  1. Single and Dual Fiber Optical Transceivers – What is the Difference? Fiber Optics has gained lot of popularity in these years and it will more likely grow further in the coming years. Fiber Optic Solutions has many benefits, you can use to extend the existing legacy networks. With the help of Optical Transceivers in fiber optic networks it becomes easier to achieve efficient and speedy transmission and reception of data. Optical Transceivers are compact devices which are designed to receive and transmit data over fiber optic cables. These transceivers convert the electrical signals into light signals Types of Fiber Optical Transceivers There are two types of fiber optical transceivers: •Single Fiber Optical Transceivers– The transmission and reception of data happens on a single fiber which makes it bidirectional therefore it is also known as BIDI. It uses WDM Technology which integrates and splits data according to the wavelength of light. It is a better choice for users with insufficient fiber resources. •Dual Fiber Optical Transceivers – These transceivers use the same wavelength on two fiber strands. It has two separate ports for transmission and reception of data. TX is used for transmission and RX is used for Reception. Difference between Single and Dual Fiber Optical Transceivers Below are the factors that points out the differences: Differences Single Fiber Optical Transceivers Dual Fiber Optical Transceivers Ports 1 Port 2 Ports Wavelengths 1300 and 1600 nanometers 850, 1300, and 1550 nanometers Prices Slightly Expensive Cheaper in comparison For more information about the fiber optic devices such as fiber optic transceivers or fiber optic network switches visit Versitron.
