40G QSFP SR4 and 40G QSFP BiDi at a Glance Before we go any further, it’s better to first obtain some basic information about 40G QSFP SR4 and 40G QSFP BiDi transceiver. As they both used to support short-range (SR) 40G connectivity, the major difference lies in the protocols, namely ...

Introduction to Fiber Optic Patch Panel As we all know, fiber optic patch panel is a device used to connect two fiber optic connectors in the fiber optic cabling system. Due to the variety of fiber connectors, there is also a variety of fiber optic patch panel(Read more about adapters here!). Why do...

Why Use Tunable DWDM SFP+ Transceivers? Tunable SFP+ is one kind of DWDM transceivers. It is commonly used in DWDM system. In the market, tunable SFP+ transceivers are often two to four times more expensive than DWDM SFP+ transceivers. Many may think DWDM SFP+ transceivers are enough in the DWDM sys...

What is 400G? A 400G optical module is a type of high-speed optical transceiver module that enables the transmission of data at a rate of 400 Gigabits per second (Gbps) over optical fibers. These modules are typically used in data center interconnects, long-haul and metro networks, and other high-sp...
