Models, specifications, and compatibility

QSFP+ optical transceiver modules provide a transmission rate of 40 Gbps and use Multifiber Push On (MPO) connectors.

NOTE:

40G SR4 and eSR4 are not supported for use over MMF OM1 or OM2 quality fiber. (The IEEE standard does not state a specification). Use MPO female connectors for use with the MPO transceivers.
