As bandwidth demands increase, fiber optic patch cables and fiber optic transceivers become more and more important in fiber optic data transmission, especially in data transmission between the switches and equipment. But with so many different kinds of patch cables available in the market, which one is suitable for may optical transceivers? This article may on this issue to provide some solutions. Before starting this topic, it is necessary for us to review the basic knowledge of the fiber optic transceiver and fiber optic patch cable. Fiber Optic Transceiver Overview Fiber Optic Transceiver is a self-contained component that can both transmit and receive. Usually, it is inserted in devices such as switches, routers or network interface cards which provide one or more transceiver module slot. There are many optical transceivers types, such as SFP+ transceiver, X2 transceiver, XENPAK transceiver, XFP transceiver, SFP (Mini GBIC) transceiver, GBIC transceiver and so on. ...

When optical transceivers was first deployed, verifying the performance of it was straightforward. The entire network was installed and owned by a single company, and if the system worked, extensive testing of the subcomponents was unnecessary. Today, however, most optical networks use components that may come from a variety of suppliers. Therefore, to test the compatibility and interoperability of each fiber optic transceiver becomes particularly important. How to test a fiber optic transceiver? This article may give you the answer. As we all know, basically, a fiber optical transceiver consists of a transmitter and a receiver. When a transmitter through a fiber to connect with a receiver but the system doesn’t achieve your desired bit-error-ratio (BER), is the transmitter at fault? Or, is it the receiver? Perhaps both are faulty. A low-quality transmitter can compensate for by a low-quality receiver (and vice versa). Thus, specifications should guarantee that a...

Do you still worry about the costs for transceiver modules which keep adding up over time? Wanna use the compatible transceiver but still worry about the quality and compatibility? To most of the transceiver users, they are in the same psychological warfare when choosing the transceivers—to acquire a product that is with high quality and high compatibility, and also can help save more budget. Fiberstore, a professional manufacturer and supplier of compatible optical transceiver modules, may be your ideal choice. Today, let’s to gain insight into Fiberstore and its transceiver modules. 1. The transceiver can’t be compatible with your original-brand switch. 2. The quality of the transceiver is not reliable and the service life is short. 3. Poor performance. 4.
