About This Part
The SFM40G4 is a high-performance QSFP+ (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) optical transceiver, engineered for 40 Gigabit Ethernet applications. This module facilitates high-speed data transmission over multi-mode fiber optic cables, efficiently converting electrical signals into optical signals and vice-versa. Operating at an 850nm wavelength, this SR4 (Short Reach, 4-channel) module provides a robust and efficient solution for demanding networking environments, ensuring reliable data flow. Primarily deployed in data centers, enterprise networks, and high-performance computing (HPC) environments, the SFM40G4 is ideal for short-distance interconnections between switches, routers, and servers. Its 40G capability supports bandwidth-intensive applications, while the 150-meter reach over multi-mode fiber makes it suitable for intra-rack and inter-rack links. The Gen2 designation indicates an optimized or updated version, ensuring reliable performance within compatible Solarflare or other networking infrastructure. Revo Distribution Limited offers this Solarflare-compatible QSFP+ transceiver as part of our commitment to providing cost-effective and reliable used and refurbished telecom and data centre equipment. Sourcing quality components like the SFM40G4 allows our B2B clients to upgrade or maintain their network infrastructure without the premium cost of new hardware, ensuring operational continuity and maximizing IT budget efficiency.
