QSFP-40G-CSR-S Overview
The Cisco QSFP-40G-CSR-S is a 40GBASE-CSR pluggable optical transceiver module with a duplex LC connector interface. It is designed for multimode fiber connectivity over longer distances than typical 40GBASE-SR4 interfaces.
The QSFP-40G-CSR-S supports reaches of 300m over OM3, 400m over OM4, and 440m over OM5 multimode fiber. This allows reuse of existing 10GBASE infrastructure for 40GbE migration. The module operates on 4 wavelengths, each transmitting 10Gbps over duplex fiber pairs using LC connectors.
With extended reach on multimode fiber, the QSFP-40G-CSR-S provides a cost-effective 40G optical interface for data center interconnects up to 400m over legacy multimode cabling.
