Specifications

Applications and Optical Link Design

This coherent interface is suited to data-center interconnect, metro transport and managed DWDM links where the host platform supports the stated modulation and FEC modes. Design the optical line around the actual launch power, receiver range, OSNR requirement and span loss; the stated reach is not a substitute for a link-budget calculation. Use matching coherent modules and the appropriate DWDM channel plan at both ends.

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.

For this coherent interface, document the wavelength plan and modulation or FEC settings before commissioning. Measure span loss and verify adequate OSNR. Interoperability depends on compatible coherent modes as well as form factor, so another coherent part number must not be substituted without engineering review.

Dell Compatibility and Factory Testing

Compatibility testing for QSFP-SR1.2-100G 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 -6.2dBm~4dBm; the stated optical power budget is 2dB. During commissioning, record the host diagnostic readings after the link has stabilized and compare them with those limits. DOM values are useful operational indicators, but they do not replace calibrated optical measurements when a link is marginal. Investigate unexpected loss through connector inspection, cleaning and a channel measurement before replacing the module. 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 106.25 Gbps, wavelength 850/910nm, rated reach 70m on OM3 / 100m on OM4 / 150m on OM5.

Ordering Information

Use QSFP-SR1.2-100G as the compatibility cross-reference and QSFP-SR1.2-100G as the HT ordering identity. Keep other reaches or wavelength directions on separate order lines. 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.
