What is GBIC Transceiver?
2017-06-23
GBIC is short for Gigabit Interface Converter,which is a standard optic transceiver that converts serial electric signals to serial optical signals and vice versa commonly used used to interface a fiber optic system with an Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet. GBIC is hot-swappable transceiver with SC connector, it is also compatible with the Gigabit Ethernet definition IEEE802.3, 1000BASE-CX, Fibre Channel 100-TP-EL-S and 100-TW-EL-S inter-enclosure. It’s commonly used with some former Ethernet Switch and other network equipment to reach a long transmission.
The GBIC standard is defined by the Small Form Factor committee in SFF-8053. In the GBIC MSA SFF-8053,the mechanical interface,operational description,electronic specification was defined.

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.
