Frequently Asked Questions
What is 100GBase DWDM and why do I need it?
100GBase DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) enables multiple 100G signals to travel simultaneously over a single fiber strand at different wavelengths. This QSFP28 100GBase-DWDM module maximizes fiber utilization and reduces infrastructure costs in high-capacity networks, making it essential for data centers and long-distance optical links.
How far can this QSFP28 transceiver transmit?
The AddOn 100GBase DWDM transceiver supports up to 80 km transmission over single-mode fiber when used with EDFA (Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier) and DCM (Dispersion Compensation Module) equipment. This extended reach makes it suitable for metropolitan and regional network deployments.
Is this transceiver compatible with my network equipment?
Yes, this QSFP28 module is certified compatible with Cisco and Juniper Networks platforms. The standard LC connector and PAM4 modulation ensure interoperability with most modern optical networking equipment supporting 100GBase-DWDM standards.
What does DOM monitoring provide?
Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM) on this 100GBase-DWDM QSFP28 transceiver enables real-time tracking of optical power levels, temperature, and voltage. This allows network administrators to proactively monitor link health and troubleshoot issues before they impact service availability.
