What is 10G Fiber Patch Cord?

March 29, 2012

10G fiber patch cords (OM3 10G Fiber patch cord) provide 10 gigabit data transfer speeds in high bandwidth applications 5 times faster than standard 50um fiber cable. It works with both VCSEL laser and LED sources. With the development of multimedia, there is requirement for more and more broad bandwidth for audio and video applications. Nowadays many people need multimode fiber patch cord that can transmit 10G. 10G fiber patch cords are designed to meet this requirement.

GBIC

March 28, 2012

A gigabit interface converter (GBIC) is a standard for transceivers , commonly used with Gigabit Ethernet and fibre channel in the 1990s. By offering a standard, hot swappable electrical interface, one gigabit port can support a wide range of physical media, from copper to long-wave single-mode optical fiber, at lengths of hundreds of kilometers.
A variation of the GBIC called the small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP), also known as mini-GBIC, has the same functionality but in a smaller form factor. Announced in 2001, it largely made the GBIC obsolete.

SNMP

March 28, 2012

SNMP is short for Simple Network Management Protocol. Formerly known as the Simple Gateway Monitoring Protocol (SGMP), Used to manage the communication line. It is an Internet-standard protocol for managing devices on IP networks. Devices that typically support SNMP include routers, switches, servers, workstations, printers, modem racks, and more. SNMP is consists of a set of network management standard, include an application layer protocol, a database schema and a group of data objects. These protocols can support network management for detecting the devices which connected the network whether there is any concern.

XFP 10G

March 28, 2012

The XFP (10 Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable) is a standard for transceivers for high-speedcomputer network and telecommunication links that use optical fiber. It was defined by an industry group in 2002, along with its interface to other electrical components which is called XFI.

Fiber Media Converter

March 28, 2012

Fiber media converters are simple networking devices that make it possible to connect two dissimilar media types such as twisted pair with fiber optic cabling. They were introduced to the industry nearly two decades ago, and are important in interconnecting fiber optic cabling-based systems with existing copper-based, structured cabling systems. They are also used in MAN access and data transport services to enterprise customers.

CWDM & DWDM

March 28, 2012

In fiber-optic communications, wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) is a technology which multiplexes a number of optical carrier signals onto a single optical fiber by using different wavelengths (i.e colours) of laser light. This technique enables bidirectional communications over one strand of fiber, as well as multiplication of capacity.
