Since 2019, 400G has become a hot topic in the optical communications industry. Several leading optical module manufacturers in the world have launched their own 400G optical modules and most of them have adopted QSFP-DD packages. As early as March 21, 2016, the QSFP-DD MSA team began to plan to develop the QSFP-DD high-speed interface, and experienced the resolution of a series of issues suc...

With the increasing demand of data center for bandwidth, the network rate is developing towards a higher rate, and there is bound to be the need for network upgrading. There are two upgrade paths for the network from 10G to 100G, namely 10G-25G-100G and 10G-40G-100G. End users seem to prefer 25G. Why? ETU-LINK will tell you.   All this can be said from the rise of 25 Ethernet. Data center TOR...

Nowadays, with the increasing demand of network throughput and bandwidth, the demand of 100G high-speed optical module is also growing. IEEE has developed two optical module standards for 100G network: 100G SR4 QSFP28 and 100G LR4 QSFP28. But in practical application, because the transmission distance of the above optical modules can not fully cover the transmission distance requirements of t...
