The QSFP56 200G SR4 Fiber Optic Module supports 200GE links and up to two 100GBASE-SR2 breakout links or four 50GBASE-SR lengths of up to 100m over OM4 MMF.
The module has four pairs of Multi-Mode Fiber with an MPO-12 UPC connector. It is compliant to the IEEE 802.3bm protocol and 200GAUI-4/CEI-56G-VSR-PAM4 standards.
The 200 Gigabit Ethernet signal is carried over four parallel pairs of fibers at a nominal wavelength of 850nm at 50Gbps per fiber. It can also be used as 2x100GE breakout to 100GBASE-SR2 modules. FEC is performed on the host platform.
The QSFP56 200G SR4 fiber optic transceivers are high performance, cost effective I/O solutions for LAN, HPC and SAN. The high-speed transceivers meet and exceed 200G Ethernet, InfiniBand HDR and temperature requirements for performance and reliability. The transceivers are compliant with SFF-8636 specifications and provide connectivity between devices using QSFP56 ports.
