The 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 optical transceiver is a parallel 103. 1Gbps quad small form-factor pluggable QSFP28 module for 100GBASE Ethernet. It provides 100Gb/s throughput up to 100 meters on OM4 and 70 meters on OM3 multimode fiber (MMF) with host FEC using 850nm wavelength. The Cisco 100GBASE Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable (QSFP) portfolio offers customers a wide variety of high-density and low-power 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options for data center, high-performance computing networks, enterprise core and distribution layers, and service provider. Yes, OM3 (Optical Multimode 3) fiber optic cabling can support 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100Gbps) transmission. OM3 is a type of multimode optical fiber with a higher bandwidth compared to its predecessor, OM2. This larger core allows easier light injection and lower-cost optical sources (LEDs and VCSELs), making multimode fiber the cost-effective choice for. Multimode fiber remains a leading optical media in the data center for short-reach distances up to 150 meters.
