Describes support for the DP08QSDD-ZRB-19B 800G-ZR+ coherent optics module, which enables high-capacity long-haul and data center interconnect links directly from the router port without external transponders.


A DP08QSDD-ZRB-19B optic is a QSFP-DD800 coherent pluggable module that

  • delivers 800-Gbps ZR/ZR+ transmission over amplified C-band DWDM networks

  • enables high-capacity long-haul and data center interconnect (DCI) optical links directly from the router port, and

  • eliminates the need for external transponders for long-distance DWDM connections.

Starting with Cisco IOS XR Release 25.4.1, the DP08QSDD-ZRB-19B optical module is supported in 88-LC1-36EH line cards.
