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 50G 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 80km. Inspect every Duplex LC connection and record diagnostic power where supported. Both ends must agree on rate, wavelength and optical standard.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

Factory verification starts with the expected QSFP-ZR2-50G identity and finishes with an operating host link. EEPROM data, diagnostic visibility and the stated optical parameters are assessed together. 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 2~6.5dBm; receiver sensitivity is <-28dBm; the stated optical power budget is 30dB. 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 53.125Gbps, wavelength 1310nm, rated reach 80km.

Ordering Information

Quote HT part number QSFP-ZR2-50G together with OEM reference QSFP-ZR2-50G and quantity. Add the host model and software release when pre-order verification is required. 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

Each QSFP-ZR2-50G compatible module is inspected, powered up and functionally checked before protective packing. Dust caps and individual trays shield the interface during transport. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
