For 100G optical transceivers, there are a number of form factors including CFP/CFP2/CFP4, CXP and QSFP28. Among these different 100G form factors, it appears that the market has chosen QSFP28 as the primary form factor for 100G links. Hence, this post will focus on several types of 100G QSFP28 transceivers—100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 transceiver, 100GBASE-PSM4 QSFP28 transceiver, […]

QSFP28 – A Better Way to 100G
The battle over 100G component market has been upgraded with the emerging of 100G QSFP28 module—an optical transceiver which can support 100G with the transmission mode of 4*25G. Before its appearance, the way to move to 100G is considered to be 10G→40G→100G. However, the new 100G road map with QSFP28 is 10G→25G→100G or 10G→25G→50G→100G. Currently […]
When Should Use GBIC or SFP ?
In computer industry, technology undergoes rapid progress for data transmission at high speed. Defined by the IEEE 802.3-2008 standard, gigabit Ethernet just achieved this performance by using various fiber optical products, including GBIC and SFP transceiver modules. GBIC vs. SFP: this post will discuss when we use these two kinds of transceivers. GBIC Transceivers A […]
Optical Transceiver Design For TDM PONs
The optical transceiver (transmitter and receiver) used for optical-to-electrical conversion is a key component in optical communication systems. In a PON system, an optical transmitter and receiver at the optical line terminal (OLT) or optical network units (ONUs) are typically packaged together to form a bidirectional optical subassembly (BOSA). The figure below shows the architecture […]

Optical Transceiver Module Tutorial From FiberStore
What is an Optical Transceiver module? Optical Transceiver is a computer chip that uses fiber optic technology to communicate between other devices. This is opposed to a chip that transfers information electrically through metal wires and circuits or by the process of using various wave forms to communicate data. An optical transceiver chip is an […]
