Optical module package type

2017-08-27
The optical module as a light components for the modern data center, the market demand is becoming more and more big, the classification of the optical module, according to the rate can be divided into 10G, 40G and 100G; according to the model is divided into single-mode and multimode; in accordance with the conditions of use for hot plug and plug is not a cold, the most common is the classification in accordance with the package.
Optical module package type
What is the light module package?

Popular said optical module package refers to optical module shape, with the progress of science and technology, optical module packaging is a step in the evolution of volume is gradually become smaller, certainly more than the appearance of changes in speed, power, distance, cost and other aspects develops continuously.
 
The optical module common package type 1*9, SFF, GBIC, SFP, XFP, SFP+, QSFP+ and X2, XENPAK and so on, in front of three package types now less used, here mainly introduce several types of back light module package.

SFP package

SFP optical module is a small pluggable optical module, the highest number rate up to 155M/622M/1.25G/2.125G/4.25G/8G/10G, usually connected with the LC jumper.

SFP optical module includes Baizhao Gigabit SFP, SFP, BIDI SFP, CWDM SFP and DWDM SFP, each with a light module after compatibility test strictly, ensure product reliability, stability, fully compatible with various brands of switches and other equipment.

SFP+ package

The appearance of SFP+ optical module and SFP optical module is the same, only support the transmission rate can reach 10G, commonly used in the short distance. Compared with the XFP optical module, SFP+ no internal CDR module, so the volume and power consumption of SFP+ is smaller than XFP.

QSFP+ package

QSFP+ optical module is a four channel small hot pluggable optical module, support is connected with the MPO and LC optical fiber jumper, compared to the SFP+ optical module with larger size.

X2, XENPAK package

X2, XENPAK optical module and multi Gigabit Ethernet Applications, usually connected with SC jumper X2 light module is composed of the evolvement of the standard XENPAK light module to the XENPAK optical module is mounted to the circuit board need to be slotted on the circuit board to realize the complex, can not achieve the high density application, X2 optical module improved half of the volume is only about XENPAK, can be directly placed on the circuit board, so it is suitable for high density rack system and PCI card application.

    With 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.

    1. 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.

    AOC 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.

    Dense 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.
