100G optical module CWDM and LR
QSFP28 100G LR4, psm4, and cwdm4 optics provide solutions towards your diverse optical link lengths. Which one is better generally depends on your demand link length, link power consumption, optical cable structure, budget, etc. QSFPTEK provides a wide range of original brands (Cisco, Juniper, Arista, Intel, Mellanox, Huawei, etc) compatible 100G o. Not as far as QSFP28 LR4 transmit distance, 100G CWDM4 reaches about 2 kilometers distance over single-mode fiber with duplex LC connectors, neither too long nor too short. They are able to be applied in various 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity situations like data centers, large-scale cloud, high-performance computing networks, enterprise core and distribution layers. Features with QSFP28 Form FactorSecondly, they feature the QSFP28 (Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable) form factor, which is the smallest and most popular form factor of 100G. The development of 100G form factor has experienced from CFP, CFP2, CFP4 to QSFP28. Both 100G PSM4 and CWDM4 are designed for middle/ short-range 100G high-speed communication.
