Compatible 40G QSFP+ Transceivers: SR4, LR4 and 4×10G

QSFP+ 40G transceiver options: SR4 (MPO), LR4 or 4×10G breakout, compatibility validated by port and firmware on 9 network platforms. Typical dispatch in 48h*.

What is a QSFP+ transceiver?

A QSFP+ 40G transceiver (40G QSFP+ module) is the four-lane optic for 40 Gbps (40GbE) links, defined by IEEE 802.3ba. It is the standard in uplinks and trunks in the data center and campus, and it can also operate as 4 links of 10G (4×10G breakout) to make better use of each port.

At EON Technology we offer them multivendor, with compatibility validated by model, firmware, port and optical part number, so they integrate into infrastructures from several manufacturers without depending on a single supplier.

40G QSFP+ modules: SR4, LR4 and BiDi

  • QSFP+ MPO — 40GBASE-SR4: multimode fiber with an MPO/MTP connector (8 fibers), short data center distances (~100–150 m). See the 40G QSFP+ MPO transceiver.
  • QSFP+ duplex (LC) — 40GBASE-LR4 and 40G QSFP BiDi: 4 multiplexed wavelengths over one single-mode fiber pair with a duplex LC connector, up to 10 km; the BiDi variant reuses existing duplex multimode fiber. See the 40G QSFP+ duplex transceiver.

Every part number includes DDM/DOM for real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature and voltage.

Why choose EON QSFP+ transceivers

  • Multivendor integration with validated compatibility; if your platform requires a specific profile, we adapt and validate compatibility through transceiver recoding with 90-day service coverage.
  • Significant savings compared with the original OEM module price, while keeping the optical performance.
  • 1- to 5-year product warranty and engineering support before and after purchase. EON serves Latin America and Spain from a centralized operation in Colombia.
  • Typical dispatch in 48h*. *Subject to inventory, destination country, carrier, customs, the customer’s import process and third-party logistics conditions.

Frequently asked questions

What is a 40G QSFP+ module?

The QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) is a four-lane transceiver for 40 Gbps (40GbE) links, under IEEE 802.3ba. It is hot-swappable and used in uplinks and trunks in data centers and campus networks.

What is the difference between QSFP+ SR4 (MPO) and LR4 (duplex)?

The 40GBASE-SR4 uses multimode fiber with an MPO/MTP connector (8 fibers: 4 Tx + 4 Rx) for short distances (~100–150 m). The 40GBASE-LR4 multiplexes 4 wavelengths over one pair of single-mode fibers with a duplex LC connector and reaches up to 10 km.

Can I split a QSFP+ port into 4 links of 10G?

Yes. With a breakout cable, a 40G QSFP+ port can operate as 4 SFP+ links of 10G (4×10G), as long as the equipment and firmware support it. We validate that configuration by model and port.

Are EON QSFP+ transceivers compatible with my equipment?

Compatibility is validated by model, firmware, port and optical part number on the main network platforms (Cisco, Juniper, Arista, HPE, Dell, Huawei, MikroTik, Extreme and Fortinet). If your equipment requires a specific profile, we offer transceiver recoding with 90-day service coverage.
