Specifications

Applications and Optical Link Design

Use this module for equipment interconnection over the specified single-mode fiber plant, including enterprise backbone, campus, metro or data-center interconnect links according to its rated distance. Confirm that both ends use the same optical standard and wavelength plan, and allow for connector, splice and patch-panel loss within the stated power budget.

Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 100G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a QSFP28 housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.

Before commissioning, measure the complete single-mode channel against the stated budget for 500m on OS2. Inspect every MTP/MPO-12 APC connection and record diagnostic power where supported. Both ends must agree on rate, wavelength and optical standard.

NVIDIA/Mellanox Compatibility and Factory Testing

Compatibility testing for MMS1C10-CM combines identification with a live link and available transmit, receive and alarm information. Connector condition is inspected separately. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.

Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling

For this model, the specified transmit-power range is -9.4~2dBm; the stated optical power budget is 3.26dB. A sound acceptance record includes link state, diagnostic temperature, supply voltage and transmit or receive levels where the host exposes them. Compare the readings with the stated ranges rather than treating any received light as proof of adequate margin. Persistent alarms or borderline values should trigger an end-face and complete-channel inspection. Diagnostic monitoring is listed as Supported. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.

Interoperability and Host Configuration

Check three layers before deployment: host acceptance of the module identity, port support for the stated rate, and a matching optical standard at the remote interface. For breakout operation, confirm lane configuration too. Similar-looking cages can behave differently across speeds and firmware settings. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 103.125Gbps (4x 25.78Gbps), wavelength 1310nm, rated reach 500m on OS2.

Ordering Information

When ordering, specify MMS1C10-CM, QSFP-PSM4-100G, quantity and intended host platform. Project labels can repeat these details for receiving and asset records. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.

Shipping and Lead Time

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Quality control covers the optical or electrical interface, host identification and operating link. The verified unit is then individually protected and cartoned. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
