NVIDIA Mellanox MMS1C00-C500 100GbE QSFP28 PSM4 Single-Mode Transceiver, up to 2km: This is a 100GbE QSFP28 PSM4 (Parallel Single Mode 4-lane) optical transceiver module for single-mode fiber Ethernet links up to 2 kilometers. The module operates over 4 parallel single-mode fibers in each direction. This is a transceiver module only; single-mode fiber patch cables and breakout assemblies are sold separately. This is a refurbished unit tested by T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS.
Engineering Context
The MMS1C00-C500 is a PSM4-class 100GBASE-PSM4 transceiver designed for inter-rack and inter-DC-room single-mode runs that exceed the reach of MMF-based SR4 modules. It uses 4 parallel lanes of single-mode fiber per direction at 25Gb/s NRZ per lane to deliver 100Gb/s aggregate. Single-mode fiber is required end-to-end. The module is RoHS compliant and uses the standard QSFP28 form factor.
Deployment & Use Cases
Inter-rack 100GbE links between rows over structured single-mode cabling. Building-to-building 100GbE within a campus where reach exceeds 100m. Spine-to-core uplinks in data center fabrics requiring single-mode reach. Replacement for SR4 short-reach optics where structured SMF cabling is already in place.
