you are only comparing SFP transceiver cost. The reason why it is dead
is transport equipment and switch equipment you pretty much are burning
a 100G port to do 40g there are some 100G 2x40 transponders out there
but they are the same cost as a 200G 2x100G transponder so if you go to
order a 40G wave service it will cost you the same as a 100G maybe more
if they have to use an OTU4 to 40GLANPHY card. As well most switches
being deployed by providers are 100G/25G/10G and don't have 40G ports.
so you hae to burn a 100G port to provide 40G therefor the cost is
priced accordingly.
Is it dead in the data center space for the most part to because the
power requirements vs speed is horrible uses almost as much power as a
100G and only get 40% of the bandwidth. The power for a 25G is
comparable to 10G. Starting to see 25G IX connection options as well.
Don't worry you are going to start seeing a bunch more 25G options
coming out because the demand is growing. There are already companies
starting to sell 25G channelized DWDM optics. The price at the moment is
high because they are new and the demand is low, but will greatly reduce
the cost the more that the utilization grows.

That is up for debate but we'll see in a few years. I'd rather jump
to 40 than 25. You almost defeated your own point stating you have a
lot of 40G laying around. Price has come down on them and
transceivers are not as expensive either. Personally I'd rather jump
to 100 :)
40G transceivers I can get for most models for $55. (short range)
Same price for 25G! Why bother with 25?
Short range 100G are under $200 each.

25G will be far more common than 40G.
40G is dead and has been dead for years. I wish that wasn't so
because I have a lot of 40G switches that I'd love to connect to
things, but that's not going to happen.

Ugh.. I was wondering when the 40Gbps version was coming out. 25
is kinda a black sheep in the industry. Good luck matching
equipment with upstreams. I know they can get the cards but most
are moving to 40 or 100.
