Thank all guys who responded me,

It was really helpful for us, and we will pick up some models and try to
evaluate those.
Probably OSI, FS.COM, FlexOptics, and Finisar will be candidates, of
course, other models sound great though.

Thanks,

Roy

Hi Ryugo,

I’m Eric Litvin, CEO of Luma Optics. We sell 1000s of 100G LR4.  Our price
is $800.00 ( yes it’s true $800.00 for 100G-LR4).  We can do this because
we buy 1000s of LR4 at a time and do big volumes. Ours are open eeprom and
we provide a device for free that enables you to flash the firmware and
turn up the part in any network environment.  I’ve been a Nanog member for
a long time and have many member references if you’d like to consider us.

Cheers,

Eric Litvin

Hey all,

Does anyone have a recommended model of 3rd party's "QSFP-100G-LR4-S" for
Cisco ASR and Nexus?

Cisco's original 100G SFP costs us an arm and a leg, so we want to try to
use 3rd party 100g SFP.
But we are not sure which manufacturer's SFP is reliable or has good
performance.

Does anyone have experience?

Many thanks,

Roy
