Singlemode 40G HD Cassette
In high-density data center environments where fiber conservation and 40G throughput are paramount, iFiber Optix's Singlemode 40G HD Cassettes provide the ultimate transition for long-reach connectivity. These modules are specifically designed to bridge the gap between MPO-based trunking and high-speed QSFP+ optics.
Product Overview
Our Singlemode 40G HD Cassettes are engineered for seamless integration within QSFP rack solutions, facilitating the migration from 10G to 40G and beyond. These high-density modules feature internal fan-out assemblies that transition MPO/MTP connectors to LC duplex ports, allowing for efficient distribution of 40G (4x10G) signals over singlemode fiber.
Design Note: These cassettes fit into standard HD rack-mount enclosures, enabling rapid deployment while ensuring the low insertion loss required for long-distance singlemode spans.
