Cisco QSFP-40G-SR4
The Cisco 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP+ Module supports link lengths of 100m and 150m respectively on laser-
optimized OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber cables. It primarily enables high-bandwidth 40G optical links over 12-
fiber ribbon r cables terminated with MPO/MTP multi-fiber connectors. It can also be used in 4x10G mode along
with ribbon to duplex fiber breakout cables for connectivity to four 10GBASE-SR optical interfaces. Maximum
channel insertion loss allowed is respectively 1.9dB over 100m of OM3 cable or 1.5dB over 150m of OM4 cable.
