Intel compatible E100GQSFP28LRX Description
EdgeOptic's E100GQSFP28LRX compatible is an Intel-coded 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 transceiver built on the EdgeOptic 100G-QSFP28-10 platform. Intel lists the E100GQSFP28LRX in its Ethernet QSFP28 Optic catalog as the LR variant for use with Intel Ethernet adapters that carry QSFP28 ports. EdgeOptic programs each unit with Intel-recognized EEPROM identifiers so the host adapter surfaces the expected ordering code through the standard transceiver-detection flow.
The optical interface follows IEEE 802.3ba Clause 88 100GBASE-LR4. Four 25.78125 Gbps NRZ lanes ride the LAN WDM grid at 1295.56, 1300.05, 1304.58, and 1309.14 nm, then multiplex onto a single LC duplex pair of single-mode fiber. The 6.3 dB optical path loss budget supports a full 10 km reach on G.652 SMF. Host electrical interface is CAUI-4 per IEEE 802.3bm. The module exposes DDM telemetry per SFF-8636 for transmit power, receive power, laser bias current, supply voltage, and case temperature.
The X suffix in E100GQSFP28LRX indicates an extended operating temperature variant within Intel's QSFP28 Optic family, so the part is targeted at deployments outside the standard 0 to 70 C commercial window. Verify the exact temperature range against the Intel datasheet entry for E100GQSFP28LRX before specifying it for an industrial, outdoor, or pluggable cabinet deployment. The module carries Class 1 laser safety classification and RoHS 2 compliance, and follows the QSFP28 MSA SFF-8665 mechanical and thermal envelope. The QSFP28 cage exposes vendor name, vendor part number, vendor serial number, date code, and the rest of the SFF-8636 EEPROM identification fields, which the host adapter reads through the standard transceiver-detection sequence on insertion.
Designed for Intel Ethernet adapters with QSFP28 ports, including the E810 family that follows Intel's open-optic policy for third-party transceivers. Verify the entry for your specific Intel adapter or platform in the Intel Ethernet adapter compatibility documentation before deployment. Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a third-party E100GQSFP28LRX work on Intel E810-series adapters without firmware overrides?
The Intel E810 family follows Intel's open-optic policy, which accepts QSFP28 modules from third-party suppliers without the firmware lockout that appears on older Intel Ethernet adapter generations. EdgeOptic codes the E100GQSFP28LRX with Intel-recognized EEPROM identifiers, so the adapter reads the module under its expected ordering code through the standard transceiver-detection path. The open-optic policy applies specifically to the E810 generation; for other Intel Ethernet adapter families, confirm the third-party-optics policy in the adapter's user guide before installation, or contact our sales team to confirm coverage for the specific adapter in your deployment.
