Applications
In 400G Ethernet data centers, HPC and machine learning clusters, the Arista Compatible 400G OSFP VSR4 Optical Transceiver delivers 400Gbps transmission over MMF with a reach of 30m@OM3/50m@OM4 or OM5. The MPO-12/APC interface and 850nm optics match the standard cabling plant used in modern data halls, so existing trunks can be reused. Compatibility with Arista Networks systems is verified in our own test lab before shipment, so the unit works out of the box as an equivalent of OSFP-400G-VSR4. The link runs 8x50G-PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 400G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the Arista Networks part OSFP-400G-VSR4 and works in Arista Networks systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers CMIS 5.2, IEEE 802.3bs-400GAUI-8, OSFP MSA, IEEE 802.3 db-400GBASE-VR4.
Ordering Information
Our part number for this module is OSFP-VSR4-400G. When ordering, just let us know the quantity and whether you need the compatibility coding for a particular switch brand; labeling and packaging can also follow your channel requirements.
Worldwide Delivery
We ship to customers around the world every week. Express couriers handle most orders door to door in a few days; larger consignments go by air or sea to keep freight costs down. Tracking information is provided for every shipment, and we are flexible on shipping accounts and forwarders.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
Packaging
Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.
Built to Your Spec
Our product line has grown with the industry for three decades, from GBIC-era modules to today's 800G and 1.6T interconnects. If the exact configuration you need is not listed, we can usually build it: custom lengths, mixed connector breakouts, OEM branding and project-specific firmware coding are all supported.
