MikroTik compatible XQ+31LC10D Description
EdgeOptic's XQ+31LC10D compatible is a MikroTik-coded QSFP28 transceiver built on our 100G-QSFP28-10 hardware platform with MikroTik-recognised EEPROM programmed at the factory. The XQ+ prefix identifies MikroTik's QSFP28 transceiver family in their naming convention. The module presents to RouterOS as a recognised XQ+31LC10D, exposing standard 100GBASE-LR4 operation and DDM/DOM telemetry without any third-party transceiver workaround on the host.
MikroTik's RouterOS compatibility documentation lists the following platforms with XQ+ QSFP28 cages: CRS504-4XQ-IN, CRS504-4XQ-OUT, CRS510-8XS-2XQ, CRS518-16XS-2XQ, CRS520-4XS-16XQ, CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ, RDS2216-2XG-4S+4XS-2XQ, CRS812-8DS-2DQ-2DDQ, and CRS804-4DDQ. RouterOS does not gate third-party MSA-compliant modules; the EdgeOptic compatible coding ensures the module identifies cleanly so that Winbox, the CLI and the RouterOS web UI all show the expected vendor and part-number strings against the interface.
The optical layer conforms to IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-LR4. A cooled EML transmitter array drives four LAN WDM channels at 1295.56, 1300.05, 1304.58 and 1309.14 nm, multiplexed onto a single duplex LC single-mode fiber pair. PIN photodiode receivers recover the wavelengths at the far end. Each lane carries 25.78125 Gbps NRZ for a 103.125 Gbps aggregate line rate. The optical path loss budget of 6.3 dB supports the full 10 km G.652 SMF reach. TX and RX optical power, module temperature, supply voltage and laser bias current are exposed via SFF-8636 DDM telemetry. Module power draw stays within the 3.5 W QSFP28 envelope.
QSFP28 MSA (SFF-8665) and SFF-8636 management compliance covers the electrical and software interfaces. The duplex LC connector accepts standard SMF patch cords and the commercial 0 to 70 °C operating temperature range covers typical aggregation and small data-center environments. As a 100GBASE-LR4 IEEE 802.3ba module, the optic is interoperable end-to-end with any standards-compliant 100GBASE-LR4 port at the far side, regardless of the chassis vendor on that end.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which MikroTik devices support the XQ+31LC10D?
MikroTik's RouterOS wired-interface compatibility documentation lists nine XQ+ QSFP28 platforms: CRS504-4XQ-IN, CRS504-4XQ-OUT, CRS510-8XS-2XQ, CRS518-16XS-2XQ, CRS520-4XS-16XQ, CCR2216-1G-12XS-2XQ, RDS2216-2XG-4S+4XS-2XQ, CRS812-8DS-2DQ-2DDQ, and CRS804-4DDQ. The EdgeOptic compatible is coded with MikroTik-recognised EEPROM so each of these platforms identifies the optic as XQ+31LC10D on the interface table.
Does a third-party XQ+31LC10D compatible work natively in RouterOS without extra configuration?
Yes. RouterOS does not restrict third-party MSA-compliant transceivers per MikroTik's published documentation, and the EdgeOptic compatible ships with MikroTik-recognised EEPROM coding. The interface comes up at 100G with no override command required and DDM telemetry populates against the port the same way it does for the OEM module.
What does the XQ+ prefix mean in MikroTik transceiver naming?
XQ+ identifies MikroTik's QSFP28 transceiver family in the RouterOS optic catalog, distinct from the SFP+ (S+), SFP28 (XS+) and QSFP+ (Q+) prefixes used elsewhere in the MikroTik lineup. MikroTik does not publish a formal decoder for the suffix portion (31LC10D), so the rest of the part number is treated as an opaque ordering code rather than a parseable specification string.
Can the XQ+31LC10D connect to non-MikroTik QSFP28 switches?
Yes. 100GBASE-LR4 is an IEEE 802.3ba standard with a defined LAN WDM wavelength plan and an LC duplex SMF interface. The module on the MikroTik side will interoperate with any standards-compliant 100GBASE-LR4 port at the other end of the fiber, regardless of which chassis vendor terminates that end. The MikroTik-specific EEPROM coding only affects how the module is identified locally on the RouterOS host, not the optical handshake on the line.
