Our procurement team is looking to deploy 500+ pieces for a new campus network. Do you guys offer bulk discounts for large rollouts?

Yes, we do! For B2B orders over 100 units, we provide tiered volume pricing. For a 500+ piece deployment, please contact our sales team directly, and we’ll ensure you get the absolute best rate to optimize your project budget.

We have outdoor cabinets in Texas where summer heat is brutal. Can this module truly handle extreme temperatures without dropping packets?

Yes, this is a true industrial-grade transceiver. It is specifically engineered to operate flawlessly in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C. Your outdoor base station backhaul will remain perfectly stable.

Do these transceivers fully comply with IEEE 802.3 and SFF-8436 standards? We need them for strict enterprise compliance audits.

Yes, they are 100% compliant with both IEEE 802.3 40GBASE-SR4 and the MSA SFF-8436 standards. You can confidently deploy them in highly regulated environments knowing they meet all global networking protocols.

We run a mix of Cisco Nexus and Arista switches in our DC. Will these 40G modules communicate smoothly across different OEM brands?

Absolutely! The LQ-M8540-SR4I supports strict multi-brand interoperability. We've rigorously tested them to link Cisco, Arista, and even HPE or Dell switches natively without any protocol mismatch or link-drop issues.
