Below are general answers on how to choose other transceivers from the list of GAO Tek’s other transceivers.

 

  • Determine Your Network Requirements

Speed and Bandwidth: Gao’s other transceivers identify the data rate your network supports. Common standards are 10G (10 Gigabit Ethernet), 40G, 100G, etc.

Compatibility: Gao Tek’s other transceivers ensure the transceiver matches the port speeds of your network switches, routers, or other networking equipment.

Short Range (SR): For distances up to 300 meters. Gao’s other transceivers are commonly used within data centers.

Long Range (LR): For distances up to 10 km. Gao Tek’s other transceivers are suitable for connections between buildings or campuses.

  • Interface and Form Factor

SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable): Gao’s other transceivers are typically used for 1G and 10G connections.

SFP+ (Enhanced Small Form-factor Pluggable): For 10G connections, offering better performance.

QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable): Used for 40G and 100G connections.

QSFP-DD, OSFP: For 200G and 400G connections.

  • Connector Type

LC, SC, MPO/MTP: Gao Tek’s other transceivers choose transceivers based on the fiber optic cables and the equipment ports. LC connectors are common for single-mode and multi-mode fibers.

  • Fiber Type

Single-Mode Fiber (SMF): Gao’s other transceivers are used for long-distance transmission. Typically has a core diameter of 9 µm. Wavelengths: 1310 nm, 1550 nm.

  • Compatibility

Vendor Compatibility: Gao’s other transceivers ensure the transceiver is compatible with your network equipment. Some manufacturers lock their equipment to specific transceivers (e.g., Cisco, Juniper). If your network uses equipment from different vendors, opt for transceivers known for broad compatibility.

  • Application Environment

Data Centers: Gao’s other transceivers typically require high-density, high-speed, and low-latency transceivers. May need a mix of short and long-range transceivers. Telecommunications often use long-range transceivers with high reliability and error correction.

  • Power Consumption

Low-Power Options: Essential for reducing heat and energy costs, especially in high-density environments.

High-Power Options: These may be necessary for long-range transmissions but come with higher energy costs.
