Industrial Grade Optical Transceiver Modules

Industrial grade optical modules are used in relatively harsh environments with big temperature differences. The most basic working conditions of industrial optical modules are that they must meet the requirements of -40℃ and 85 ℃. They must adopt scenario-hardened component designs in their electrical components and housing to ensure the service life of the modules.

Commercial Grade Optical Transceiver Modules

Commercial grade optical modules are the most common products in the market and are widely used in data centers and indoor interconnection scenarios. The operating temperature ranges from 0℃ to 70℃.

Differences between Industrial and Commercial Grade Optical Transceivers

Operating temperature range

Industrial Grade: -40~85℃

Commercial Grade: 0~70℃

Testing Methods

Industrial grade optical modules need to be subjected to high and low temperature aging tests, to make sure that the modules can work stably in an environment with temperature below 0℃ and maximum temperature at 85℃.

Commercial grade optical modules go through aging tests at normal temperature and can withstand a maximum temperature of 70℃. The ideal operating temperature is 0-70℃.

Application Areas

Industrial grade optical modules are commonly used with industrial Ethernet switches in industrial and factory automation, railway and intelligent transportation systems (ITS), power utility substations, marine, oil and gas, mining and other industrial Ethernet networks. The industrial grade optical modules can ensure the lasting stability of the industrial Ethernet in the harsh working environment.

Commercial grade optical modules are the most common and widely used products in the market, such as indoor data center rooms.

5G Applications

The AAU side optical module in 5G fronthaul transmission involves outdoor applications and requires industrial grade optical modules (-40 to 85℃).

The 5G midhaul and backhaul transmission optical modules are used in the equipment room with good heat dissipation conditions, where commercial-grade chips can be used.

Data Center Applications

Data center internal interconnection requires a relatively small operating temperature range. Data centers usually use commercial-grade optical modules. The operating temperature ranges from 0℃ to 70℃.

In summary, the operating temperature of the optical module affects the parameters of the optical module. When the working environment temperature of the optical module changes, the operating current of the optical module also changes with the temperature. As a result, the parameters of the optical module change, affecting the normal transmission of the optical module.

To ensure the performance stability of optical modules, Glsun has various test standards for optical modules. For example, the temperature, humidity, and performance standards of optical modules must be met to better ensure the service life of optical modules.

How does SFP works?

SFP (Small Form Pluggable) optical modules are the most used fiber optic transceiver modules in the fiber communications industry. SFP's come in a variety of data rates and different fiber coverages. Most used SFPs are the 1.25G Gigabit rate transceiver modules. This section also includes wider old format GBIC only transceivers with SC connectors.

What Are the Common Optical Devices in DWDM System?

Dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) is an optical fiber multiplexing technology that is used to increase the bandwidth of existing fiber networks. It combines data signals from different sources over a single pair of optical fiber, while maintaining complete separation of the data streams. This is a laser technology used to increase bandwidth over existing fiber optic backbones. DWDM technology is an extension of optical network, the main advantage of DWDM is that it is independent of protocol and transmission rate, DWDM-based network can transmit data in IP, ATM, SONET, SDH and Ethernet. Optical devices in DWDM system: DWDM optical transceiver modules, DWDM MUX/DEMUX, DWDM OADM and optical amplifiers. DWDM Transceiver Modules DWDM optical module is an important device for photoelectric signal conversion. Every DWDM transceiver module has its own specific wavelength, using DWDM technology can greatly save fiber resources. Most DWDM transceiver modules (DWDM SFP,DWDM SFP+,DWDM XFP, etc) on the market today are operating at 100GHz and 50GHz. DWDM Mux/Demux DWDM Mux combines data signals from different sources over a single pair of optical fiber, while maintaining complete separation of the data streams. Conversely, DWDM Demux refers to the type of combinational circuit that accepts just a single input but directs it through multiple outputs. Instead of using a single fiber in each pair of optical transceiver modules, DWDM allows multiple optical channels to share the same fiber optic cable. AAWG Athermal AWG (Arrayed Waveguide Grating), or AAWG, is based on silica-on-silicon planar technology. It mainly realizes the functions of multiplexing and demultiplexing for more than 16 channels. AAWG has thermal stability and improved ITU-Grid accuracy that ITU-G694.1 requires for with wider transmission bandwidth, thus it can be applied to high-end areas such as Metro/long-haul DWDM optical communication system. DWDM OADM An optical add-drop multiplexer (OADM) is a device used in wavelength-division multiplexing systems for multiplexing and routing different channels of light into or out of a single mode fiber. The OADM based on DWDM technology is moving the telecommunications industry significantly closer to the development of optical networks. The OADM can be placed between two end terminals along any route and be substituted for an optical amplifier. Commercially available OADMs allow carriers to drop and/or add up to multi channels between DWDM terminals. By deploying an OADM instead of an optical amplifier, service providers can gain flexibility to distribute revenue–generating traffic and reduce costs associated with deploying end terminals at low traffic areas along a route. Erbium-doped optical Fiber Amplifier Erbium-doped optical Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) is now most commonly used to compensate the loss of an optical fiber in long-distance optical communication. Another important characteristic is that EDFA can amplify multiple optical signals simultaneously, and thus can be easily combined with WDM technology. Optical amplifiers can amplify optical signals in a wide wavelength range, which is very important for DWDM system applications. In contrast to the EDFA used in CATV or SDH systems, the EDFA in DWDM system is also referred to as DWDM EDFA.To extend the transmission distance of the DWDM system, you can choose from different types of optical amplifiers,including DWDM EDFA, CATV EDFA, SDH EDFA, EYDFA and Raman amplifier, etc.


How would you use Optical Link Budget to design short intermediate and long reach fiber networks?

An Optical Link Budget is the overall gains and losses within an optical network. Having this budget would than allow for the cost effective selection of transmitter, receiver (transceiver) at each end of a network.

What is a video transceiver used for?

It's used to send video and/or audio from one location to another - usually as part of a security system. It sends the pictures and sound via radio waves (instead of cables) over a short distance. They're illegal in some countries, because they use radio frequencies that are already allocated to existing services - causing interference to legitimate users. Optical video transceivers are used to transform between the video signals and fiber optic signals, although its name is video transceiver, nowadays optical video transceiver can carry the data signals and audio signals too. Currently the most popular type is the digital video optical video transceivers. Source: FiberStore
