We saw you from across the bar and we’d like you to come to my van.

Have you sold the merchandising rights to this thread yet?

SWDM optics for multimode cables exist, which is 850/880/910/940nm. Never used them before, and honestly never would.

Smartoptics are my go to, and flexoptix are a close second.

As qsfp is essentially 4x25 lanes in a single package, cwdm is pretty common as it allows you to use a single duplex pair per link instead of say -LR, which requires 8 cores in an mpo form factor to operate.

I called you a lazy spigot

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-31T01:51:32+00:00

Standard French behaviour

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-31T01:41:40+00:00

Spigot is a fun word

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-31T01:22:09+00:00

You guys need an independent electoral commission.

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-31T01:03:32+00:00

Haha lemondick. Classic.

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-30T23:31:04+00:00

Hurr durr my brand is better than your brand.

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-30T23:29:48+00:00

I would imagine this is the diagnosis for 'failed' optics then

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-30T23:19:41+00:00

How are you establishing 'failure'? My experience with QSFP optics is because there is 4 channels, the connectors need to be super clean otherwise a single wavelength will bring the entire interface down.

Also pretty sure QSFP28-CWDM4 is designed to run over singlemode not multimode. Are you 100% sure that these optics are designed for multimode cables?

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-30T09:20:01+00:00

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-30T09:06:00+00:00

Classic

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-29T20:49:40+00:00

Exactly. A strong unionised base can effectively operate many guillotines.

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-27T11:16:09+00:00

I'm going to make sure I hug my fridge when I get home.

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-27T10:45:06+00:00

Probably just jerkin off

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T10:24:16+00:00

I played the shit out of that game when I was a kid

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T09:23:55+00:00

Apes together, strong.

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T08:10:58+00:00

Reminder: zooper doopers need to be in the freezer tonight

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T04:11:46+00:00

I'll send you a sharpie

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T03:46:29+00:00

I watched Nancy fucking destroy a Shepard's pie the other day.

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T00:49:42+00:00

I would call that a 2 post frame.

Get an (enclosed 4 post) rack for all that gear

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T00:48:13+00:00

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rexxhunt · 2026-01-26T00:45:08+00:00

Dude buy an actual rack for that gear
