Applications
In 100G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks, the 100G QSFP28 ER4L 4x 25G NRZ QSFP-100G-ER4L-S 1310nm 40km Duplex LC/UPC Module, Cisco delivers 103.125Gbps (4x 25.78Gbps) transmission over SMF with a reach of 40km. The Duplex LC/UPC interface and 1310nm optics match the standard cabling plant used in modern data halls, so existing trunks can be reused. It is interoperable with Cisco platforms and replaces the Cisco part QSFP-100G-ER4L-S directly.
Standards and Compatibility
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the Cisco part QSFP-100G-ER4L-S and works in Cisco systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers QSFP28 MSA, SFF-8636, IEEE 802.3bm, CAUI-4.
Ordering Information
To order, quote QSFP-ER4L-100G together with your quantity. Stock items ship quickly; for OEM orders we support custom labels, retail packing and vendor-specific coding, all handled in our own factory.
Reliability Control
From incoming component inspection to final burn-in, quality is controlled at each step of production. Finished units are verified on real networking equipment in our compatibility lab, and test records are kept per batch so that any field question can be traced back quickly.
Package
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
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.
