How to use optical patch cord correctly?
2017-08-27
Both optical patch cord and optical transceiver have single mode / multimode. If the collocation is wrong when using, it will lead to the parameter error of the optical modules. How to match the use of patch cord and optical transceiver? Today, we will share the knowledge with you, hope that can will be helpful for you!
What are the differences between single mode and multimode optical modules?
The wavelength of single mode modules are 1310nm and 1550nm, transmission distance can up to 160KM. A metropolitan area network that is commonly used for long distance and relatively high transmission rates.
The wavelength of single mode modules is 850nm, transmission distance can only up to 2KM. Used in short-distance transmissions.
What are the differences between single mode and multimode optical optical fiber?
Single mode fiber transmission has high frequency bandwidth, long transmission distance and high cost; The core diameter is small, usually is 9/125um; Dispersion is small, allowing only one mode to transmit. Single mode optical fiber can transmit optical fiber directly to the center, generally used for long distance data transmission.
Multimode fiber has low transmission speed and short distance, but its cost is relatively low; With a larger diameter, usually is 50 or 62.5 um; The dispersion is large, hundreds of mode transmissions are allowed. Multimode fibers are often used in short distance data transmission.
Optical modules and patch cords must be properly matched for normal use. Below we will list the results of mashup.
If the optical fiber in the data center are all multimode, then you'd better use multimode optical modules, single mode and multimode can’t be mixed. Because the core diameter of single-mode fiber and multimode fiber is very different, it will cause too much loss when matching.
After reading this article, believe that you will have a certain understanding on how to match the patch cords and modules!

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.
