What type of fiber is required for this transceiver?

The transceiver works with single-mode optical fiber (SMF); multi-mode fiber is incompatible with the LR4 standard.

Is a media converter needed to connect to equipment without a QSFP+ port?

If the switch or router does not have a QSFP+ port, a media converter or a modular switch supporting this form factor will be required.

Does the transceiver guarantee a distance of exactly 10 km?

The 10 km distance is the maximum per the standard; the actual distance depends on fiber quality, the number of fusion splices, and connectors in the path.

QSFP+ 40GBASE-LR4 module, LC Duplex, range up to 10 km

The Pixietech QSFP+ 40GBASE-LR4 optical transceiver with an LC Duplex connector provides data transmission at 40 Gbit/s over single-mode optical fiber for distances up to 10 kilometers. It uses four-wavelength WDM technology and transmits the entire stream over a pair of single-mode fibers with an LC connector, making it optimal for building high-speed inter-site connections and backbone channels. The solution is in demand in telecommunications, large corporate networks, and operator networks of Uzbekistan.
