Axiom OSFP transceiver module with MPO-16/APC connector

Axiom

Axiom OSFP-400G-SR8-AR-AX 400GBASE-SR8 OSFP SFP transceiver

SKU CH-NAQX-BHV6R MPN OSFP-400G-SR8-AR-AX

Connects 400 Gigabit Ethernet links over multi-mode fibre using an MPO-16/APC interface with a 80.10 km reach

  • 100% Arista compatibility ensures plug-and-play deployment
  • 400 Gbps throughput supports high-density data centre links
  • MPO-16/APC connector simplifies multi-fibre cabling
  • Multi-mode fibre reaches 80.10 km for extended runs
  • OSFP form factor fits next-generation switching platforms

Arista Compatible 400GBASE-SR8 OSFP

This transceiver delivers 400 Gbps connectivity for data networking and optical network environments. It is built for operators who need 100 percent Arista compatibility in an OSFP form factor with an MPO-16/APC interface.

Capacity and headroom

The module supports 400 Gigabit Ethernet over multi-mode fiber with a reach of 80.10 km. It handles high-density links in data centres and campus backbones, but runs out of range for longer metro or regional spans that require single-mode optics.

Upgrade path and fit

It replaces older lower-speed OSFP or QSFP transceivers when a 400G link is justified by bandwidth growth. The jump is worth it when existing multi-mode infrastructure can use the MPO-16/APC connector and the 80.10 km distance covers the link.

Highlights

  • 100% Arista compatibility ensures plug-and-play deployment
  • 400 Gbps throughput supports high-density data centre links
  • MPO-16/APC connector simplifies multi-fibre cabling
  • Multi-mode fibre reaches 80.10 km for extended runs
  • OSFP form factor fits next-generation switching platforms

Questions about this item

Will the OSFP-400G-SR8-AR-AX work with my existing Arista switches?

The module is 100% Arista compatible and uses an MPO-16/APC connector, so it fits directly into Arista OSFP ports without adapters.

How can I verify the transceiver is operating correctly after installation?

Check the switch port status for a 400G link, confirm the 400GBASE-SR8 protocol is active, and ensure the receive power levels are within the multi-mode range.

Does the box include the MPO-16/APC patch cables I need for 400GBASE-SR8?

The transceiver ships alone; you must purchase multi-mode MPO-16/APC fibre cables separately to complete the 80.10 km link.
