The industrial optical module can meet the needs of large-scale industrial network deployment and can be applied to industrial switches. Industrial optical modules and industrial switches are often used in the places where the working environment is very bad. Today we will talk about their classification and application.

What is industrial optical module and industrial switch?

Industrial optical module refers to the optical module that can be used in the harsh high temperature difference (operating temperature is - 40 ℃ ~ 85 ℃) industrial environment. It has RGD function, strong durability and adaptability.

The operating temperature of the optical module is one of the most important parameters, which can affect other parameters of the optical module. The working temperature of the industrial optical module is - 40 ℃ ~ 85 ℃, which can work in the high temperature of 85 ℃ and the harsh environment of minus. In addition, the industrial optical module must adopt scene hardening component design in electrical components, shell and other aspects to ensure the service life of the module.

Industrial switch is also called industrial Ethernet switch, which is used in the field of industrial control. Because of the adopted network standard, it has good openness and wide application, can adapt to low temperature and high temperature, has strong anti electromagnetic interference, anti salt fog and strong anti-seismic. It is mainly used in industrial control automation, road traffic control automation, building automatic control system, mine automatic control system, oilfield control automation, hydropower station control automation, power system control automation, computer room monitoring system.

Types of industrial optical modules and industrial switches

1. Packaging type of industrial optical module:

Industrial SFP optical module, industrial SFP+ optical module, industrial SFP RJ45 optical module, industrial CWDM optical module, industrial DWDM optical module and industrial SFP28 optical module.

According to the different types of optical fiber, it can be divided into single-mode industrial optical module and multi-mode industrial optical module.

2. Industrial switch classification

² Industrial PoE switch

² Industrial non Poe switch

² Fiber convergence switch

² Managed ring switch

Industrial optical module and industrial switch solution

High sensitivity photodetectors are used in industrial optical modules, with sensitivity as low as - 11.1dbm, and the longest transmission can reach 40km, which can provide cost-effective long-distance data center interconnection for industrial Ethernet connection in harsh environment. The industrial optical module of ETU-Link has passed the high and low temperature aging test and temperature compensation (temperature compensation can ensure the laser works in the environment of - 40 ~ 85 ℃, the optical power is stable, the signal transmission is normal, and the consistency of the optical module is better.) Add heat sink glue, use industrial devices, and strictly follow industrial standards to produce. It can fully meet the connection requirements of industrial Ethernet, and ensure its stability, reliability and other performance.

For example, the 10G industrial optical module can use LC single-mode duplex fiber patch cord to realize the connection between two 10g industrial switches.

The power consumption of industrial optical modules is very low in the whole temperature range of - 40 ℃ to 80 ℃, which is an ideal choice for building green data center and reducing construction cost.
