Difference between CWDM and DWDM networks Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) has become increasingly popular in fiber-optics communications as it allows transmission of multiple signals onto a single optical fiber. WDM enables bidirectional (BiDi) communication over one strand of fiber by sending signals utilizing different wavelengths that can be spaced apart. WDM systems are very popular in… Read More
BiDi Transmission BiDi or bidirectional transmission relies on transceivers that have two different wavelengths in order to accommodate transmission in both directions on just one fiber. Unlike conventional optical transceivers which have two ports, BiDi transceivers only have one. Bidi transceivers are able to transmit signals in both directions by different center wavelength using wavelength… Read More

Light sources used for fiber optic transmission need to meet several criteria: they must be the right wavelength, be able to be modulated fast enough to transmit data and be efficiently coupled into fiber. Lasers have proven to be ideal light sources because of their high bandwidth capability and narrow spectral output. There are 3… Read More
Bandwidth requirements have led to an explosive growth in hyperscale datacenters. Cisco predicts that by 2020 global cloud IP traffic will meet or exceed 14 zettabytes. IP video traffic will account for 82 percent of all IP traffic. All this means that 100G and higher data centers are becoming the norm. The 100G QSFP28 transceiver… Read More
