40G QSFP+ port of a Cisco switch

The Cisco 40GBASE-CSR4 QSFP+ Module is similar to the 40GBASE-SR4 interface extends supported link lengths to 300m and 400m respectively on laser-optimized OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber cables. Each 10-gigabit lane of this module is compliant to IEEE 10GBASE-SR specifications. This module can be used for native 40G optical links over 12-fiber ribbon cables with MPO/MTP connectors, or in 4x10G mode with ribbon to duplex fiber breakout cables for connectivity to four 10GBASE-SR interfaces. Maximum channel insertion loss allowed is respectively 2.6dB over 300m of OM3 cable or 2.9dB over 400m of OM4 cable.isco QSFP+ to four SFP+ copper direct-attach breakout cables (Figure 3) are suitable for very short distances and offer a highly cost-effective way to connect within racks and across adjacent racks. These breakout cables connect to a 40G QSFP+ cable port of a Cisco switch on one end and to four 10G SFP+ ports of a Cisco switch on the other end. Cisco QSFP-H40G-​CU3M – Compatible Cisco 40GbE QSFP+ QDR Direct-Att​ach Copper Cable 3ml currently offers passive cables in lengths of 1, 3 and 5 meters, and active cables in lengths of 7 and 10 meters.

Valiant's Ethernet over SDH SFP modules

FiberStore Multi-rate 2.67Gb/s transceiver modules are compatible with the SONET/SDH and ATM standards, The SDH SFP modules have a fully OC-48 SONET compliant interface between the SONET/SDH photonic layer and the electrical layer. These SONET/SDH SFP transceivers provide multi-rate capabilities and can be used from OC-3/STM-1(155 Mb/s) up to 2.67Gb/s, such as OC-3/STM-1 (155 Mbps), OC-12/STM-4 (622 Mbps), and OC-48/STM-16 (2,488 Gbps) data rates applications.A full range of SFP fibre optic transceivers for SONET/SDH applications up to 2.7Gb/s. Incorporating an LC duplex interface, this range of transceivers is designed to operate on all types of multimode and singlemode fibre in accordance with ISO11801.

SFP+ Passive DAC Cable Assemblies Panduit 10Gig

As virtualization, consolidation, and convergence initiatives continue to expand in Data Centers, so do the demands placed on the physical infrastructure. To meet the needs for higher bandwidth along with lower power interconnects, Panduit offers 10Gig SFP+ Passive DAC Cable Assemblies. This high speed data transport capability is ideal as server virtualization becomes more prevalent. 10Gig
interconnects are needed to facilitate effective server utilization to run multiple virtual machines as well as server consolidation. By incorporating 10Gig SFP+ Copper Cable Assemblies into the physical
infrastructure, organizations can achieve 10Gig performance without additional signal processing or conversion.

This provides an ideal low power, low latency 10 Gbps server interconnect option for top of rack switching deployments. Passive 10Gig SFP+ Copper Cable Assemblies generally have a reach limitation of 7 meters (23 feet), and many network deployments will consist of a mixed copper/fiber solution with Panduit 10Gig OM3 fiber.
