The 400G QSFP-DD LR4 is a transceiver module designed for 10 km optical communication applications. This module can convert 8-channel 53.125 Gbps electrical data to 4-channel 106.25 Gbps optical signals, and multiplex them into a single channel for 425 Gbps optical transmission. Similarly, it optically de-multiplexes a 425 Gbps input into 4-channel signals, and converts them to 8-channel output electrical data on the receiver side.
The module incorporates 4 independent channels on CWDM4 1271/ 1291/1311/ 1331nm center wavelength, operating at 100G per channel. The transmitter path incorporates 4 independent EML drivers and EML lasers together with an optical multiplexer. On the receiver path, an optical de- multiplexer is coupled to a 4-channel photodiode array.
