Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can I use this OSFP DR4 module for 400G breakout applications?
A: Yes. The 800G OSFP DR4 can be used in a breakout configuration to connect with two 400G DR4 modules or eight 100G DR1 modules, providing flexible scaling for your network fabric.
Q2: Is this module compatible with Arista or Cisco switches?
A: While this specific part is optimized for Huawei systems, we offer multi-platform firmware coding. Our modules are 100% tested in our lab for inter-compatibility with Cisco, Arista, Juniper, and Nvidia/Mellanox switches.
Q3: What is the benefit of the OSFP form factor over QSFP-DD?
A: OSFP is slightly larger and features an integrated heatsink, which allows for better thermal dissipation. This makes it the preferred choice for 800G and 1.6T AI clusters where power density is high.
Q4: What warranty and technical support do you provide?
A: We provide a 1-Year Warranty on all optical transceivers. If any quality issue occurs, we offer a free replacement service. Additionally, our technical team provides remote troubleshooting and configuration support for your specific networking environment.
