As the demand for bandwidth in enterprise applications such as data centers continues to boom, new transmission media must be developed continually to meet end user requirements. With next-generation 40 and 100 Gigabit Ethernet speeds on t…

Fiber jumpers continue to provide a cost-effective cabling solution for data centers, local area networks (LANs), and other enterprise applications. Singlemode fiber optic patch cords and multimode fiber optic patch cords are two options. …

Fiber optic patch cable is a simple fiber optic elements, consisting of a short length of optical fiber cable with a connector at each end. According to the optical connectors terminated on both ends, fiber jumpers can be divided into many…

Multi-mode fiber optic patch cable is a common used fiber jumper type. It has its own special advantages and applications. Knowing when to use a multi-mode fiber optic patch cable is very necessary for those who want to design a reliable a…

For many years, OM1 (62.5/125µm) and conventional OM2 (50/125µm) multi-mode fiber were widely deployed in premises applications. They easily support applications ranging from Ethernet to gigabit Ethernet and their relatively large core siz…

In communication networks, many transmission lines need bidirectional transmission. This need leads to the development of Bidirectional (BiDi) transceivers, which can transmit and receive data to/from interconnected equipment through a sin…

When reading parameters of an SFP transceiver, you may see words like "DOM". Do you know what's the meaning of "DOM"? And why should an SFP transceiver be with DOM? In this post, some detailed information about DOM will be given. What Is D…

The SFP transceiver modules are hot-pluggable I/O devices that plug into module sockets. The transceiver connects the electrical circuitry of the module with the optical or copper network. There are many choices of SFP modules. You may see…

SFP, small form-factor pluggable, a hot-swappable input/output device plugs into a Gigabit Ethernet port or slot. It is a popular industry format jointly developed and supported by many network component vendors. SFP transceivers have a wi…

Dramatically reducing 10G interconnectivity costs, the 10G SFP+ cables can provide inexpensive and reliable 10G speed connections using either SFP+ copper cables or SFP+ active optical cables (AOCs). SFP+ AOC is a cabling technology that a…
