CPAK-100G-LR4 Overview
The Cisco CPAK-100G-LR4 module is a 100GBASE pluggable optic that supports links up to 10km over standard single-mode fiber. It delivers 100Gbps throughput by multiplexing 4 lanes of 25Gbps Ethernet traffic onto different wavelengths in the 1310nm window.
This module uses the small form factor CPAK interface to provide higher density and bandwidth with lower power consumption compared to CFP and CFP2 modules. The CPAK footprint allows greater front panel port density.
The CPAK-100G-LR4 comes standard with an LC-SC adapter to enable connectivity to SC fiber connectors. The SC connector is officially supported, but the adapter can be removed to reveal a native LC interface if desired. The module is IEEE 802.3ba and OTU4 compliant.
