38 contact edge type connector.
The optical interface uses an 8 or 12 fiber MTP® (MPO)
connector. This module incorporates Avago Technolo-
gies proven integrated circuit and VCSEL technology to
provide reliable long life, high performance, and consis-
tent service.
