OM4 vs. OM5: What’s the Difference?

As the demand for bandwidth, new transmission media must be developed to meet the requirements of users. The latest in optical transmission media is called OM5 fiber. To help you use this advanced fiber to its greatest advantage, this paper describes the basis of OM5 fiber, and highlights the key differences [ Continue reading…]
Five Basics About Fiber Optic Cable

A fiber optic cable is a network cable that contains strands of glass fibers inside an insulated casing. They’re designed for high performance data networking and telecommunications. Fiber optic cable carry communication signals using pulses of light, faster than copper cabling which uses electricity. They are becoming the most significant [ Continue reading…]
Optical divider and connector market strong demand

In many related policies, driven by large-scale light in to the copper retreat has unfolded, with FTTx substantive, ODN products becoming an important part of FTTx system, may also be the expansion opportunity. In line with the statistics, the proportion of ODN access equipment investment taken into account 50% ~ 60% [ Continue reading…]
The principle of optical fiber connector and classification

In optical fiber communication (transmission) link, in order to achieve the different modules.The needs of the flexible connection between devices and systems, there must be a able to removable between optical fiber and optical fiber (activities) of the connection device, can make the light path according to the required transmission [ Continue reading…]
What Kind of Switches and Patch Cables Should I Choose for SFP Transceiver?

Gigabit Ethernet has supplanted Fast Ethernet in wired local networks and becomes ubiquitous throughout the world, serving as one of the most prevalent enterprise communication standard. The Gigabit Ethernet standard supports a maximum data rate of 1 gigabit per second (Gbps)(1000 Mbps), 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet, yet is [ Continue reading…]
Tunable SFP+ VS. Fixed Wavelength DWDM SFP+ Transceiver

Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) is one of most important technologies to increase network transmission capacity. Early DWDM systems applied fixed wavelength DWDM transceivers and performance is good. However, as the demand for great traffic capacity keeps growing, more optical transceivers of different wavelengths are needed, leading to high cost. So how [ Continue reading…]
PON Splitters And Passive Optical Network

Passive Optical Network (PON), comprises a family of Physical Layer (Layer 1) access technologies based on the specifications developed by the Full-Service Access Network(FSAN) initiative for an ATM-based Passive Optical Network scheme produced by an international consortium of vendors and ratified by the ITU-T within the G.983.1 standard (October 1998). A [ Continue reading…]
SFP Optical Transceiver Modules

SFP package – hot little package module, the highest rate of up to 10G, is mostly used with LC interfaces. SFP is abbreviation of Small Form Pluggable, which can be simply considered as an upgraded version of GBIC. SFP module has half volume of GBIC, only the size of a [ Continue reading…]
Do you really know 1000BASE-LX / LH SFP?

1000BASE-LX/LH SFP1000BASE-LX LH SFP, one of the commonly used fiber optic transceivers, is now widely used in optical transmission systems. With the development of 40/100G Ethernet, even 400G Ethernet, this kind of transceiver module is nothing new to the module users. However, few people can deliver a clear answer to [ Continue reading…]
How To Repair The Accidentally Cut Fiber Optic Cables

Underground fiber optic cables can be accidentally cut. The most typical factor which could cause this accident may be the utilization of backhoe while digging. If it happens to you, you can simply search for backhoe and obtain the cut cables. However, if it is brought on by moles, it will [ Continue reading…]
