  When deploying the cabling system, sometimes you may encounter such situation when there is already brand A switch, but you got brand B optical transceiver. Then, the compatible issue is what you most worry about. Just like the following figure shows, Cisco SFP-10G-SR transceiver definitely works well when plugged [ Continue reading…]



Difference Between GBIC and SFP & Application

pending image

  GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) is a hot-swappable Gigabit Interface optical module with SC connector. A gigabit interface converter (GBIC) is a standard for transceivers, commonly used with Gigabit Ethernet and fiber channel. A variation of the GBIC called the small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP),also known as mini-GBIC, has the [ Continue reading…]


Parameter setting of OTDR optical fiber test method

pending image

  OTDR is the main instrument in the field of optical fiber testing technology. It is widely used in the maintenance and construction of optical cable lines. It can measure optical fiber length, optical fiber transmission attenuation, joint attenuation, and fault location. OTDR has the advantages of short test time, [ Continue reading…]


Safety instructions before fiber optic testing

pending image

  Hello everyone, today we will discuss with you the safety instructions before fiber optic testing. Some people may not understand why the safety instructions of the optical fiber should be emphasized. This is because once the operation is improper, it will not only cause irreversible damage to the naked [ Continue reading…]



How to Build a 10G Home Fiber Network?

pending image

With the wide application of the 10GbE technology in the commercial sector and the popularity of FTTH (fiber to the home), the cost of deploying a 10G network has been reduced to some extent. This trend has driven some home users to think about the upgrade of their current 1G [ Continue reading…]

10G and 40G technologies have matured and occupied a large market during the past decade. While in recent years, 25G/50G/100G technologies are catching more and more attention and begin to stand out in future network deployments. These emerging Ethernet technologies are not simply designed to set a new higher speed [ Continue reading…]


What Are The Differences between SONET,SDH and DWDM?

pending image

When compared with traditional SONET or SDH, the next generation of DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) is seen as a simple architecture with high scalability, capacity add/drop, multiple ring terminations, multi-services, and multiple fabrics. Then, on comparison of SONET vs SDH vs DWDM, what are their differences exactly?   SONET [ Continue reading…]
