Applications
Built for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, this QSFP-DD module carries 425Gbps over SMF up to 10km per link. Digital diagnostics report transmit power, receive power and temperature in real time, which simplifies commissioning and ongoing maintenance. For networks standardized on Cisco hardware, it is a drop-in equivalent of the QDD-400G-LR8-S. The link runs 8x50G-PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 400G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with IEEE 802.3bs, QSFP-DD MSA, CMIS 4.1. It is interoperable with Cisco equipment and serves as a direct equivalent to the Cisco part number QDD-400G-LR8-S.
Ordering Information
Order this product as QDD-LR8-400G. Common models are stocked for fast dispatch. We can supply the module with neutral or customer-branded labels, and compatibility coding for a specific equipment vendor can be added at no extra process step.
Customization Service
Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard products are held in stock and usually ship within one to three working days. We dispatch worldwide by DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS, and for bulk orders we arrange air or sea freight. Shipments can also be sent collect on your own courier account or delivered to your freight forwarder.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Packing Details
Standard packing is an anti-static bag plus blister protection, with cartons sized to keep products from moving in transit. We apply our standard labels by default; neutral packing or customer-branded labels, part number stickers and serial barcodes are all available on request.
