Description

The Arista QSFP-100G-ERL41 is a 100GBASE-ERL4 QSFP28 optical transceiver designed for long-reach 100Gbps connectivity over duplex single-mode fibre. Delivering reliable transmission across 30km (without FEC) to 40km (with host FEC), it is ideal for enterprise data centre interconnects, campus backbone links, and metro network deployments requiring extended reach without external amplification. Four LAN-WDM wavelengths are multiplexed into a single duplex LC channel using EML transmitters and APD receivers for superior sensitivity and signal integrity.

The module is fully QSFP28 MSA compliant and hot-swappable, with Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) providing real-time visibility into TX/RX optical power, laser bias current, temperature, and supply voltage. Supported from Arista EOS 4.20.1 onwards, it integrates seamlessly into Arista switching and routing platforms, and is interoperable with third-party 100G ERL4/ER4L transceivers meeting the same standard.

FAQs

Q: What is the maximum reach of the Arista QSFP-100G-ERL41 transceiver?
A: The QSFP-100G-ERL41 supports up to 30km over duplex single-mode fibre without Forward Error Correction (FEC), and up to 40km when host FEC is enabled on the connected switch or router port.

Q: What fibre type and connector does this transceiver require?
A: This transceiver requires duplex single-mode fibre (SMF) and uses a duplex LC connector. It is not compatible with multimode fibre.

Q: Is the QSFP-100G-ERL41 compatible with non-Arista switches?
A: The module is QSFP28 MSA compliant and is interoperable with third-party 100G ERL4/ER4L transceivers and platforms that support the same standard. Compatibility should be verified against the specific third-party platform's approved optics list.

Q: Does this transceiver support Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM)?
A: Yes. The QSFP-100G-ERL41 supports DDM/DOM, providing real-time monitoring of TX and RX optical power levels, laser bias current, module temperature, and supply voltage — enabling proactive network health monitoring.

Q: Is optical attenuation required when using this transceiver on short links?
A: Yes. Because this module is optimised for 30–40km reach, using it on very short links may overdrive the receiver. Optical attenuators should be inserted to bring received power within the specified input range and prevent damage.

Q: Can I purchase the Arista QSFP-100G-ERL41 in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. The Arista QSFP-100G-ERL41 is available from iptrading.com.au. IP Trading is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller supplying authentic Arista transceivers with reliable service and local support.
