The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Cisco QSFP-DD and OSFP 800G ZR/ZR+ digital coherent optics modules enable 800G traffic over amplified Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing (DWDM) links up to 120 km for 800ZR and over 1000 km for 800G ZR+.
Cisco® QSFP-DD and OSFP 800G ZR/ZR+ coherent optics modules enable 800G traffic over amplified DWDM links up to 120 km for 800ZR and over 1000 km for 800G ZR+.
Leveraging the latest CMOS and coherent technology innovations, Cisco 800G-capable coherent optics can transmit a single wavelength of 800G traffic directly from a router or switch port up to 120 km for 800ZR in a Data Center Interconnect (DCI) application, or beyond 1000 km over existing DWDM networks with 800G ZR+.
The 800G QSFP-DD and OSFP coherent optics expand Cisco Routed Optical Networking applications to include 800G links.
The 800ZR modules leverage the Optical Internetworking Forum (OIF) Implementation Agreement requirements and are ideally positioned for single-span DCI applications. The 800G ZR+ modules leverage the industry-standard OpenROADM interoperable Probabilistic Constellation Shaping (PCS) mode for high-performance interoperability and reaches extending beyond 800ZR. The 800G ZR+ modules are ideal for metro or regional data center and service provider interconnects.
The Cisco 800G QSFP-DD coherent optics modules are mechanically compliant with the QSFP-DD Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), and the Cisco 800G OSFP optical modules are mechanically compliant with the OSFP MSA. The media interface is a duplex LC connector. Both C-band and L-band are supported.
