NOKIA (Alcatel) compatible QSFP-100G-LR4 Description
EdgeOptic's QSFP-100G-LR4 compatible is a Nokia-coded 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 transceiver built on our 100G-QSFP28-10 platform. The module is programmed with Nokia-specific EEPROM identification for SR OS recognition, so it registers as a known transceiver on the 7750 SR, 7250 IXR, and 7950 XRS series without third-party warning classifications. QSFP-100G-LR4 is the Nokia (formerly Alcatel-Lucent) part number for the standard 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28.
The module operates over duplex single-mode fiber with a minimum guaranteed optical link budget of 6.3 dB per IEEE 802.3ba, supporting distances up to 10 km over OS2 (G.652.D) fiber. The dual LC/UPC connector accepts standard SMF patch cords. The transmitter uses four EML (Electro-absorption Modulated Laser) channels at LAN WDM wavelengths 1295.56, 1300.05, 1304.58, and 1309.14 nm. The receiver uses a PIN photodiode array. Each channel runs at 25.78125 Gbps NRZ for an aggregate line rate of 103.125 Gbps.
Per-lane transmit power is -4.3 dBm to +4.5 dBm. Per-lane receiver sensitivity is -10.6 dBm at BER 5x10-5 pre-FEC, with receiver overload at -1.3 dBm per lane. DDM/DOM optical diagnostics report per-lane TX and RX optical power, laser bias current, temperature, and supply voltage through the SFF-8636 management interface.
QSFP-100G-LR4 is used on Nokia SR OS platforms with QSFP28 client ports: the 7750 SR (Service Router), 7250 IXR (Interconnect Router), and 7950 XRS (Extensible Routing System). Any Nokia platform that lists QSFP-100G-LR4 in its supported optics table for a QSFP28 port can use this module. The Nokia-coded EEPROM removes the foreign-transceiver classification that SR OS applies to uncoded modules.
Nokia uses several part number formats across product lines. QSFP-100G-LR4 is the standardized transceiver designation in Nokia's optics ordering guides. The internal product code q28lr4d maps to the same module in Nokia inventory systems. AL-QSFP-100G-LR4 is the legacy Alcatel-Lucent era designation, the AL- prefix is no longer current but refers to the same specification. Nokia 3HE-prefix ordering codes also exist for this platform family and carry their own EEPROM identifiers, refer to Nokia BOM documentation for the recommended part number on a specific platform and request matching EEPROM coding from the EdgeOptic engineering team.
The module ships CE/RoHS certified and complies with QSFP28 MSA SFF-8665 and IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-LR4. Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For project-quantity pricing or alternative vendor coding, contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is q28lr4d?
q28lr4d is the internal Nokia inventory and product code that maps to the standard QSFP-100G-LR4 transceiver. The two designations refer to the same physical module: a 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 with Nokia SR OS EEPROM coding. Nokia documentation portals and ordering systems use both names interchangeably. EdgeOptic's compatible covers either designation.
Which Nokia platforms support QSFP-100G-LR4?
Verified Nokia platforms include the 7750 SR (Service Router), 7250 IXR (Interconnect Router), and 7950 XRS (Extensible Routing System) on QSFP28 client ports. Any Nokia platform with QSFP28 cages that lists QSFP-100G-LR4 in its supported optics table can use the module. EdgeOptic codes the EEPROM for SR OS recognition, so the port reports a known transceiver type without the foreign-optic warning.
What is the difference between QSFP-100G-LR4 and other Nokia 100G LR4 part numbers?
Nokia 3HE-prefix ordering codes exist for this platform family alongside the standardized QSFP-100G-LR4 designation, and they carry their own EEPROM identifiers. EdgeOptic supplies QSFP-100G-LR4 standard coding on this listing. For a 3HE-specific ordering code, refer to Nokia BOM documentation for the platform's recommended part number, then request the matching EEPROM coding from the EdgeOptic engineering team.
Does the compatible QSFP-100G-LR4 work natively on Nokia SR OS without additional configuration?
Yes. EdgeOptic codes the module with Nokia-specific EEPROM identification for SR OS recognition. The module registers as a known optic without additional CLI configuration. SR OS may classify uncoded third-party modules as foreign or third-party transceivers; the Nokia-coded EEPROM avoids that classification on standard SR OS releases.
Is QSFP-100G-LR4 the same as AL-QSFP-100G-LR4?
Yes, they refer to the same module. AL-QSFP-100G-LR4 is the Alcatel-Lucent era designation. Nokia rebranded from Alcatel-Lucent in 2016, and current Nokia documentation uses QSFP-100G-LR4. Both names describe the same 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 specification for the same Nokia platforms. EdgeOptic's compatible matches either designation.
