The HYTOPTODEVICE T-DQ8FNS-N00-M pluggable transceiver is meticulously tested for 100% seamless integration with:
NVIDIA Spectrum Switches: SN4410, SN4600, SN4600C, SN4700.
Enterprise Ethernet Gear: Compatible with Arista, Cisco, Juniper, and Dell switches that support standard 400G QSFP-DD ports.
Operating Systems: Fully recognized by NVIDIA Onyx, Cumulus Linux, and SONiC without requiring "unsupported transceiver" overrides.
400G Ethernet Switching: Primary short-reach interconnect for NVIDIA Spectrum SN4000 series switches.
High-Density Breakout: Supports 400G to 2x200G-SR4 or 400G to 8x50G-SR breakout configurations for linking switches to legacy servers.
AI Cluster Connectivity: Ideal for high-bandwidth, low-latency inter-rack cabling within GPU compute clusters.
Short-Reach DCI: Cost-effective solution for interconnecting neighboring server rows over multimode fiber.
| NO. | Reach | Module Type | Fiber Type | Interface / Connector | Core Application & Best Use Case |
| 1 | < 7m | 400G DAC / ACC | Copper (Direct Attach) | QSFP-DD / OSFP | Intra-Rack (Server to ToR): Ultra-low latency, near-zero power consumption, and the lowest cost. Best for connecting servers (NICs) directly to Top-of-Rack switches. |
| 2 | < 30m | 400G AOC | Active Optical Cable | Built-in (Direct) | Inter-Rack / Clusters: Lighter and more flexible than copper. Widely used for high-density interconnects within AI compute clusters (e.g., NVLink architectures). |
| 3 | < 100m | 400G SR8 | Multi-Mode (MMF) | MPO-16 / MPO-24 | Short-Reach Backbone: The traditional multi-mode choice. Uses 8 channels (50G PAM4 per lane). The module cost is low, making it ideal for massive short-distance deployments. |
| 4 | < 100m | 400G SR4.2 (BiDi) | Multi-Mode (MMF) | MPO-12 | Fiber-Saving Short Reach: Utilizes bidirectional wavelength-division multiplexing to deliver 400G over just 8 fibers (MPO-12), cutting fiber cabling costs in half compared to SR8. |
| 5 | 500m | 400G DR4 ⭐ (Mainstream) | Single-Mode (SMF) | MPO-12 | Leaf-Spine Architecture Workhorse: The most recommended module inside modern cloud data centers. Supports 1-to-4 breakout (splitting a 400G port into four 100G DR links) for maximum flexibility. |
| 6 | 2km | 400G FR4 ⭐ (Mainstream) | Single-Mode (SMF) | Duplex LC | Core / Inter-Building Aggregation: Uses CWDM (Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) to multiplex 4 wavelengths over a single pair (2 fibers) of SMF. Drastically reduces expensive fiber patching infrastructure over longer runs. |
| 7 | 10km | 400G LR4 | Single-Mode (SMF) | Duplex LC | Campus Backbone: Designed for long-range high-speed backbones linking different buildings across a large campus or connecting hyper-scale core layers. |
| 8 | 40km - 120km | 400ZR / 400ZR+ | Single-Mode (SMF) | Duplex LC | Data Center Interconnect (DCI): Employs coherent optical technology for metro DCI networks, allowing direct switch-to-switch connections over long distances without external transponder chassis. |
