QSFP-40G-SR4-S Description

QSFP-40G-SR4-S is a Cisco 40GBASE-SR4 S-Class QSFP+ transceiver module designed for high-density, low-power 40 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Also referred to as "Cisco 40GBASE-SR4 S-Class module" or "QSFP+ 40G SR4", this module supports up to 100 meters on OM3 and 150 meters on OM4/OM5 multimode fiber, utilizing an MPO-12 connector. It offers a cost-effective solution for data center, enterprise, and high-performance computing networks requiring reliable, short-reach 40G optical links. The S-Class version is optimized for Ethernet applications and does not support FCoE or 4x10G breakout. Fully compliant with IEEE 802.3ba 40GBASE-SR4 standards, the QSFP-40G-SR4-S ensures seamless interoperability and simplified deployment.

Key Features

  • Target Application: Entry-level, cost-sensitive 40G Ethernet deployments in data centers and campus networks.
  • Scenario: Used primarily for short-reach backbone or aggregation links between switches and routers within the same rack or adjacent racks.
  • Functional Highlights:
    • Optimized for standard 40GBASE-SR4 Ethernet links using OM3/OM4 multimode fiber.
    • Does not support FCoE or 4x10G breakout, making it ideal for customers who only need basic high-speed Ethernet connectivity.
    • Perfect for high-density environments where simple plug-and-play 40G connectivity is required.
  • Typical Users: Enterprises and data centers focused on simple, low-cost 40G upgrades with no storage traffic.

Safety & Compliance

This product meets the following standards and compliance requirements:

  • International Standards:
    • IEEE 802.3ba: Compliant with 40GBASE-SR4 Ethernet standards
    • QSFP+ MSA SFF-8436: Mechanical and electrical interface
    • RoHS 6: Fully RoHS-compliant for environmental safety
  • Laser Safety:
    • Class 1 Laser Product (IEC 60825-1, 21CFR-1040)
  • Electrical Safety:
    • UL E116441 certified cable jacket
  • Other Compliance:
    • ELV and WEEE (Electronic waste and recycling regulations)
    • Cisco Takeback and Reuse Program participation

Installation & Usage Tips

  • Connector Requirements:
    Use only MPO-12 (female) connectors with PC or UPC end-face types for optimal performance. Patch cords with APC connectors are not supported.
  • Fiber Type:
    Use laser-optimized OM3, OM4, or OM5 multimode fiber.
    • OM3: Up to 100 meters
    • OM4/OM5: Up to 150 meters
  • Proper Handling:
    • The module is hot-swappable; it can be installed or removed while the system is powered on.
    • Before insertion, clean the MPO connector end face to avoid signal loss.
    • Avoid touching the optical interface to prevent contamination.
  • Breakout Usage:
    The S-Class (QSFP-40G-SR4-S) does not support 4x10G breakout mode. For breakout functionality, use QSFP-40G-SR4 or QSFP-40G-CSR4.
  • Installation Procedure:
    1. Ensure you are grounded using an ESD wrist strap.
    2. Align the module to the QSFP+ port and gently slide it in until it clicks into place.
    3. Connect the MPO patch cable securely.
    4. Check module LED and diagnostics for proper operation.
  • Removal:
    Pull the bail latch downwards to release the module, and gently slide it out.
