10/100BASE-T SFPDell QSFP-SR4-100GM Compatible 100G QSFP28 SR4 Transceiver Module
Built for hosts recognizing QSFP-SR4-100GM, this HT-manufactured QSFP28 module delivers 100G transmission at 850nm. Its rated reach is 100m, with MPO-12 as the physical interface. The specifications and engineering guidance below support structured fiber installations preserve a documented and serviceable optical channel, while keeping HT manufacture separate from the OEM cross-reference.

Applications and Optical Link Design
Typical deployments include switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and aggregation links inside a data hall or between adjacent equipment rooms. The MPO-12 interface connects to the specified multimode cabling, and the stated reach depends on fiber grade and link loss. Keep this interface on the matching multimode optical standard rather than connecting it directly to a single-mode wavelength or reach variant.
Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 100G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a QSFP28 housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.
The multimode channel should use the fiber grade associated with the stated 100m reach. Keep the MPO-12 end faces clean and avoid tight bends. Different multimode standards are not interchangeable merely because they share a connector.
Dell Compatibility and Factory Testing
Factory verification starts with the expected QSFP-SR4-100GM identity and finishes with an operating host link. EEPROM data, diagnostic visibility and the stated optical parameters are assessed together. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.
Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling
For this model, the specified transmit-power range is -8.4~2.4 dBm; receiver sensitivity is ＜-10.3 dBm; the stated optical power budget is 1.9dB. Digital diagnostics make later maintenance easier when baseline values are captured at installation. Save the initial readings with the port and OEM reference, then investigate meaningful changes rather than reacting to a single transient value. Diagnostic support depends on the host as well as the module, so unavailable fields should be confirmed with the platform documentation. Diagnostic monitoring is listed as Supported. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.
Structured Fiber Pathways and Serviceability
Treat the transceiver as part of the complete channel. Follow the intended patch-panel route, maintain bend control and leave service access around the port. Confirm connector polish and fiber type at every mated pair; a documented service allowance is preferable to excess slack concealed inside a rack. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate Dual Rate 103.1Gbps and 112Gbps, wavelength 850nm, rated reach 100m.
Ordering Information
Quote HT part number QSFP-SR4-100GM together with OEM reference QSFP-SR4-100GM and quantity. Add the host model and software release when pre-order verification is required. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Before packing, the module receives interface inspection, identification and link checks. Protective packaging avoids pressure on the connector and latch. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original Dell transceiver?
No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible alternative for equipment that specifies QSFP-SR4-100GM, not an original Dell-branded module.
Which fiber and connector are required?
Use MPO-12 with MMF. The specified maximum reach is 100m, subject to fiber quality and total link loss.
Can it be mixed with another wavelength or reach version?
Only when the two ends share the same optical standard, wavelength plan and supported data rate. Check the exact part numbers and link budget rather than relying only on the module form factor.
