Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between QSFP28 and other transceiver form factors?
The QSFP28 form factor is specifically designed for 100Gb/s applications and offers superior port density compared to older SFP+ modules. This QSFP-100G-CSR-S transceiver leverages the QSFP28 standard to enable more 100G ports in the same physical switch space, making it ideal for high-density data center environments requiring maximum throughput in compact architectures.
Is this 100GBASE-SWDM4 transceiver compatible with Cisco equipment?
Yes, the ENET QSFP-100G-CSR-S is fully Cisco-compatible and functions identically to Cisco-branded 100GBASE-SWDM4 modules. This compatibility ensures seamless integration with Cisco Nexus switches and other Cisco networking platforms without requiring firmware updates or configuration changes, while delivering significant cost savings over OEM alternatives.
What multimode fiber distances does this QSFP28 transceiver support?
The QSFP-100G-CSR-S supports three distance options depending on fiber grade: 75 meters over OM3 multimode fiber, 100 meters over OM4, and 150 meters over OM5. This flexibility allows network architects to optimize 100Gb/s connectivity across various campus and data center distances using existing multimode fiber infrastructure.
Why choose a TAA compliant 100GBASE-SWDM4 transceiver?
TAA compliance is essential for government, federal, and enterprise procurement requirements. This ENET QSFP-100G-CSR-S transceiver meets Trade Agreements Act standards, making it eligible for restricted bidding processes while maintaining full 100Gb/s performance and Cisco compatibility at a fraction of premium OEM pricing.
