Explanation of the meaning of A and B in the XFP transceiver
2017-09-13
Recently, a friend asked, XFP transceiver model or transceiver module A, B What is the meaning of the letter? Today I will tell you about the transceiver A, B-side letters of the true meaning.
First of all, XFP transceiver according to the number of optical fiber core classification 2, one is single-mode dual-fiber XFP transceiver, one is single-mode single-fiber XFP transceiver.
We talked about A, B. Only single-mode single-fiber XFP transceivers will be used. Because the single-mode single-fiber transceiver is transmitted through a core fiber, then the transmitter and receiver are transmitted through a fiber core at the same time. In this case, to achieve normal communication must use two kinds of wavelengths of light to distinguish.
So the single-mode single-fiber transceiver optical module has two wavelengths, usually 1310nm / 1550nm, long-distance is 1490nm / 1550nm.
So that a pair of transceiver interconnection of the two ends will be different, one end of the transceiver to send 1310nm to receive 1550nm. The other end is the launch of 1550nm, receiving 1310nm.
So easy to distinguish between users, the general will use letters instead. There is A terminal (1310nm / 1550nm), B side (1550nm / 1310nm).
The user must use the AB pair to use. Do not connect AA or BB.
I believe everyone on the XFP transceiver A, B letters have been very clear meaning, if you need more XFP transceiver information please visit: http://www.fiberlandtec.com/

012019-10With the continuous development of 5G communication technology, 100G modules are gradually becoming popular. We know that there are many kinds of packages for 100G optical modules. From 2000 to now, the optical module package types have been rapidly developed. Its main package types are: GBIC, SFP, XENPAK, SNAP12, X2, XFP, SFP+, QSFP/QSFP+, CFP, CXP. In the fast-developing network era, some 100G optical modules avoid the risk of being eliminated, and upgraded and revised with the wave of the Internet, such as 100G CFP optical modules.

012019-101. What is the CWDM SFP? The CWDM optical module is an optical module using CWDM technology to implement the connection between the existing network device and the CWDM multiplexer/demultiplexer. When used with a CWDM multiplexer/demultiplexer, CWDM optical modules can increase network capacity by transmitting multiple data channels with separate optical wavelengths (1270 nm to 1610 nm) on the same single fiber.

012019-10AOC is the abbreviation of Active Optical Cables, which is called Active Optical Cables in Chinese. AOC active optical is to encapsulate two optical modules and cable together. Because the medium of transmission in the middle is optical cable, AOC optical module, which contains laser devices, has a higher price for DAC. However, its optical aperture is not exposed, it has high reliability, and its working distance can be customized for a long distance of less than 100 meters.

012019-10Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology is capable of transmitting data in an optical fiber using bit wavelength parallel transmission or string line transmission using the wavelength of the laser.It is widely used in different fields of communication networks, including long-distance backbone networks, metropolitan area networks (MANs), residential access networks, and local area networks (LANs).The DWDM optical module is the optical module that uses this technology, so the DWDM optical module has high bandwidth and long-distance transmission characteristics.
