The Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) is renowned as the prevailing format for optical transceivers, yet it does possess certain constraints. SFP transceivers exhibit hot-swappable and pluggable characteristics, enabling seamless installation and removal. Typically employed in 1Gbps connections, SFP utilizes various connectors including LC Duplex, LC Simplex, RJ45, and SC Simplex, facilitating transmission distances of up to 160km.
SFP+ represents an enhanced iteration of the SFP standard, boasting increased data capabilities over its predecessor. With a maximum transmission speed of 16Gbps, SFP+ is commonly harnessed in Ethernet connections or 10Gbps fiber networks. Unlike SFP, SFP+ employs a distinct encoding method, enabling it to convey more data within a comparable hardware framework. Data transmission rates are available at 8Gbps, 10Gbps, and 16Gbps, offering versatility for various network requirements. SFP+ modules can span distances ranging from 30m to 120km, and they are compatible with a range of connector types such as LC Duplex, LC Simplex, and RJ45.
SFP28 represents an advancement in speed over its predecessor, the SFP+ form factor. Its electrical and mechanical specifications were established in 2014 under the SFF Committee document SFF-8402, alongside earlier specifications such as SFF-8472 and SFF-8432. SFP28 is specifically designed to support applications requiring speeds ranging from 25Gb/s to 28Gb/s, including 25Gb/s Ethernet and 32GFC Fibre Channel.
The QSFP+ functions similarly to other QSFP-style transceivers, supporting data rates of 40Gbps and higher. It is an Enhanced Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable (QSFP+) transceiver, featuring four channels and hot-pluggable capabilities. Compatible with LC Duplex and MPO-12 fiber connectors, the QSFP+ offers larger dimensions compared to SFP+ transceivers and can cover distances of up to 40km. It remains the predominant form factor for achieving data rates of 40Gbps.
The QSFP28 (Quad Small Form Pluggable) transceiver form factor was introduced to facilitate multi-lane (quad) optical transceivers, such as those used in 100GbE and 128GFC, accommodating various optical connectors including 4+4 MPO and duplex LC. Developed in 2013, QSFP28 supports electrical interfaces with speeds ranging from 25Gb/s to 28Gb/s per lane, catering to applications like 100Gb/s Ethernet, 128GFC Fibre Channel, and EDR InfiniBand. Its specifications are publicly defined by SFF Committee standards SFF-8636 and SFF-8665. QSFP28 has become the standard interface for 100G applications, offering configurations ranging from 100m using multimode to 80km using single-mode.
The QSFP56 standard, established in 2019, represents a significant leap in data transfer rates compared to its predecessor, QSFP28, achieving a maximum speed of 200 Gbps. This enhanced performance is achieved through parallel fibers and 8 x 25G wavelengths, or by leveraging PAM4 modulation and an internal multiplexer to transmit 50G over 4 wavelengths. QSFP56 transceivers come in various configurations, utilizing OM4 for distances up to 100m and OS2 for distances of up to 10km. Supported connectors include LC or MPO-12.
The QSFP-DD (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable Double Density) standard, designed to be backward compatible with previous QSFP versions, revolutionizes high-speed connectivity with an additional row of contacts, allowing for an 8-lane electrical interface. Compatible with LC and MPO-16 connectors, QSFP-DD facilitates seamless integration into various network architectures. Furthermore, it introduces a new connector – the CS connector, featuring 2 x CS Duplex connectors on a single transceiver. This innovative design supports breakout applications for 2x100G and 2x200G connections.
OSFP (Octal Small Form Factor Pluggable) type 800G transceivers are a new generation of optical transceivers designed to meet the increasing demands for higher data rates and greater bandwidth in data centers and telecommunications networks. The 800G transceiver line is used for data center networking and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications such as supercomputer clustering. They offer the ultimate flexibility with support for both InfiniBand and Ethernet networks. The OSFP form factors with choices of a finned top or closed top integrated heatsink and are available in distances of up to 100 meters over multimode fiber or up to 2km over single-mode fiber.
