Fiber optic transceivers for transmitters and receivers

2017-10-07
Fiber optic transceivers Transmitters and receivers, also known as fiber transmitters and transmitters. We want to understand the concept of transmitter and receiver, you need to first understand the role of fiber optic transceivers and functions.

The role of fiber optic transceivers is to convert electrical signals into optical signals, transmitted through the optical fiber, the other end of the optical signal into electrical signals, and then access the router, switches and other equipment.

Fiber optic transceivers are divided into two kinds of fiber and single fiber, fiber optic transceivers are generally used in pairs.

 If it is double fiber. The transmitter's transmitter (TX) is connected to the receiver (RX) of the other transceiver. If it is a single fiber transceiver. There is only one optical port, both TX and RX. So what is the transmitter and receiver?

We can understand: If it is network communication, the client for the transmitter, the central room for the receiver

If it is optical fiber security monitoring, the camera front for the transmitter, the monitoring center for the receiver.

If it is fiber optic data acquisition, connect the data collector to the fiber optic transceiver for the transmitter, the data processing center of the fiber optic transceiver as the receiver.

    With the continuous development of 5G communication technology, 100G modules are gradually becoming popular. We know that there are many kinds of packages for 100G optical modules. From 2000 to now, the optical module package types have been rapidly developed. Its main package types are: GBIC, SFP, XENPAK, SNAP12, X2, XFP, SFP+, QSFP/QSFP+, CFP, CXP. In the fast-developing network era, some 100G optical modules avoid the risk of being eliminated, and upgraded and revised with the wave of the Internet, such as 100G CFP optical modules.

    1. What is the CWDM SFP? The CWDM optical module is an optical module using CWDM technology to implement the connection between the existing network device and the CWDM multiplexer/demultiplexer. When used with a CWDM multiplexer/demultiplexer, CWDM optical modules can increase network capacity by transmitting multiple data channels with separate optical wavelengths (1270 nm to 1610 nm) on the same single fiber.

    AOC is the abbreviation of Active Optical Cables, which is called Active Optical Cables in Chinese. AOC active optical is to encapsulate two optical modules and cable together. Because the medium of transmission in the middle is optical cable, AOC optical module, which contains laser devices, has a higher price for DAC. However, its optical aperture is not exposed, it has high reliability, and its working distance can be customized for a long distance of less than 100 meters.

    Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology is capable of transmitting data in an optical fiber using bit wavelength parallel transmission or string line transmission using the wavelength of the laser.It is widely used in different fields of communication networks, including long-distance backbone networks, metropolitan area networks (MANs), residential access networks, and local area networks (LANs).The DWDM optical module is the optical module that uses this technology, so the DWDM optical module has high bandwidth and long-distance transmission characteristics.
