Custom Universal 40G QSFP+ LX4 Module, Hybrid Compatibility
-
Adaptive Media: Features a rare dual-compatibility optical design supporting both Single-Mode and Multimode (SMF/MMF) fibers.
-
Flexible Routing: Reaches 150 meters over OM4 media and automatically extends to 2,000 meters when patched into single-mode fiber.
-
Wavelength Array: Powered by a 4-channel 1300nm-band CWDM laser matrix (1271nm-1331nm).
-
Simplifying Complexity: Standardizes connections with a Duplex LC interface, ending the chaos of mixed-fiber environments.
Product Overview
The LX4 architecture completely shatters the physical barrier between single-mode and multimode transmission. In legacy comprehensive campuses with heavily iterated and chaotic network conduits, engineers often struggle to identify the exact fiber type embedded in the walls. This 40G QSFP+ LX4 Module utilizes a broadband receiver and adaptive signal processing to automatically match the link media. It perfectly handles both short-range data hall jumps and medium-reach cross-zone interconnects using just one SKU.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does one module work on both multimode and single-mode fiber?
A: The LX4 utilizes a specialized CWDM optical engine (1270nm-1330nm) that is designed to couple light efficiently into both 9/125µm single-mode and 50/125µm multimode fiber cores.
Q: Do I need a mode-conditioning patch cord when using it on multimode fiber?
A: No. You can plug standard OM3 or OM4 LC duplex patch cords directly into the module.
Q: What is the maximum distance for each fiber type?
A: You will get up to 150m on OM4 multimode fiber, and up to 2km on OS2 single-mode fiber.
