400GBASE-SR4 QSFP-DD 850nm 100m DOM MPO-12/APC MMF Optical Transceiver Module
The 400G QSFP-DD SR4 optical transceiver is engineered to meet the most demanding requirements of today’s hyperscale cloud and enterprise data centers. Featuring the double-density QSFP-DD form factor, this module packs eight 50 Gbps electrical lanes into a single interface, delivering a full 400 Gbps of bidirectional throughput. Using 850 nm VCSEL lasers and MPO-16 connectors over OM3/OM4 multimode fiber, it supports reliable, low-latency links of up to 70 m on OM3 and 100 m on OM4—ideal for top-of-rack (ToR) uplinks, spine-leaf fabrics, and high-performance computing (HPC) clusters.
Certified to IEEE 802.3bs and CMIS standards and tested for interoperability with leading switch vendors—including Cisco®, Arista®, Juniper®, HPE®, and Dell EMC®—the Fibrecross 400G QSFP-DD SR4 delivers effortless plug-and-play deployment in mixed-vendor environments.

FAQ About 400G QSFP-DD SR4 Optical Transceiver
Fibrecross 400G QSFP-DD SR4 Optical transceivers are rigorously tested for compatibility with major switch and router brands, including Cisco®, Arista®, Juniper®, HPE®, and Dell EMC®. Compliant with IEEE 802.3bs and CMIS standards, they ensure plug-and-play operation across multi-vendor networks.
QSFP-DD (Double Density) provides 8 electrical lanes at 50 Gbps each (total 400 Gbps), while QSFP56 uses 4 lanes at 100 Gbps each. QSFP-DD modules double port density compared to QSFP56.
To ensure plug-and-play interoperability, confirm that your switch firmware supports IEEE 802.3bs and CMIS. Fibrecross QSFP-DD SR4 modules undergo interoperability testing with Cisco Nexus, Arista 7060, and other leading switch platforms.
The 400G QSFP-DD SR4 supports up to 70 m over OM3 and up to 100 m over OM4 multimode fiber, making it a versatile short-reach solution for ToR uplinks and spine-leaf fabrics.
Always use an MPO-16–specific cleaning tool and a lint-free wipe with 99% isopropyl alcohol. Regular cleaning of the connector endface prevents insertion loss and maintains optimal performance of your 400G SR4 fiber links.
