Classification and Specifications of Cisco Transceivers

Cisco transceivers can be classified according to different standards.

Depending on transmission rates, the transceivers are classified into 400G, 100G, 40G, 25G,  10G, 1G, and 100M transceivers.

Depending on modes, the transceivers are classified into single-mode and multi-mode transceivers.

Depending on encapsulation types, the transceivers are classified into: QSFP-DD, QSFP, CPAK, GBIC,CFP, CFP2, CXP, SFP28, SFP+, XFP, X2 transceivers.

In this article, Cisco transceivers are mainly classified by transmission rates.

Transmission rate: 100M

Transmission rate: 1G

Transmission rate: 10G

Transmission rate: 25G

Transmission rate: 40G

Transmission rate: 100G

Transmission rate: 400G

    The QSFP28 standard is designed to carry 100 Gigabit Ethernet, EDR InfiniBand. or 32G Fibre Channel. This transceiver type is also used with direct-attach breakout cables to adapt a single 100GbE port to four independent 25 gigabit ethernet ports (QSFP28-to-4x-SFP28). Sometimes this transceiver type is also referred to as "QSFP100"…
