Ascent’s QSFP-28-100G-LP-80 is multi-vendor MSA compatible 100GBASE-ZR4 QSFP28 (Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable 28) transceiver, operating over a pair of single-mode optical fibers with four independent optical communication lanes separated from each other using LAN WDM technology. This Module has a minimum guaranteed optical budget of 27 dB (with host FEC), which in most cases is enough to reach 80 km distance (with host FEC) and 40 km distance (without host FEC) using a single-mode cable. However, this distance is only an indicative parameter calculated for comfort of identification. Actual distance should be calculated by taking into account minimal optical budget and average attenuation of optical cabling in industry.
