Optical Fiber
As mentioned above, there are Single-mode and Multi-mode optical fiber. Both of them can be used for
CT-10G-MC series .
Fiber Connector
Optical fiber connector contains two ends of fibers and can attach
to SFP+ transceivers. There are two ports for one SFP+
transceiver: one fiber is for receiving and one fiber is for
transmitting. The picture here is called LC connector that can
attach to SFP+ transceiver.
Transceiver (Connector)
SFP+/XFP Transceivers can be plugged into CT-10G-MC series’ SFP+/XFP Ports. SFP+/XFP Transceivers
are active components that consume power from CT-10G-MC series and are capable of converting signals
between optical data flow and electronic data flow.
For different transmission purpose, the component inside SFP+ form factor can be 10BASE-SR, LR, ER,
ZR, EZR, mode.
