What are the differences between the Gigabit BiDi and 10Gigabit BiDi module?

2017-08-31
BIDI SFP is a bidirectional optical module, also called WDM module. It uses WDM technology to realize the bidirectional transmission of optical signals on one optical fiber.
 
BIDI module only has 1 port, wave filtering through the filter of module, and finished the transmitting of 1310nm optical signal and receiving of 1550nm optical signal, or opposite. Therefore the module must be used in pairs.
Its biggest advantage is to save fiber resources.

What are the differences between the Gigabit BiDi and 10Gigabit BiDi module? Let’s learn about it!
What are the differences between the Gigabit BiDi and 10Gigabit BiDi module?
1. Data rate
Gigabit BiDi transmission rate is 1.25G, 10Gigabit BiDi is 10G. The latter is 10 times of the former 

2. Appearance

3. Wavelength
Gigabit BiDi:TX1310/RX1550nm,TX1550/RX1310nm,TX1310/RX1490nm,TX1490/RX1310nm,TX1490/RX1550nm,TX1550/RX1490nm
10Gigabit BiDi:TX1270/RX1330nm,TX1330/RX1270nm

4. Transmitting distance
The longest distance of Gigabit BiDi is up to 120KM, while 10Gigabit BiDi is 80KM. 

5. The requirements of application on the switch
The switch port for Gigabit BiDi is SFP port, for 10Gigabit BiDi is SFP+ port.

    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.
