Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 100GBASE-ER4 QSFP28 transceiver used for?
The 100GBASE-ER4 QSFP28 transceiver is designed for high-speed data center interconnects, campus backbone networks, and long-distance Ethernet links requiring 100Gb connectivity. The 40km reach makes it ideal for metropolitan area networks (MANs) and extended campus deployments where single-mode fiber infrastructure is available.
Is this Axiom transceiver compatible with Fortinet equipment?
Yes. The Axiom 100GBASE-ER4 QSFP28 is Fortinet compatible and comes pre-configured with application-specific code ensuring 100% compatibility with Fortinet network devices. This eliminates compatibility concerns and enables immediate deployment in Fortinet environments.
What fiber type does this QSFP28 module require?
This module operates over single-mode fiber (SMF) with LC duplex connectors. Single-mode fiber enables the extended 40km reach and is the standard for long-distance optical communications in enterprise networks.
Can I hot-swap this transceiver in my network?
Yes. The QSFP28 form factor supports hot-pluggable operation, allowing you to install, remove, or replace the transceiver without powering down your equipment. This enables non-disruptive network maintenance and upgrades.
