Gigabit optical transceivers can be inserted into 100M, Gigabit and 10 Gigabit optical ports. For some switches, 10 Gigabit optical ports can be used by Gigabit optical transceivers and Gigabit optical ports can be used by 100M modules, but some switches do not support it. Therefore, Gigabit optical transceivers are most suitable for use with Gigabit switches.
①Connection between SFP transceiver and switch
Connect two SFP Gigabit optical transceivers to two Gigabit switches with an LC fiber jumper to realize the solution of direct connection of 2 Gigabit switches.
② Connection between BIDI SFP and switch
This solution is the same as it of SFP optical transceiver. The direct connection of the Gigabit switch can be realized by connecting an LC fiber jumper. Which is the simplest and economical way for data centers, enterprise wiring and telecommunications In the Ethernet connection of the operation transmission.
③CWDM SFP connect to switch
It's using a CWDM coarse wavelength division multiplexer to connect the optical transceiver and the switch. Insert the modules on the switch in turn, connect the module and the CWDM wavelength division multiplexer by fiber jumper, plug in it for each multiplexer, then use an optical cable in the middle to connect the CWDM SFP transceiver and the CWDM coarse wavelength division multiplexer. Gigabit switch connection;
④DWDM SFP connect to switch
The connection solution is the same as that of CWDM SFP. The DWDM SFP can be connected to the Gigabit switch by replacing the CWDM coarse wavelength division multiplexer with a DWDM dense wavelength division multiplexer.
