Brocade compatible 100G-QSFP28-SR4 Description

EdgeOptic's 100G-QSFP28-SR4 compatible is a Brocade-coded 100GBASE-SR4 version of the EdgeOptic 100G-QSFP28-100 multi-vendor 100GBASE-SR4 transceiver, one universal short-reach module coded for multiple vendor platforms. It carries 100G Ethernet over four parallel 850 nm VCSEL lanes at 25G each across multimode fiber, terminated on an MTP/MPO-12 (UPC) connector using 8 active fibers, 4 transmit and 4 receive. The transceiver port is female and unpinned; the patch cable is the pinned male side. Reach is 100 m over OM4 and 70 m over OM3, per IEEE 802.3bm Clause 95.

Optical specifications include a 1.9 dB average link budget, receiver sensitivity of −10.3 dBm per lane, NRZ modulation, and no FEC required at this reach. The transmitter uses 850 nm VCSELs; the receiver is a PIN photodiode. OM4 supports the full 100 m while OM3 is rated to 70 m, with achievable distance depending on patch panels, splices, and connector cleanliness in the installed link. DDM/DOM is supported, so the host reads per-lane transmit power, receive power, and laser bias plus module temperature and supply voltage. The module operates across the 0°C to 70°C commercial range at up to 3.5 W and is compliant with the QSFP28 MSA, SFF-8665, and SFF-8636. This is a 100G Ethernet short-reach optic; it does not carry Fibre Channel, OTN, or SONET traffic.

100G-QSFP28-SR4 is Brocade's catalog designation for this module, carried under assembly number 57-1000326-01. It is used on Brocade SLX-series and VDX-series switches with 100G QSFP28 ports. EdgeOptic codes this compatible with Brocade-recognized EEPROM so the host accepts it on supported platforms. Confirm the specific switch model and line card against the Brocade or Extreme Networks compatibility matrix before deployment. Typical roles include data center core interconnects, ISP aggregation, and mobile operator core networks.
