The JBX01496 is a cutting-edge 100GBASE-ZR4 QSFP28 optical transceiver engineered for organizations requiring ultra-high-speed, long-distance network connectivity. This enterprise-grade module enables 100 Gigabit Ethernet transmission across 80 kilometers of singlemode fiber infrastructure, making it ideal for metropolitan area networks (MANs), inter-data center connections, and carrier-class applications. Key Performance Features: This transceiver operates on standard 9/125 singlemode fiber with duplex LC/UPC connectors, providing robust and industry-standard connectivity. The integrated forward error correction (FEC) technology ensures data integrity across maximum transmission distances, while the precision-engineered laser transmitter delivers consistent, reliable signal output. Operating across 0-70°C temperature ranges, it handles both controlled data center environments and outdoor installations. Compatibility and Integration: Designed as a drop-in replacement for Cisco QSFP-100G-ZR4-S and Q100-ZR4-S-EA modules, the JBX01496 integrates seamlessly into existing Cisco network architectures without requiring firmware modifications or extensive reconfiguration. Its QSFP28 form factor ensures compatibility with standard switch ports and host devices. Compliance and Safety: This transceiver exceeds stringent industry standards, including IEEE 802.3bm and QSFP28 MSA specifications. It carries multiple safety certifications including Class 1 laser compliance, FDA 21CFR 1040.10, TUV, and UL certification. Full RoHS and ELV directive compliance ensures environmental responsibility and regulatory adherence for global deployment. Build Quality and Reliability: Constructed with a precision metal case and professional-grade laser transmitter, the JBX01496 delivers exceptional durability and long-term reliability. Manufactured in Vietnam and China using quality-controlled processes, each unit undergoes rigorous testing to ensure performance specifications. Applications: Ideal for service providers, enterprise data centers, educational institutions, and government networks requiring long-distance optical connectivity. Perfect for backbone network upgrades, disaster recovery site connections, and campus network expansion.
