True 40 gigs is rare period. Most of the time it is bandwidth limiting on a 100

Apparently I just remembered the big transport platforms using coherent 40G and 
100G and assumed there was a cheap variant, but there isn't.

Not aware of ACO/DCO in QSFP form factor. Inphi is doing 100G QSFP28 PAM4 DWDM 
for MS. Probably the best you will see for a while.
