QSFP+ Pluggable, Parallel Fiber-Optics Module
for 40 Gb Ethernet and InfiniBand Applications
Data Sheet
Description
The Avago Technologies AFBR-79EQPZ is a Four-Channel,
Pluggable, Parallel, Fiber-Optic QSFP+ Transceiver with an
integrated push-pull tab for 40 Gigabit Ethernet (40GbE)
application. This transceiver is a high performance module
for short-range multi-lane data communication and inter-
connect applications. It integrates four data lanes in each
direction with 40 Gbps aggregate bandwidth. Each lane
can operate at 10.3125 Gbps up to 100 m using OM3 fiber
or 150 m using OM4 fiber. These modules support 4 x 10G
InfiniBand (IB) quadruple data rate (40G-IB-QDR) applica-
tions and are backwards compatible to the 4 x 5G IB dual
data rate (20G-IB-DDR) and 4 x 2.5G IB single data rate
(10G-IB-SDR) applications as well. The push-pull tab facili-
tates the insertion and extraction of these transceivers in
such high density environment.
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 connec-
tor. 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. The integrated push-pull tab facilitates the
insertion and extraction of these modules in all applica-
tions.
