FAQs of Active Optical Cable
What is CWDM4 MSA?
CWDM4 MSA is a general specification for low-cost 100g optical interface, 2km in data center application.
CWDM4 MSA alliance was jointly launched by Avago, Finisar, JDSU and Oclaro on March 31, 2014. Four 25gbps signals are used and multiplexed to two single-mode optical fibers by CWDM. IEEE 802.3bj kr4 RS FEC technology is adopted.
CWDM MSA said the release of the standard has collected feedback from more than 40 companies, including system OEMs, optical module manufacturers, chip manufacturers, fiber optic cable manufacturers, etc. At present, members of cwdm4 MSA alliance include:
Avago Technologies
Brocade
ColorChip
Finisar
HiLight Semiconductor Ltd
Hitachi Metals
II-IV Incorporated
JDSU
Juniper Networks
Kaiam
Mitsubishi Electric
NeoPhotonics
Oclaro
Oplink
SiFotonics
Skorpios Technologies
Sumitomo Electric
What is LWDM?
The full name of lwdm is Lan WDM, which usually refers to a wavelength range dense WDM technology in 100g optical modules. According to the wavelength defined by IEEE 802.3, the wavelength of LAN WDM mainly covers 10km.
The wavelength is 1295.56nm, 1300.05nm, 1304.58nm, 1309.14nm.
What is pam4 technology?
Pam4 is a kind of PAM (pulse-amplitude modulation) modulation technology, namely fourth-order pulse amplitude modulation.
PAM signal is a popular signal transmission technology after NRZ (nonreturn to zero).
NRZ signal uses high and low signal levels to represent 1 and 0 of digital logic signal. Each clock cycle can transmit 1 bit of logic information.
Pam4 signal is transmitted by four different signal levels, and each clock cycle can transmit 2-bit logic information, namely 00, 01, 10, 11.
Therefore, under the same baud rate, the bit rate of pam4 signal is twice that of NRZ signal, the transmission efficiency is doubled, and the cost can be effectively reduced.
What kind of SFPs?
SFP, small hot pluggable module. Finger sized transceivers are suitable for many different rates and protocols, including multimode fiber, single-mode fiber, copper wire, and multi-wavelength interfaces for WDM systems. In a pluggable transponder, a pluggable network card is used to transmit a specific wavelength of WDM.
