The HPE 100GbE QSFP28 LC DR1 500m Transceiver is engineered for data centers and enterprise networks that demand scalable, high-performance interconnects. This 100 Gigabit Ethernet module leverages the compact QSFP28 form factor with an LC duplex connector to deliver efficient, low-latency connectivity between compute nodes and switch fabrics. Ideal for spine-leaf architectures, data-center interconnects, and high-density top-of-rack deployments, this transceiver is designed to simplify cabling while maximizing port density and network reliability. With a 500-meter reach on single-mode fiber (SMF) and a 1310 nm operating window, it enables robust longer-distance links without extensive mid-span infrastructure, helping you optimize both performance and total cost of ownership.

  • High-bandwidth, low-latency 100GbE connectivity: This transceiver enables 100 gigabit-per-second data transfer, supporting bandwidth-hungry applications such as high-performance computing, AI workloads, virtualization, and large-scale storage networks. Its optimized QSFP28 design minimizes signal loss and allows for dense aggregation in data center cores, spine-leaf fabrics, and multi-hop uplinks, improving overall network efficiency and application performance.
  • QSFP28 form factor with LC duplex connector: The compact QSFP28 package delivers 4×25 Gbps lanes that aggregate to 100Gbps, while the LC duplex fiber connector ensures compatibility with standard single-mode fiber cabling. This combination balances port density and fiber management to optimize rack space, cabling simplicity, and ease of maintenance in densely packed data centers.
  • 500-meter reach on single-mode fiber (SMF): Designed for data-center interconnects and campus networks, the DR1 specification supports longer distance links without mid-span repeaters. The 1310 nm wavelength provides efficient transmission over SMF with low attenuation, delivering stable, reliable performance for inter-rack and cross-data center deployments.
  • Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) and reliability: Integrated DDM support provides real-time health data, enabling proactive monitoring, faster fault isolation, and predictive maintenance. This translates to higher uptime, easier capacity planning, and more predictable performance as your network grows or undergoes upgrades.
  • Energy-efficient, hot-swappable design for easy deployment: The transceiver is built for data-center environments, prioritizing energy-efficient operation and hot-swappability. In supported configurations, you can swap modules without powering down the entire system, reducing maintenance windows and improving operational continuity during upgrades or scale-outs.

How to install HPE 100GbE QSFP28 LC DR1 500m Transceiver

  • Power down the device or follow hot-swap procedures as permitted by your network equipment, and verify that the switch or router supports QSFP28 DR1 100G modules.
  • Remove any existing transceiver from the QSFP28 slot by releasing latches and applying even pressure to avoid damage.
  • Align the new transceiver with the QSFP28 slot, ensuring the connector orientation matches the port, then gently slide it in until it seats securely.
  • Attach the LC duplex fiber cable to the transceiver, ensuring correct polarity and avoiding sharp bends or excessive torque on the fiber during routing.
  • Power up the device (if required) and verify link status in the switch management interface, checking for a stable 100G link and healthy diagnostics data from DDM.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What is the HPE 100GbE QSFP28 LC DR1 500m transceiver used for? A: It provides 100 Gbps connectivity over single-mode fiber for data centers, ideal for link aggregation, spine-leaf architectures, and data-center interconnects between switches and compute nodes.
  • Q: What distance can I reach with this transceiver? A: Up to 500 meters on standard single-mode fiber (SMF) using 1310 nm optics, making it suitable for short-to-mid-range interconnects within data centers and between adjacent racks or tiers.
  • Q: Is Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) supported? A: Yes, DDM support is included, providing real-time optical link status, including temperature, bias current, output power, and other health metrics for proactive maintenance.
  • Q: Will this transceiver work with my switch or router? A: The module is designed to be compatible with switches and routers that support QSFP28 100G DR1 modules and 1310 nm SMF links; always verify vendor compatibility, firmware requirements, and port configurations before purchasing.
  • Q: How should I maintain and clean the LC connectors? A: Use proper fiber cleaning tools and lint-free wipes with appropriate cleaning solutions following standard telecom cleaning guidelines to ensure optimal optical performance and reduce insertion loss.

So comfy
Size: King (Pack of 1), Style: Standard Loft (4" - 5")
I spent time looking up/watching videos on pillows for neck pain and this one comes up a lot. I’m someone that used to wake up every few weeks with a stiff neck so bad it could make me cry at work. I haven’t had that happen once after months of using this pillow. I look forward to laying my head down on it every night. It’s a luxury experience every time. I think what it does so well is maintain its shape. You can really squish it up how you want and it stays there even after hours. Moldable but somehow still firm. It’s expensive but to me the value is there because I no longer get crazy neck pain from sleep. Worth trying it out for sure. Btw I was stuck between this is and Purple brands couple top end options. I never got around to trying them because I tried this one first and was very satisfied! Feb 2026. Still use it every night and it's still protecting me from neck pain I used to get from sleeping. It's held up amazing. Hope to use it for many more years.
