Description

The Arista QSFP-100G-SWDM4 is a 100Gbps QSFP28 optical transceiver using Short Wavelength Division Multiplexing (SWDM4) technology to deliver full 100G connectivity over standard duplex multi-mode fibre. Transmitting across four 25Gbps wavelengths (850–940nm) on a single LC duplex connection, it supports link distances of up to 70m over OM3 or 100m over OM4 MMF — making it the ideal solution for data centre and campus upgrades where existing duplex fibre infrastructure is already in place.

Based on the SWDM-MSA industry standard, this transceiver is fully interoperable with other compliant 100G SWDM4 devices and eliminates the need for costly parallel multi-mode fibre cabling. It supports Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) for real-time diagnostics, draws no more than 3.5W, and is hot-pluggable and QSFP28 MSA and IEEE 802.3bm compliant. Compatible with all Arista QSFP 100G ports, it provides a seamless migration path from duplex 10G/40G deployments. In stock and ready to ship from iptrading.com.au — order now for fast dispatch.

Features

- Eliminates the need for expensive parallel multi-mode fibre infrastructure — works over standard duplex LC cabling

FAQs

Q: What fibre type and maximum distance does the QSFP-100G-SWDM4 support?
A: The QSFP-100G-SWDM4 operates over duplex multi-mode fibre (MMF) with LC connectors, supporting link distances of up to 70 metres over OM3 fibre and up to 100 metres over OM4 fibre.

Q: Do I need to replace my existing duplex fibre cabling to use this transceiver?
A: No. The QSFP-100G-SWDM4 is specifically designed to work with your existing duplex LC-terminated OM3 or OM4 fibre plant. This makes it a cost-effective 100G upgrade without the need to re-cable with parallel MPO/MTP infrastructure.

Q: Which Arista switches and platforms are compatible with this transceiver?
A: The QSFP-100G-SWDM4 is supported on all Arista platforms with QSFP 100G ports, including the 7050X, 7060X, 7260X, and 7300X series switches. Always verify compatibility with the specific Arista EOS version and hardware in use.

Q: Is this transceiver interoperable with non-Arista equipment?
A: Yes. The transceiver is based on the SWDM-MSA industry standard and is compliant with IEEE 802.3bm, making it interoperable with other SWDM4-compliant 100G equipment from third-party vendors.

Q: Does the QSFP-100G-SWDM4 support Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM)?
A: Yes. It supports DOM, allowing network administrators to monitor real-time optical parameters such as transmit/receive power, temperature, and voltage directly through the switch management interface.

Q: Can I purchase the Arista QSFP-100G-SWDM4 in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading stocks the QSFP-100G-SWDM4 and ships Australia-wide. Orders placed through iptrading.com.au are dispatched promptly, making it easy for Australian businesses to source genuine Arista optics without long lead times.
