Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Cisco QSFP-100G-PSM4-S transceiver used for?
The Cisco QSFP-100G-PSM4-S is a 100GBASE PSM4 QSFP transceiver module designed for high-speed optical networking applications. This hot-swappable module uses MPO connectors and supports 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over parallel single-mode fiber, making it ideal for data center and long-distance network deployments where you need reliable 100G performance.
What fiber type and distance does the QSFP-100G-PSM4-S support?
The QSFP-100G-PSM4-S operates over single-mode optical fiber with a 500-meter maximum transmission distance. This makes it suitable for campus-area networks and data center interconnect applications where you need extended reach beyond short-range multimode solutions while maintaining 100 Gigabit Ethernet speeds.
Is the Cisco QSFP-100G-PSM4-S hot-swappable?
Yes, the QSFP-100G-PSM4-S is a hot-swappable transceiver module, meaning you can insert or remove it from compatible ports without powering down your network equipment. This design minimizes downtime during maintenance, upgrades, or troubleshooting in production environments.
What connector type does the QSFP-100G-PSM4-S use?
The Cisco QSFP-100G-PSM4-S uses MPO (Multi-fiber Push-On) connectors for its optical connections. MPO connectors are industry-standard for high-density, high-speed transceiver modules and allow for efficient parallel fiber transmission in 100G applications.
What equipment is the QSFP-100G-PSM4-S compatible with?
The QSFP-100G-PSM4-S is compatible with Cisco switches and routers that feature QSFP ports supporting 100 Gigabit Ethernet. We offer this transceiver module along with a full range of Cisco networking components—contact us today to verify compatibility with your specific equipment and get the right transceiver for your network infrastructure.
How does the QSFP-100G-PSM4-S compare to other 100G transceiver options?
The PSM4 variant offers a 500-meter reach over single-mode fiber, positioning it between short-range multimode solutions (like SR4) and ultra-long-range options (like LR4 or ZR4). If you need guidance on selecting between different 100G transceiver types for your specific distance and fiber requirements, our team at Barcodes Inc can help you choose the right module for your deployment.
