100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28, which can support up to 10km over duplex single-mode fiber (SMF) with LC connectors. This transceiver uses four wavelengths of 1310nm LAN WDM to achieve a 100G data rate. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-LR4 and QSFP28 MSA standards.

100GBASE-ER4L QSFP28, which can support up to 25km or 40km over duplex SMF with LC connectors, depending on the product specifications. This transceiver also uses four wavelengths of 1310nm LAN WDM to achieve 100G data rate. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-ER4 and QSFP28 MSA standards.

100GBASE-ZR4 QSFP28, which can support up to 80km over duplex SMF with LC connectors. This transceiver also uses four wavelengths of 1310nm LAN WDM to achieve 100G data rate. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-ZR4 and QSFP28 MSA standards.

Why Do 400G/100G Optical Ports in Switches Require Forward Error Correction (FEC)?

Introduction Optical networks require the use of Forward Error Correction (FEC) to guarantee reliable communication. Similar to how a reader may overlook a single spelling mistake in a text but struggle when errors accumulate, digital transmissions—encoded as sequences of “0”s and “1”s—are subject to inevitable signal attenuation and bit errors.
