Coming back to this thread a little - what are folk seeing where 3rd party networks are involved? Are you able to convince providers to run FR optics, where LR4 are still commonplace? Mark.

Tangentially related to xR1, have any of you started deploying SN connectors on your 400G head-ends? It looks like a pretty clever technology, adding discrete connectors per lane, but curious what the adoption has been thus far. On Tue, Apr 4, 2023 at 8:55 AM Mikael Abrahamsson via NANOG wrote:

We are willing to do 100G-LR1 if someone asks these days. It lets us be able to roll it up into 400G optics on our side as appropriate. The big difference in DR/FR is the receiver sensitivity, they are all compatible optically, so it’s really about the DR/FR being yield rejects for LR1.

2023-03-31 Thread Jared Mauch
The common tech is 100G-LR4 these days - I'm wondering how many operators are supporting the LR1 to allow its use on 400G and future 800G optics as those use breakout to support 100G ports. Would you rather do a 400G port on a router vs 100LR1? Curious what others think. Sent via RFC1925
