Overview

The T1Nexus 100G QSFP28 (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable 28) Optical Transceiver Series provides enterprise-grade, high-density 100Gbps connectivity designed for data centre leaf-spine fabrics, core campus networks, service provider backbones, and high-performance computing (HPC) environments.

Utilising 4 x 25Gbps NRZ channels, T1Nexus QSFP28 modules deliver low-power, high-reliability links across multimode and singlemode fibre distances ranging from 70m up to 80km. Distributed locally by Frame across the UK and Ireland, every module is custom-coded and tested in-house to guarantee seamless integration with tier-1 switch and router platforms.

Key Product Features

  • High-Density 100G Performance: Compliant with IEEE 802.3bm/ba, SFF-8665, and SFF-8636 standards for standard QSFP28 ports.
  • Low Power Profiles: Optimised silicon architectures ensure typical power consumption below 3.5W per module to minimise rack cooling load.
  • Broad Media Range: Options covering SR4 (multimode MPO), CWDM4, PSM4, LR4, ER4 Lite, ZR4, and Single-Lambda 100G (FR1/LR1) optical interfaces.
  • Frame Aperto Multi-Vendor Coding: Pre-coded in the UK for native hardware recognition and real-time Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) across Cisco, Arista, Juniper, Dell, Edgecore, and HPE switches.
  • TAA-Compliant Options: Specific models available meeting Trade Agreements Act requirements for government, military, and regulated enterprise deployments.
  • UK-Based Stock & Support: Dispatched directly from Frame’s UK hub with standard 5-year advance-replacement warranty and UK technical support.
