The difference between SFP dual fiber and BIDI
1. Number of optical ports
The single-fiber optical module has only one optical port, and is filtered by WDM technology and filtering technology in the optical module. It implements an optical port to receive information and send information.
Therefore, single fiber modules must be used in pairs. Single-fiber optical modules operate with the largest savings in fiber resources.
However, the dual-fiber optical module has two optical ports that can receive and transmit simultaneously. Two fiber connections are required.
2.Different wavelengths
BIDI SFP
Low speed: TX1310/RX1550nm; TX1550/RX1310nm; TX1490/RX1550nm; TX1550/RX1490nm; TX1310nm/Rx1490nm; TX1490nm/Rx1310nm
10G SFP+: TX1270/RX1330nm; TX1330/RX1270nm
Dual optical module
Low speed ：850nm；1310nm；1550nm
10G optical module：850nm；1310nm；1550nm
3.Different prices
The price of a single fiber optical module is higher than that of a dual fiber optical module.
The optical module of a single fiber needs to receive and transmit on one optical port, and saves half of the optical fiber resources compared with the dual fiber optical module.
SFP single mode and multimode difference
1. Transmission distance
Single-mode optical modules are often used for long-distance transportation, and the transmission distance is generally 150-200km.
However, multimode is used for short-distance transmission, generally below 2km.
2. Different wavelengths
The wavelength of a single-mode optical module is generally: 1310 nm, 1550 nm.
The wavelength of a multimode optical module is generally: 850 nm
3.The different prices
Single-mode optical modules have higher transmission distances and applications than multimodes due to different rates and wavelengths, so the price of a single module is higher than that of a multimode optical module.
4.The different light sources
The light source of the single mode optical module is an LD or an LED with a narrow spectral line, and the light source of the multimode optical module is a light emitting diode or a laser.
The above is the difference between the optical modules. The various optical modules mentioned are sold by our company.

012019-10With 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.

012019-101. 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.

012019-10AOC 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.
