If you are the first time to buy optical transceivers, you might be confused with "DDM", "DOM" or "RGD". What are they? Today, ETU-Link will describe in detail the functions of these three types of optical modules. What is DDM? DDM means Digital Diagnostic Monitoring. It is the technique used in the optical module so that users can monitor the real-time parameters of the module. Including modules’...

BIDI optical module only has one optical port, just need one fiber can simultaneously transmit and receive optical signals, is a solution to save fiber resources. BIDI optical module uses WDM technology to realize the bidirectional transmission of optical signals on one optical fiber. Optical module usually has two ports, the TX is the transmitting port, and the RX is the receiving port. BIDI modu...

With the network market gradually developed from 10G to 40G and 100G, 40G and 100G optical devices have also been widely used in various fields. In the next few years, 100G products will continue to be popular and gradually be widely accepted by the market. 100G CFP series optical transceiver have three package forms: CFP, CFP2 and CFP4 optical transceiver. The 100G CFP optical module is an outlin...

As we all know, the 40G SR4 QSFP+ optical module is the ideal solution for short-range interconnection in 40G networks and has many advantages, but the 40G QSFP+ AOC also has similar function of optical module and is not inferior to the 40G SR4 QSFP+ module or even can replace it to transmit signals. Since both can be 40G short-distance interconnection, then what are the differences between them? ...

100G has a variety of packaging forms, including CFP/CFP2/CFP4, CXP and QSFP28. Among these different 100G packaging forms, QSFP28 optical module has the advantages of high port density, low power consumption and low cost, so it has become the main packaging form of 100G network. Therefore, we will focus on four types of 100G QSFP28 optical modules today. 1.100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 optical transce...

Today let's learn about the MPO Patch cord. Last time one of our customer bought 100G SR4 MPO 100M, compatible with Juniper QFX5110 Switch.   1.How to connect the 2 transceivers in 2 switches with a patch cord directly? It's a question for him. So I gave him a solution, like the following picture shows. ①we imagine you use Juniper QFX5110-32Q to test the modules. ②100G SR4 MPO ...
