WHAT IS SFP+ OR A SFP TRANSCEIVER
No CommentsSFP stands for small form-factor pluggable it is a compact hot pluggable transceiver used for both telecom and the data applications. LC connectors are used to connect fibers to SFPs. SFP module has two sides, first side known as transmitter it has laser for transmitting and other side known as [ Continue reading…]
WHAT KIND OF FIBER POLISH BE USED
No CommentsWhen a connector is mounted on the fiber end, some loss of power will be experienced. Some of the light would be reflected back to the fiber towards the source that generated that light signal. These reflected back signals into the fiber are called Optical Return Loss (ORL). The ORL [ Continue reading…]
