Frequently Asked Questions
What is the DEM-QX10Q-LR4 used for?
The DEM-QX10Q-LR4 is a 40GBASE-LR4 QSFP+ optical transceiver for 40GbE uplinks over single-mode fiber. It supports links between network rooms or buildings in data center, enterprise and campus networks.
What fiber and connector does it use?
Use 9/125 µm duplex single-mode fiber with LC connectors. The transceiver uses four optical wavelengths to carry 40GbE over the duplex fiber link.
How far can the link reach?
The rated reach is up to 6.21 mi (10 km) over single-mode fiber. Actual reach depends on total optical loss across the link, including connectors, splices and patch panels.
Which switches can I use it with?
The module is supported on D-Link DXS-3610-54S and DXS-3610-54T uplink ports operating at 40GbE. For other equipment, confirm that the intended port supports the module and 40GBASE-LR4.
What should I confirm before deploying the link?
Check that both host ports support their respective optics at 40GbE, that the far-end optic uses 40GBASE-LR4, and that total fiber loss is within the link budget.
The module supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) for transmit and receive optical power, module temperature and supply voltage. Contact D-Link for switch-specific software or port requirements.
Can I replace the transceiver while the switch is powered on?
Yes. The module is hot-pluggable and can be installed or removed while the switch remains powered on. Removing the module interrupts the link it serves.
What’s included with the transceiver?
The DEM-QX10Q-LR4 transceiver is sold individually. Switches and fiber cabling are sold separately.
