- 40Gb Ethernet
- OTN OTU3 at 43.01G and OTU3e2 at 44.58G
- Breakout to 4 x 10GBASE-SR Ethernet
- InfiniBand DDR, QDR and FDR-10 interconnects
Key features
- Four independent full duplex channels
- Up to 11.32Gbps per channel
- 850nm VCSEL array transmitter
- MPO-12 receptacle
- Hot pluggable
Compatibility and selection
Send the host manufacturer, model, software version and port configuration so we can confirm the appropriate coding before you order. A matching module slot alone does not establish compatibility.
Match the fiber type, connector, wavelength and optic at the other end of the link. Check the host line rate and any FEC or breakout configuration. Patch panels, connectors and fiber condition affect the usable optical link budget.
Diagnostics and monitoring
The module supports DDM, SFF-8436 / SFF-8636. A compatible host can read module temperature, voltage, laser bias and optical power values to support troubleshooting. Confirm host access to these diagnostics during qualification.
What to include in your enquiry
- Part number, quantity and required delivery date.
- Delivery location and any qualification or test report requirements.
- Fiber type, link length, far end optic and any FEC or breakout requirements.
- Host model, software version, port mode and expected module case temperature.
We confirm the selected configuration, volume pricing and delivery in the quotation. Ask us to confirm the lead time for your quantity and destination.
Warranty and returns
Aerless warranty is up to 3 years, depending on the product. Ask us to confirm the warranty duration and coverage for this part in your quotation.
