Speaking of PON optical modules, let's first understand what PON is. Generally speaking, PON refers to a passive optical fiber network, which is an important way for broadband access network services to be carried. PON technology originated in 1995. Later, according to the difference between the data link layer and the physical layer, PON technology was gradually subdivided into APON, EPON, and GP...

Optical modules will go through strict testing and quality inspection procedures before shipment, such as material testing, parameter testing, aging testing, real machine testing, end-face testing, etc. The results of all test items must reach the standard level, otherwise the optical module will be returned to the production line to re-adjust. Understanding these tests will help you distinguish t...

According to the working temperature range, optical modules can be divided into commercial (0℃ - 70℃), expansion (- 20℃ - 85℃), industrial (- 40℃ - 85℃). Generally, only commercial optical module is needed for indoor optical module, but industrial optical module is needed if the optical module is used in outdoor environment with uncertain and fluctuating temperature (such as remote mountain area, ...

The previous storage technology only uses the storage device as an auxiliary device of the server. The large-capacity data exchange between servers can only rely on traditional networks, and cannot adapt to the development of IT technology in terms of speed, security, cross-platform sharing, and unlimited expansion. Under such circumstances, SAN technology came into being. Fibre Channel SCSI techn...
