Low-power optical module 400G landed price
Priced between $1,400 and $1,800 from reputable third-party vendors, this range represents the standard entry point for 400G adoption. DR4 and FR4 modules bridge the gap between data center rows and shorter campus links. 400G optical modules offer a range of technical advantages that make them well-suited for modern high-speed networks: High Bandwidth Density Each module supports 400 Gbps via 4×100Gbps or 8×50Gbps lanes, enabling dense connectivity without increasing port counts. Short-distance transceivers are available at lower cost, while long-distance LR4 modules are more expensive. From campus backbones to metro DWDM rings and hyperscale data centers, the cost of each 400g optical transceiver can swing hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
