3.1.1 Data Interfaces
The data interfaces use QSFP28 connectors. The full list of interfaces per system is provided in
Table 3, “Speed and Switching Capabilities”. Each QSFP28 port can be connected with a
QSFP28 cable or connector for 25/40/50/56/100GbE, or 1/10/25GbE when connecting through
QSFP28 to SFP28 (QSA) adapters, hybrid or split cables. The systems offer High Power/LR4
transceivers support (up to 3.5W) in all QSFP28 ports. Some QSFP28 ports support 4.5W trans
-
ceivers, as detailed in the following table:
Table 13 - High Power/LR4 Transceivers Support
The SFP28 ports in SN2410M/SN2410bM support Level II (up to 1.5W) transceivers.
