About This Part
The Ciena Part Number 160-9502-900 is a high-performance QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) optical transceiver module designed for robust 40 Gigabit Ethernet applications. This Ciena module adheres to the 40GBase-LR4 standard, facilitating long-reach data transmission over single-mode fiber (SMF) for distances up to 10 kilometers. It operates by multiplexing four lanes of 10 Gbps data onto a single fiber pair, utilizing distinct LAN WDM (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) wavelengths typically around the 1310 nm window. The QSFP+ form factor ensures high port density and efficient power consumption, making it an ideal solution for critical network infrastructure requiring reliable, high-bandwidth optical links. Its primary function is to convert electrical signals into optical signals for transmission and vice versa, providing seamless integration into compatible network equipment. This 40GBase-LR4 transceiver is crucial for establishing high-speed interconnects within and between data centers, enterprise campuses, and metropolitan area networks. It is commonly deployed in core routers, aggregation switches, and high-capacity network interface cards (NICs) where substantial bandwidth and extended reach are paramount. Telecommunication carriers, internet service providers, and large-scale cloud operators leverage this module to build resilient and scalable network backbones. The Ciena 160-9502-900 effectively solves the challenge of connecting network devices over distances that exceed the limitations of multi-mode fiber or shorter-reach single-mode solutions, enabling the consolidation of multiple 10GbE links into a single, more efficient 40GbE interface. It serves as a vital component for upgrading existing 10 Gigabit infrastructure to 40 Gigabit speeds without significant fiber plant overhaul.
