Rectangular QSFP+ transceiver module with MTP/MPO-12 port and light-grey finish

AEONS

AEONS 40G QSFP+ PLRL4 1310nm 2km DOM MTP/MPO-12 SMF 2 in 1 accessory

SKU CH-GTW8-E9P3X

40G QSFP+ PLRL4 transceiver delivers four 10G lanes over single-mode fibre up to 2km with MTP/MPO-12 connectors

  • 40 Gbps aggregate throughput via four 10 Gbps lanes
  • 1310 nm wavelength reaches 2 km over OS2 single-mode fibre
  • MTP/MPO-12 connector enables 4×10G breakout cabling
  • Digital diagnostics monitoring over I²C for real-time link health
  • Operates from 0 °C to 70 °C (32 °F to 158 °F)

What this module does

This 40G QSFP+ PLRL4 transceiver converts a single 40-gigabit lane into four independent 10-gigabit channels over single-mode fibre. It is built for network engineers linking Arista or Brocade switches across campus or metro spans up to two kilometres.

The spec that decides fit

The module uses an MTP/MPO-12 connector and expects a 12-fibre parallel-to-duplex breakout cable to reach four 10GBASE-LR ports. Without that exact cabling the 4x10G breakout cannot be realised.

Capacity and headroom

Four 10G lanes give 40G aggregate throughput with digital diagnostics monitoring across the 0 to 70 °C operating range. The 1310 nm optics are rated for 2 km on OS2 fibre; longer reaches or higher lane counts need a different transceiver.

Questions about this item

What does the 40G rating mean when the module is installed in a switch?

It delivers 40 Gbps aggregate throughput using four 10 Gbps lanes over single-mode fibre.

How does the MTP/MPO-12 interface limit the connection?

The 12-fibre MTP/MPO connector requires a breakout cable to split the 40G signal into four duplex 10G links.

What physical space and fibre type does the module need?

It fits a standard QSFP+ cage and runs on OS2 single-mode fibre up to 2 km.
