Questions & Answers

QSFP-100G-ERL: Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the QSFP-100G-ERL optical transceiver used for?

A: The QSFP-100G-ERL is a 100G QSFP28 optical transceiver designed for high-speed network connectivity over extended distances. It uses 1310nm PAM4 modulation and is intended for compatible switches, routers, and other networking equipment. The supported transmission distance and optical link requirements depend on the specific module specifications and deployment conditions.

Q: What modulation technology does the QSFP-100G-ERL use?

A: The QSFP-100G-ERL uses PAM4 (Pulse Amplitude Modulation with four levels) at a nominal wavelength of 1310nm. PAM4 encodes two bits per symbol, enabling higher data rates within a given signaling bandwidth than conventional NRZ modulation. This technology supports high-speed optical transmission in modern data center and networking applications.

Q: What is the benefit of a single-lane 100G data path?

A: A single-lane 100G data path carries 100Gb/s of aggregate data over one high-speed electrical or optical lane, depending on the interface design. This architecture aligns with the development of single-lane 100G interfaces, including SFP112, and can simplify future network migration. However, QSFP28 and SFP112 use different form factors and interface specifications, so direct compatibility should not be assumed.

Q: Does the QSFP-100G-ERL support Digital Diagnostic Monitoring?

A: Yes. The QSFP-100G-ERL supports Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM), allowing compatible host equipment to access supported operating parameters, such as module temperature, supply voltage, and optical transmit and receive power. Available monitoring functions depend on the module implementation and host system.

Q: How can I check whether the QSFP-100G-ERL is compatible with my equipment?

A: Check the switch, router, or network adapter model, firmware version, supported QSFP28 specifications, and required optical link parameters before purchasing. SFPPlaza provides professional compatibility and parameter test reports to help customers verify suitability for their target networking platforms.

Q: What warranty and technical support are available for the QSFP-100G-ERL?

A: SFPPlaza offers a 30-day free return policy, 1-year free replacement, a 3-year warranty, and lifetime after-sales technical support, subject to the applicable terms and conditions.
