QSFPliideseid
QSFP interfaces are a family of hot-swappable, high-density optical transceiver modules and the corresponding ports used to interconnect network devices. They provide high-bandwidth links between switches, routers, and storage systems, enabling 40 Gbit/s and higher data rates over short to long distances, depending on the variant. QSFP modules carry four electrical lanes and are designed to maximize port density in data centers and other high-performance networks.
Form factor and variants: The Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable (QSFP) design has evolved into several variants.
Connectivity and optics: QSFP modules are used with both fiber and copper connections. Optical variants employ
Applications and interoperability: QSFP interfaces are common in data centers, enterprise networks, and telecom backbones, supporting
