Frequently Asked Questions of Fiber Transceivers In Fiberstore

Modern fiber optic communication systems generally include an optical transmitter to convert an electrical signal into an optical signal to send into the optical fiber, a cable containing bundles of multiple optical fibers that is routed through underground conduits and buildings, multiple kinds of amplifiers, and an optical receiver to recover the signal as an electrical signal. The information transmitted is typically digital information generated by computers, telephone systems, and cable television companies.,do you have any questions not understand with fiber transceivers.Let me tell you the FAQ.

1. What is Optical Transceiver?
The Optical Module are compose of photoelectronic device, functional circuit and optical interface. According to the functions of optical modules, there have optical receiver module, optical transceiver module, optical fiber transceiver module, light forwarding module etc.

2. What is singlemode fiber?
Singlemode fiber is optical fiber that allows light to travel down a single path known as the fundamental mode. It features a core diameter of 8 to 9 microns. Singlemode fiber can be used to transmit AV signals over extreme distances up to many miles or kilometers.

3. What is X2 transceiver?
X2 transceiver is the 10G fiber optic transceiver, its development was based on former Xenpak standards, X2 10gb transceiver inner function is almost similar with Xenpak, and X2 also can use one transceiver to fulfill all 10G Ethernet optical port function. X2 transceiver is about half size of Xenpak, this enable it suit for density installations. 10Gbps Ethernet standards were defined by IEEE in 2002, it not only enlarges the data transmission rate, but it has greater working distance. IEEE 802.3ae 10G Ethernet standard defined the working distance from 300 meters to 40km.

4.What is 10G X2 transceiver?
10G X2 is a standardized form factor for 10 Gb/s fiber optic transponders that is used for data transfer rates from 10.3 Gb/s to 10.5 Gb/s. It is protocol-specific: Either 10G Ethernet or 10G Fibre Channel versions are available. X2 transponders are used in datacom optical links only (not telecom), and they are smaller than old generation XENPAK transponders. Its electrical interface to the host board is also standardized and is called XAUI (4 x 3.125 Gb/s).10G X2 transceiver includes 10GBase-sr x2,10GBase-lr x2,10GBase-er x2,10GBase-zr x2 ect.

5.What is Cisco X2-10GB-ZR Transceiver?
The Cisco X2-10GB-ZR can be a Class 1 laser product. It fully matches the multi-sourcing agreement (MSA) which enables results in most MSA compliant platforms. The X2-10GB-ER have to be operated inside specified temperature and voltage limits. The optical ports within the module would be terminated by having an optical connector or having a dust plug.Cisco X2-10GB-ZR transceiver module is for single mode fiber, 1550-nm wavelength, SC duplex connector, The X2-10GB-ZR Module offer customers a wide variety of 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options for data center, enterprise wiring closet, and service provider transport applications.
