SFP CWDM BiDi transceivers make it possible to transfer multiple optical signals of different wavelengths over one fiber. CWDM BiDi transceivers provide an interface between communication devices by using less fiber. Additionally they require less fusion splicing and patching.

SFP CWDM BiDi transceivers typically use LEDs or lasers for transmission, and PIN or APD detectors for reception. GAOTek SFP CWDM BiDi transceivers use DFB laser transmitter to transmit optic signals. These transceivers comply with SFF 8472 and RoHS standards. They are Class 1 Products that comply with IEC 60825-1 and IEC 60825-2 requirements. Our transceivers are hot pluggable devices that can be inserted or removed during operation.

Transceivers based on CWDM are more stable in conditions of high temperature fluctuations. CWDM BiDi transceivers are widely used in fiber to the home (FTTH) projects. Key specific applications include:

1.          Router/server interface
2.          Switch to switch interface
3.          Switched backplane applications
4.          Fast Ethernet
5.          Other optical links
