SFP Cage Assembly Single Port QSFP28 Cage Assembly mates wtih QSFP28 Connector
A series of QSFP28 Cage assemblies without integrated connectors supplied by GLGNET, Widely used in the networking, telecommunication and data centre industries. The next generation of high-speed I/O devices, supporting 40G to 100G Ethernet Application. The Press Fit copper alloy cages offer EMI spring or EMI gasket variants and are fully backward compatible with existing QSFP optical modules ( Transceiver ) and cable assemblies.
QSFP28 Transceivers are mainly used for 40G to 100G Ethernet Application, the compact design, low power consumption, and low cost make it the first option in 100G Ethernet Application;
GLGNET QSFP28 Cage is Compatible with next Types of QSFP28 Transceiver ( Optical Module )
Except For That Above Types of QSFP28 Transceiver, GLGNET QSFP28 Cages also are compatible with Cisco Huawei Products;
GLGNET also have other Variety Products: SFP Cages, QSFP cages, SFP plus Cages, QSFP plus Cages, SFP28 Cage, etc.
In addition GLGNET support to custom different SFP cages, 1 x n or 2 x n structure, different heat emission Hole, different Mount PIN, different Press fit PIN Length, with or without light pipes, with or without heat Sink, and so on, and GLGNET also support to make Integrated SFP Cage Connector.

7. Learning More
QSFP transceivers are available with a variety of transmitter and receiver types, allowing users to select the appropriate transceiver for each link to provide the required optical reach over multi-mode or single-mode fiber. QSFP modules are commonly available in several different categories:
4 x 1 Gbit/s QSFP
The original QSFP document specified four channels carrying Gigabit Ethernet, 4GFC (FiberChannel), or DDR InfiniBand.
4 x 10 Gbit/s QSFP+
QSFP+ is an evolution of QSFP to support four 10 Gbit/sec channels carrying 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 10GFC FiberChannel, or QDR InfiniBand. The 4 channels can also be combined into a single 40 Gigabit Ethernet link. It is usually for the application of Data center, 40G Ethernet, Infiniband, and other communications standards.
4 x 14 Gbit/s QSFP+ (QSFP14)
The QSFP14 standard is designed to carry FDR InfiniBand, SAS-3. or 16G Fibre Channel
4 x 28 Gbit/s QSFP+ (QSFP28)
The QSFP28 standard is designed to carry 100 Gigabit Ethernet, EDR InfiniBand. or 32G Fibre Channel. This transceiver type is also used with direct-attach breakout cables to adapt a single 100GbE port to four independent 25 gigabit ethernet ports (QSFP28-to-4x-SFP28). Sometimes this transceiver type is also referred to as "QSFP100" or "100G QSFP" for sake of simplicity.
