QSFP+ 40G IR4 Optical Transceiver Modules
40GBASE-IR4 over Singlemode Fibre

Complete Connect offers hot pluggable QSFP+ 40GBASE-IR4 transceiver. It has been designed for use in 40 Gigabit Ethernet links over singlemode (9/125) fibre. The transmitter DFB array converts 4 inputs channels 10Gbps of electrical data to 4 CWDM optical signals and multiplexes them into a single channel for 40Gbps of optical transmission.
The IR4 40G transceiver receiver de-multiplexes the 40Gbps input into 4 CWDM signals and converts them to 4 channels of output electrical data. The central wavelengths of the 4 CWDM channels are 1271nm, 1291nm, 1311nm and 1331nm as CWDM wavelength grid defined in ITU-T G694.2.
Digital diagnostics functions are available via an I2C interface and are RoHS compliant and lead free across all IR4 40G transceivers.
Complete Connect’s QSFP+ 40GBASE-IR4 Quad Small Form Factor Pluggable transceivers are compliant with SFF-8431, SFF-8432 and IEEE 802.3 aq 10GBASE-SR.
These QSFP+ transceivers are for use in 40-Gigabit Ethernet links up to 400m over Multimode fibre. The transceiver is RoHS compliant and lead-free per Directive 2011/65/EU.

All our transceivers are coded with the correct EEPROM (electrically erasable programmable read-only memory) to match your manufacturers codes. Not all manufacturers require a code, only the ones that try to tie you into buying their optics at inflated prices. Complete Connect have a professional team who are able to engineer code and new firmware releases from manufacturers to ensure we offer up to date compatibility with all major OEM, switch, router and storage device vendors.
