100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 Transceiver
This 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 optical transceiver module delivers 100 Gbps connectivity over single-mode fibre up to 10 km. It uses a 1310 nm wavelength with duplex LC connectors and includes digital diagnostic monitoring. The module draws a maximum of 3.5 W and is built with a high-performance chip for reliability. It suits network engineers upgrading 100 GbE links in data-centre or campus environments.
Compatibility and Port Requirements
Verify that your switch or router accepts QSFP28 modules coded for Cisco QSFP-100G-LR4-S or Meraki MA-QSFP-100G-LR4. The host port must support the IEEE 802.3bm 100GBASE-LR4 electrical interface and provide a QSFP28 cage with adequate airflow for 3.5 W heat dissipation. Confirm the fibre plant is OS2 single-mode with duplex LC patching and that link distances do not exceed 10 km. The module is hot-pluggable and RoHS-6 compliant for straightforward installation.
Build Integration and Benefits
The transceiver fits directly into any standard QSFP28 slot, freeing you from fixed-port 100 GbE line cards. Its MSA-compliant EEPROM coding ensures recognition across multiple vendor platforms tested in the supplier's compatibility lab. Digital optical monitoring gives real-time visibility of received and transmitted power, temperature and voltage for proactive maintenance. The low 3.5 W draw reduces aggregate chassis power and cooling load compared with higher-consumption alternatives.

Questions about this item
Does the box contain the patch cables or only the transceiver?
The boxed module is supplied alone; duplex LC single-mode patch cables must be purchased separately.
Which distance rating fits a 10 km campus link?
The LR4 variant is specified for 10 km over single-mode fibre at 1310 nm.
What does the 3.5 W figure mean for switch power budgeting?
Each occupied QSFP28 port draws up to 3.5 W, so plan the chassis power supply accordingly.
