Key specifications

How to use

Insert the QSFP28 transceiver into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or other network device following the vendor's hot-swap procedure. Use LC duplex multimode fiber patch cords to connect to the remote transceiver, ensuring correct polarity for bidirectional operation. Verify link status and use the module's digital diagnostics interface (if supported by the host) to monitor supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit/receive power and temperature. Ensure the host device firmware or driver supports third-party QSFP28 modules if required.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use high-quality multimode fiber and LC patch cords, maintain clean connector end-faces, and verify that the host hardware supports DDM/DOM to take advantage of real-time diagnostics. Match fiber type (OM3/OM4) and cable plan to achieve the specified 100 m reach and follow equipment vendor guidelines for compatibility and firmware settings.
