LPO is short for Linear Pluggable Optics (or Linear-drive Pluggable Optics), it is a potential technology to satisfy the low power consumption and high bandwidth demand of data centers like CPO (Co-packaged Optics). Currently, IPEC (The International Photonics & Electronics Committee) is focusing on cutting-edge optoelectronic technologies. Image source from LightCounting The following are the […]
Q1: What is the difference among the terms “QSFP56”, “QSFP200”, “200G QSFP” and “200G QSFP56”? A1: They all refer to the same transceiver type. The electrical data path interface of a 200G QSFP consists of 4 lanes, with each lane transmitting 50Gbit/s data. Each lane of a 200G QSFP is designed to handle up to […]
Q1: What are the SFP-DD and DSFP form factors? A1: The SFP-DD is short for Small Form-factor Pluggable – Double-Density and SFP-DD form-factor is defined by the SFP-DD MSA, while the DSFP is short for Dual Small Form-factor Pluggable and is defined by the DSFP MSA. They are a compact SFP-like form factor with 2x […]
Rule-1: When mating two MPO patch cords, it shall be an MPO male connector and an MPO female connector. Rule-2: For the standard MPO Connectors, changing the polarity, or adding or removing the guiding pins in the field is not allowed. Rule-3: MPO Female connector for direct connection to the optical module if it is […]
SWDM is short for Short Wavelength Division Multiplexing. it offers users an alternate solution for 40Gbps, 100Gbps, and higher connectivity over duplex multimode fiber. Some of the many advantages of SWDM are: Reach – up to 440m for 40G and 150m for 100G 40G SWDM can operate link distance up to 240, 350, and 440 […]
TARLUZ currently offers two 40G transceivers that operate over duplex multimode fiber, QSFP-40G-SWDM4, and QSFP-40G-SRBD transceivers. Both transceivers operate at multimode fiber and are widely deployed in the industry. QSFP-40G-SWDM4 and QSFP-40G-SRBD are using different technology, so they are not able to use each other. QSFP-40G-SWDM4 Transceiver TARLUZ 40G QSFP+ SWDM4 transceiver provides 40Gbps bandwidth […]
TARLUZ currently offers two 100G transceivers that operate over duplex multimode fiber, QSFP-100G-SWDM4, and QSFP-100G-SRBD transceivers. Both transceivers operate at multimode fiber reach 70m over OM3 fiber and 100m over OM4 fiber and are widely deployed in the industry. QSFP-100G-SWDM4 and QSFP-100G-SRBD are using different technology, so they are not able to use each other. […]
Cabling is important in the data center/central office. there are two main media used inside the stat center, copper and fiber, the following tables are information on copper and fiber used inside the data center, selecting the right media for the current application and future upgrade is important. Copper Category ISO Channel Class Maximum Bandwidth […]
D’SDSFP Dual Small Form-Factor Pluggable DSFP MSA is developing a SFP+/SFP28 compatible form factor for 5G Mobile applications DSFP has two TX/RX high speed pin pairs, instead of one TX/RX pin pair in SFP+/SFP28 DSFP is mechanically the same as SFP+/SFP28 modules DSFP host ports accept SFP+/SFP28 modules Some SFP+/SFP28 hardware control and alarm pins […]
The IEEE P802.3db 100 Gb/s, 200 Gb/s, and 400 Gb/s Short Reach Fiber Task Force has completed its last draft. The standard, which covers high-speed interconnect requirements over 50 and 100 m of multimode fiber. This standard will cover VCSEL based duplex 100G-per-lane transmission over short reach (SR) distances of up to 100 m and […]
