Applications
Network architects choose the Cisco Compatible 800G QSFP-DD QDD 2FR4 Optical Transceiver for 800G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments: it runs 850Gbps (8x 106.25Gbps) over SMF and reaches 2km. With its Dual Duplex LC/UPC optical interface, the module works directly with the SMF infrastructure already installed in most facilities. For networks standardized on Cisco hardware, it is a drop-in equivalent of the QDD-2X400G-FR4. The link runs 8x100G-PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 800G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: IEEE 802.3cu-2021, IEEE 802.3ck-2022, QSFP-DD MSA HW Rev 6.01, CMIS Rev 5.0. For projects standardized on Cisco hardware, this product replaces the QDD-2X400G-FR4 directly, with identical fit and function. Every unit's EEPROM coding and link behavior are verified on real host equipment in our lab, so what arrives at your site is ready to use.
Ordering Information
Our part number for this module is QDD-2FR4-800G. 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.
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.
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.
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 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.
