The Cisco 100GBASE QSFP-28 portfolio offers enterprise organizations and service providers an efficient, high-density solution for 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Designed to meet the traffic demands of cloud-scale data centers, these hot-swappable transceiver modules enable seamless scaling while optimizing rack space, power consumption, and bandwidth efficiency across optical networks.
Modern enterprise operations face expanding bandwidth demands driven by virtualization, high-performance computing, and cloud architectures. The Cisco 100G QSFP-28 platform addresses these challenges by delivering high-speed optical transmission with low power requirements, allowing network engineers to maximize switch port density while maintaining robust operational reliability.
Product overview
The Cisco 100GBASE QSFP-28 product line encompasses a wide range of transceivers and direct-attach cable options tailored for diverse media. For short-reach multimode fiber deployments, the lineup includes the QSFP-100G-SR4-S, QSFP-100G-SR1.2-S, and QSFP-100G-BiDi modules, which allow seamless 10G/40G to 100G migration over existing duplex MMF infrastructure.
For single-mode fiber applications, Cisco offers the QSFP-100G-PSM4-S for parallel fiber up to 500 meters, along with QSFP-100G-CWDM4-S and QSFP-100G-SM-SR modules for duplex SMF links up to 2 kilometers. For longer spans, the portfolio includes the QSFP-100G-LR4-S (10 km), QSFP-100G-ER4L-S (40 km), and QSFP-100G-ZR4-S for extended reach up to 80 kilometers. Cisco also provides QSFP-100G-DR-S and QSFP-100G-FR-S modules for single-lambda transport.
To support intra-rack interconnects, Cisco supplies QSFP-100G-CU Direct Attach Copper (DAC) twinax cables, QSFP-100G-AOC Active Optical Cables, and breakout cables converting 100G QSFP to 4x 25G SFP28 links. Additionally, Cisco incorporates QSFP-DD 100G transceivers into the family, allowing smooth integration into high-density 400G switch platforms.

Cisco CPAK 100GBASE-LR4 and -LR4-2K Module
The primary application of the Cisco CPAK-100G-LR4, CPAK-100G-LR4-2K and CPAK-100GE-LR4 modules is to support 100Gbps optical links over standard Single-Mode Fiber (SMF, G.652) terminated with SC connectors or LC connectors (Figures 2a and 2b). The LC-SC adapter (Figure 1) on CPAK-100G-LR4 (ver 09 or higher) is removable if LC connectors are desired rather than the standard SC connectors; however, SC is the officially supported connector type.
The LR4 module is IEEE 802.3ba-compliant and supports link lengths of up to 10 km over standard SMF, G.652. It delivers an aggregate data signal of 100 Gbps, carried over four LAN Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (WDM) wavelengths operating at a nominal 25 Gbps per lane. Optical multiplexing and demultiplexing of the four wavelengths are managed within the module.
