Standard optical transmission transceivers including CFP and QSFP28 transceiver modules are quite efficient for 100G transmission within data centers. However, it becomes an issue as they cannot be used for transporting data over long distances like in cases where traffic is needed to be carried between multiple data centers, geographically dispersed and situated far from one another (say over 60 kilometers). Here comes the role of 100G DWDM QSFP28 transceivers.

Die ständig steigende Nachfrage nach vielfältigen Multimedia-Anwendungen und -Diensten sowie der Bedarf an Bandbreitenerweiterungen und schnelleren Datenraten wird für jedes Rechenzentrum überall zu einer Herausforderung. Aufkommende Technologien wie Cloud Computing wirkten auch als Katalysator, der die Branche dazu antrieb, einen neuen Ansatz zu entwickeln, um diesen schnelllebigen Trends zu begegnen.

Fiber optics technology has revolutionized the world in how we define communications. We have seen the shift in the development of communication systems, but a huge leap was made with the invention of optical fibers. In the age of the internet, more than 2.1 billion people have access to a smartphone which means that they have access to the internet. A majority of the people have access to more than one device which is used to connect to the internet. This creates an effect which increases the data traffic any minute. So, with the increasing need for more data flow, optical fibers have been in demand more and more ever since.

The network components manufacturer CBO today announced its collaboration with CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, on the White Rabbit project.

All of the communication equipment such as routers, switches, firewalls and wireless access points we see today are electronic equipment. Electronic equipment understands only electrical signals. Electrical signals are used to transmit or receive information in the form of bits. When the electronic equipment is interfaced with fiber optic networks, transceivers are used.

Standard LC optical patch cables are formed by the pair of fibers, each in one cable jacket, terminated by a pair of LC connectors. They are usually multimode OM fibers that support the burden of dense port connections from data center environments. The use of standard LC optical patch cord fibers result in an increased number of fibers in a factor of 2 for each optical port (1 fiber for Tx and 1 fiber for Rx).
