What is a QSFP28 transceiver?
A QSFP28 transceiver (100G QSFP28 module) is the four-lane 25G optic for 100 Gbps (100GbE) links, defined by IEEE 802.3bm. It is the dominant form factor in data center spine-leaf architectures, data center interconnect and backbone, and it can also operate as 4 links of 25G (4×25G breakout).
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.
QSFP28 variants: SR4, LR4 and CWDM4
- 100GBASE-SR4 (MPO, multimode): short data center distances (~70–100 m) with an MPO/MTP connector.
- 100GBASE-CWDM4 / LR4 (duplex, single-mode): 4 wavelengths over one fiber pair, LC connector; CWDM4 up to 2 km and LR4 up to 10 km.
- BiDi and single-lane QSFP28 (DR/FR): alternatives depending on the architecture and the available fiber.
Every part number includes DDM/DOM for real-time monitoring of optical power, temperature and voltage.
Why choose EON QSFP28 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.
