Description
The A1 Options 100G/40GBASE-SR-BiDi QSFP28 Transceiver delivers a flexible, high-performance optical solution for Cisco networking environments requiring reliable short-reach 40G or 100G connectivity. Engineered for seamless compatibility, this BiDi transceiver supports dual-wavelength transmission over a single pair of multimode fibers, enabling efficient link upgrades without requiring additional fiber infrastructure.
A1 Options sources and supplies hard-to-find, end-of-life (EOL), and discontinued networking components—helping organizations extend hardware lifecycles while maintaining operational continuity. As OEMs phase out legacy optics, A1 Options ensures availability, performance consistency, and reliable quality for long-term network sustainability.
Designed for productivity-driven data networking environments, this QSFP28 module supports high-speed, low-latency connections with minimal signal loss, enabling dependable 40G/100G backbone, aggregation, or data center links. With robust optical performance and flexible BiDi operation, it is an ideal solution for modern bandwidth demands in constrained fiber deployments.
