Description

The Aruba Q9G82A is a 40G QSFP+ ER4 transceiver designed for long-reach 40 Gigabit Ethernet links over single-mode fibre. It supports distances of up to 40 km and connects through a duplex LC connector, making it well suited to data centre interconnects and campus aggregation links that span long fibre runs.

This 40GBASE-ER4 optic operates in the 1310 nm band using four lanes, and fits QSFP+ ports on compatible switches. Choose the ER4 variant when your fibre path exceeds the reach of shorter 40G optics and you need to stay on standard single-mode LC cabling.

Features

- Long-reach 40G connectivity for data centre and campus aggregation links
- Single-mode fibre support up to 40 km
- Duplex LC connector for standard single-mode cabling
- 40GBASE-ER4 standard for interoperable 40G Ethernet optics

FAQs

Q: What fibre type does the Q9G82A require?
A: It is designed for single-mode fibre (SMF) with a duplex LC connector, supporting distances of up to 40 km.

Q: What is the difference between ER4 and LR4 40G optics?
A: Both are 40G QSFP+ single-mode optics, but ER4 is built for much longer reach, up to 40 km, whereas LR4 optics cover shorter distances. Choose ER4 when your fibre run is long.

Q: Which port type does this transceiver fit?
A: It fits QSFP+ ports on compatible switches and routers that support 40GBASE-ER4 optics. Check your platform's supported optics list before ordering.

Q: What connector does the Q9G82A use?
A: It uses a duplex LC connector, so it works with standard duplex LC single-mode patch cables.

Q: What wavelength does it operate on?
A: It operates in the 1310 nm band across four lanes, approximately 1271 to 1331 nm, as defined for 40GBASE-ER4.

Q: Where would I typically use a 40km 40G optic?
A: Typical uses include long data centre interconnects, campus aggregation links and metro-scale 40G connections where shorter-reach optics cannot span the distance.
