Introduction

The Cisco 100GBASE Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable (QSFP) portfolio offers customers a wide variety of high-density and low-power 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options for data center, high-performance computing networks, enterprise core and distribution layers, and service provider applications. The QSFP-100G modules are our latest generation of 100G transceiver modules solution based on a QSFP form factor.

Cisco QSFP-100G-FR-S
The Cisco QSFP-100G-FR-S Module supports link lengths of up to 2 km over a standard pair of G.652 Single-Mode Fiber (SMF) with duplex LC connectors. The 100 Gigabit Ethernet signal is carried over a single wavelength using onboard PAM4 modulation and FEC. QSFP-100G-FR-S can also be used in applications meant for IEEE 100GBASE-DR, such as interoperability with IEEE 400GBASE-DR4 via fiber break-out cables.
