The QSA Module interoperates with all major optical modules and direct attached copper cable vendors. Its design assures minimum loss on the conversion path between the QSFP cage and the SFP+ receptacle. The high-speed data channel of the SFP+ receptacle is connected to lane 1 of the QSFP connector. The three remaining channels on the QSFP connector are not connected. With this adapter, customers have the flexibility to use any SFP+ module or cable to connect to a lower-speed port on the other end of the network. This flexibility allows a cost-effective transition to 40 Gigabit Ethernet by maximizing the use of high-density 40 Gigabit Ethernet QSFP platforms. This adapter supports all SFP+ optics and cable reaches. Compatible switch models and SFP+ modules. A list of SFP+ modules that can be plugged into the QSA module is provided in Table 1

It is qualified for 10GbE SFP+ and 1GbE SFP transceivers meeting the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver Multi-source Agreement (MSA). The QSA module provides a solution for integrating systems using different vendors’ equipment, is vendor agnostic and provides a direct path to the SFP port unit’s memory.
