NVIDIA Mellanox 100GBASE-DR1 LC-LC Fiber Optic Transceiver

The NVIDIA Mellanox 100GbE QSFP28 100GBASE-DR1 1310nm LC Duplex Transceiver is an optical module for linking compatible network equipment over fibre. It supports a data rate of 100 Gbit/s. The stated maximum link distance is 500 m. This capacity suits high-speed links in data-centre and enterprise network deployments. The module is a transceiver, not a standalone fibre-optic cable.

Its QSFP28 form factor is a key consideration when checking equipment compatibility. The optical interface operates at a wavelength of 1310 nm. It is specified for single-mode fibre, which is the fibre type to confirm for the intended link. The optical conductor material is glass fibre. Check that the host device and fibre connection support the stated interface before installation.
