The optical module is not a fiber jumpers, fiber-optic network can not be achieved. Since the optical module of different transmission media, optical interfaces, data rate and transmission distance will be different. Want to identify these optical modules is not difficult, but with the appropriate module or optical fiber jumpers take some thought, easy daylight Communications (etulink.com) now put together a SFP optical module corresponding fiber jumpers, hope It can be helpful to everyone in practical application.
The optical module according to the different transmission media, into a general electrical interface of the optical fiber and optical modules based on copper, the MSA defines several electrical modules, such as: 100BASE-T, 1000BASE-T and 10GBASE-T. Electrical modules generally use the GBIC, SFP and SFP + and standard RJ45 interface, typically electrical interface module Cat5 6/7 cable connection /.
FIG detailing the conventional jumper type and SFP optical module with the required information.
In selecting the optical fiber jumpers first consider the problem of the interface module, the optical module is usually a receiving port and a sending port, or using an LC duplex SC connector, so with the duplex fiber jumpers. But for BiDi single fiber optical module, one port can handle two transmission and receiving function, BiDi single fiber transceiver module used with simplex jumper.
The second is the type of fiber, single-mode fiber and multimode jumper, the jumper can be divided into single-mode OS1 and OS2, the multimode fiber jumpers can be divided into OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4. Different jumper applied to different usage scenarios. Jumpers can support single-mode fiber for long distance transmission connection with a single mode optical module can be used for multimode fiber jumper link connected to a short-range multi-mode optical module.
