Cisco QSFP-40G-PLRL4 Overview
Cisco SFP+ transceiver modules are compliant in all OEM applications. They are pre-configured with an application specific code to meet the requirement set forth by the router and switch OEMs. Cisco compatible transceivers perform, fit and function identically when compared to “original” transceivers. These transceivers fully comply with the multi-sourcing agreement (MSA) which enables them to work in all MSA compliant platforms. Cisco brand transceivers also function with other brands within the same network.
