Brocade compatible 100G-QSFP28-LR4-LP-10KM Description
100G-QSFP28-LR4-LP-10KM is Brocade's low-power variant of the 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 transceiver. EdgeOptic's compatible replacement is built on our 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 platform. The LP (Low Power) designation in Brocade's SKU naming indicates this module is qualified for switch port slots with tighter per-port power envelopes. Brocade's networking division is now part of Ruckus (CommScope), so this module is also referenced as a Ruckus ICX-compatible optic in current documentation.
Four LAN WDM channels — 1295.56, 1300.05, 1304.58, 1309.14 nm — each carrying 25G, multiplexed onto a single duplex LC G.652 single-mode fiber pair. IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-LR4 compliant, 6.3 dB optical path loss budget for reaches up to 10 km. TX power: -4.3 to +4.5 dBm, RX sensitivity: -10.6 dBm. Brocade's public documentation doesn't independently quantify the LP module's exact wattage — the LP designation indicates qualification for Brocade/Ruckus ICX switch slots with stricter per-port power allocation, not a distinct optical specification. 0-70 C commercial temperature range.
Primary platform: Ruckus ICX 7850 (formerly Brocade ICX 7850), providing 32x40/100GbE QSFP28 ports. In high-density port configurations, the ICX 7850 may require LP-qualified optics to stay within per-slot power budgets — particularly when all 32 ports are populated and power headroom is constrained. Optically, the LP specification matches the standard 100G-QSFP28-LR4-10KM variant. When the ICX switch's optics compatibility matrix lists the LP SKU, order this LP-specific compatible.
DDM (Digital Diagnostics Monitoring) is active, reporting real-time TX power, RX power, temperature, laser bias current, and supply voltage through the Ruckus ICX management interface. Supports host-side FEC (RS-FEC, BASE-R FEC) as the connected switch allows. QSFP28 MSA-compliant form factor, hot-pluggable for field replacement without switch downtime — well suited for rolling upgrades on ICX 7850 stacks.
Don't confuse this with the E-prefix variant: Brocade also lists the E100G-QSFP28-LR4-LP-10KM, a separate product that may carry different EEPROM coding for Extreme Networks platform compatibility. After Brocade's acquisition split, the data center networking division went to Extreme Networks while the ICX switch line went to Ruckus. Equipment labels or ordering systems showing the E-prefix variant require the separate EdgeOptic listing for that SKU.
Every unit is tested against current Ruckus ICX firmware for proper identification and link initialization. CE/RoHS certified. For platform-specific compatibility questions or bulk pricing -- contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Brocade 100G-QSFP28-LR4-LP-10KM and the 100G-QSFP28-LR4-10KM?
Both are 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28, 10 km, single-mode fiber. The LP (Low Power) designation means qualification for Brocade/Ruckus ICX slots with tighter per-port power budgets. Brocade doesn't publish the exact wattage difference. Check the ICX optics compatibility matrix — order the LP variant if it specifies LP, or the standard variant if it lists the non-LP SKU.
Is the Brocade 100G-QSFP28-LR4-LP-10KM the same as the E100G-QSFP28-LR4-LP-10KM?
Same optical spec (100GBASE-LR4, 10 km, LP), but the E-prefix variant may carry different EEPROM coding. After Brocade's breakup, ICX switches went to Ruckus (CommScope) and data center networking went to Extreme Networks. The E-prefix is associated with Extreme platform codes. EdgeOptic lists them separately with distinct EEPROM programming — order whichever matches the equipment's SKU label.
Which Ruckus ICX switches support the 100G-QSFP28-LR4-LP-10KM transceiver?
Primary platform is the Ruckus ICX 7850 (32x40/100GbE QSFP28 ports). The LP variant is intended for high-density configurations where per-port power is constrained. Other Brocade/Ruckus ICX switches with QSFP28 100G ports may also accept it — check the optics compatibility matrix for the specific LP SKU. For confirmation, provide EdgeOptic with the ICX model and firmware version.
