A1: It is a high-density, hot-pluggable optical module interface supporting 400Gbps data rates, featuring 8 electrical channels for enhanced bandwidth. Q2: What are the main types of 400G QSFP-DD modules? A2: Common variants include SR8 (short-range), DR4/FR4 (intermediate), LR4/LR8 (long-range), and ER4/ER8 (extended-reach), with transmission distances ranging from 100m to 40km. Q3: How does OSFP differ from QSFP-DD?‌ A3: OSFP has a larger form factor and non-compatible electrical interfaces, while QSFP-DD is backward-compatible with QSFP28 modules. Q4:What encoding scheme does 400G OSFP use?‌ A4: Data Rate 53.125Gbps (PAM4) per channel(Maximum power consumption 12W), balancing speed and complexity. Q5: What is the maximum transmission distance for 400G QSFP-DD LR4? A5: The LR4 variant supports up to 10km over single-mode fiber (SMF) using 4x106Gbps lanes, ideal for 5G and cloud interconnects.

A6: The module converts 8 channels of 50Gb/s (PAM4) electrical input data to 4 channels of CWDM optical signals and multiplexes them into a single channel for 400Gb/s optical transmission. Q7: Does QSFP-DD support digital diagnostics? A7: Yes, it includes DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring) per MSA standards, enabling real-time monitoring of temperature, voltage, and optical power. Q8: What DAC options exist for 400G QSFP-DD? A8: Available configurations include direct QSFP-DD-to-QSFP-DD, or breakout to 2x200G QSFP56/4x100G QSFP56/8x50G SFP56 for flexible scaling. Q9: How does OSFP differ from QSFP-DD?‌ A9: OSFP has a larger form factor and non-compatible electrical interfaces, while QSFP-DD is backward-compatible with QSFP28 modules.
