Why choose it

This transceiver is engineered for Cisco-compatible environments, delivering reliable 40G connectivity with low power draw and integrated DDM for real-time monitoring of optical parameters. Its support for OTU3 allows seamless integration into OTN-based metro and access networks.

Ideal use cases

• 40G Ethernet links between data centre switches
• OTN OTU3 client interfaces in telecom networks
• High-capacity interconnects within a campus or metro area

Good to know

The module uses four CWDM wavelengths multiplexed over a single pair of single-mode fibres, enabling efficient use of existing fibre infrastructure. It operates from a standard 3.3 V supply and is hot-pluggable for minimal downtime during installation or replacement.
