Applications and Optical Link Design

Typical deployments include switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and aggregation links inside a data hall or between adjacent equipment rooms. The Duplex LC interface connects to the specified multimode cabling, and the stated reach depends on fiber grade and link loss. Keep this interface on the matching multimode optical standard rather than connecting it directly to a single-mode wavelength or reach variant.

Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 100G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a QSFP28 housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.

For this multimode module, confirm fiber grade, modal bandwidth and total loss before commissioning. The 100G: 75m on OM3 / 100m on OM4 / 150m on OM540G: 240m on OM3 / 350m on OM4 / 440m on OM5 figure applies only under suitable cabling conditions. Inspect every Duplex LC mating point and match the remote optical standard.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Before packing, the module receives interface inspection, identification and link checks. Protective packaging avoids pressure on the connector and latch. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.

Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling

For this model, the specified transmit-power range is 100G: -7.5~2 dBm 40G: -7.5~3 dBm; the stated optical power budget is 100G: 1.9dB40G: 2dB. During commissioning, record the host diagnostic readings after the link has stabilized and compare them with those limits. DOM values are useful operational indicators, but they do not replace calibrated optical measurements when a link is marginal. Investigate unexpected loss through connector inspection, cleaning and a channel measurement before replacing the module. Diagnostic monitoring is listed as Supported. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.

Data-Center Optical Design and Airflow

Select the module by optical standard, reach and rack layout. Check the complete fiber channel, including panels and connectors, and keep dense bundles from blocking front-panel airflow. Account for listed power consumption and preserve enough space to remove a module without disturbing adjacent links. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate Dual Rate 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps, wavelength 850/880/910/940nm, rated reach 100G: 75m on OM3 / 100m on OM4 / 150m on OM540G: 240m on OM3 / 350m on OM4 / 440m on OM5.

Ordering Information

Use QSFP-MBIDI-100G as the compatibility cross-reference and QSFP-MBIDI-100G as the HT ordering identity. Keep other reaches or wavelength directions on separate order lines. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

Factory verification starts with the expected QSFP-MBIDI-100G identity and finishes with an operating host link. EEPROM data, diagnostic visibility and the stated optical parameters are assessed together. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an original equipment manufacturer transceiver?

No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible transceiver supplied under our own manufacturer identity, not an original equipment manufacturer module.

Which fiber and connector are required?

Use Duplex LC with MMF. The specified maximum reach is 100G: 75m on OM3 / 100m on OM4 / 150m on OM540G: 240m on OM3 / 350m on OM4 / 440m on OM5, subject to fiber quality and total link loss.

Can it be mixed with another wavelength or reach version?

Only when the two ends share the same optical standard, wavelength plan and supported data rate. Check the exact part numbers and link budget rather than relying only on the module form factor.

Shipping and Lead Time

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
