Description

The QSFP-40G-LR4-S-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Cisco QSFP-40G-LR4-S. This S-Class transceiver operates as a plug-and-play module in Cisco QSFP+ ports, delivering 40 Gigabit Ethernet over single-mode fiber at distances up to 10km. - IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-LR4 compliance guarantees interoperability with standards-based 40G Ethernet infrastructure - QSFP+ form factor with duplex LC connectors, 40 Gbps data rate, four CWDM wavelengths (1271nm, 1291nm, 1311nm, 1331nm), G.652 single-mode fiber, 10km reach - Digital optical monitoring (DOM) support provides real-time access to temperature, voltage, optical power, and other operating parameters via I2C interface - Four-lane architecture using wavelength division multiplexing manages 10 Gbps per lane over a single duplex fiber pair - Hot-swappable design allows installation and removal without interrupting host equipment operation - Supports 40GBASE Ethernet rate only, does not support FCoE or 4x10G breakout modes

Features

• IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-LR4 compliance ensures standards-based interoperability across multi-vendor 40G Ethernet platforms without vendor lock-in
• Four-lane CWDM architecture multiplexes and demultiplexes four independent 10 Gbps optical channels internally, eliminating the need for external MUX/DEMUX components
• Duplex LC connector simplifies fibre infrastructure compared to parallel optics, enabling migration from existing 10G single-mode cabling to 40G without rewiring
• Digital diagnostics monitoring via I2C interface enables proactive link health monitoring and fault isolation through SNMP network management tools
• S-Class designation indicates support for 40GBASE Ethernet rate only with optimised thermal and power profile for Cisco enterprise switching environments
• Hot-swappable QSFP+ form factor supports field installation and replacement without powering down host equipment or disrupting adjacent ports
• 3.5W maximum power consumption and 0°C to 70°C operating range suit standard data centre and enterprise networking environments

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Cisco QSFP-40G-LR4-S?
A: Yes. The QSFP-40G-LR4-S-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Cisco QSFP-40G-LR4-S. It conforms to the same IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-LR4 standard, uses the same QSFP+ form factor, and operates at the same 40 Gbps data rate over single-mode fiber to 10km. It is plug-and-play compatible with Cisco QSFP+ ports and requires no configuration changes.

Q: Which Cisco platforms support this transceiver?
A: This transceiver is compatible with Cisco platforms that feature QSFP+ ports and support IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-LR4. Compatibility depends on the switch or router having a standards-compliant QSFP+ interface rather than specific model numbers. Verify your platform supports 40GBASE-LR4 via QSFP+ before deployment.

Q: What fiber type and connector configuration does this module require?
A: This module requires G.652 single-mode fiber with duplex LC connectors. It uses four CWDM wavelengths (1271nm, 1291nm, 1311nm, 1331nm) internally multiplexed over a single fiber pair. It does not support multimode fiber or parallel optics configurations. Minimum link distance is 2 meters per IEEE 802.3 specifications.

Q: Does this module support 4x10G breakout mode or OTU3?
A: No. The QSFP-40G-LR4-S-BCC is an S-Class module that supports 40GBASE Ethernet rate only. It does not support 4x10G breakout connectivity, OTU3, FCoE, or other non-Ethernet protocols. If your application requires 4x10G breakout over single-mode fiber, consider a QSFP-4X10G-LR-S compatible module instead.

Q: What DOM parameters can I monitor with this transceiver?
A: The module provides real-time digital optical monitoring via the I2C interface as specified by QSFP+ MSA. Accessible parameters include transmit and receive optical power for each of the four lanes, module temperature, supply voltage, and laser bias current. These can be queried through CLI or SNMP on compatible platforms for proactive link budget and fault analysis.
