subject: Quality Performances In Business With Transceivers [print this page] The reason that we are able to communicate easily today is because of transceivers that facilitate signals to be received and transmitted. Transceivers were first used only in radios to transmit data. In modern times transceivers are also used in wireless devices such as cell phones. The efficiency of a transceiver is dependent on the frequency range. When the device is within the frequency range signals can easily be transmitted and received. Uninterrupted transmission and reception services are extremely vital for businesses in order to carry out smooth and unhindered operations.
Sophisticated technology is required to ensure that the cell phone service businesses are not affected adversely due to inadequate frequencies and signal losses. Thus it is extremely necessary to invest in quality transceivers that provide reliable and robust support. The Cisco transceiver is a highly qualified product that delivers compelling performances. Transceivers are also in Ethernet networks to provide the business with efficient services and effective renditions.
There are several categories of transceivers such as GBIC, SPF, SPF+, XFP and XAUL that are used in the fiber optic systems. The Cisco SFP (Small Form Factor Pluggable) transceiver consists of hot pluggable interfaces that provide a good choice of protocols, reaches and speed options as well as supported transmission media. It is a hot-swappable input/output device that can be plugged into an SPF port or into a Cisco router or switch slot. It links the port with the fiber optic network. The SPF module can support both Gigabit Ethernet and Fiber Channel.
Ciscos CWDM GBIC or Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing Gigabit Interface Converter facilitates the modeling and deployment of multiservice networks. The Cisco CWDM GBIC transceiver is a cost-effective solution that can be used for Gigabit Ethernet and Fiber Channels in campuses, data centers and metropolitan area access networks. The Cisco CWDM GBIC consists of two parts. One part is a set of eight different pluggable transceivers and the other part consists of a set of passive multiplexer.
The transceivers and passive multiplexers are compliant with the ITU-T G 694 2 standard defined CWDM grid. The CWDM GBIC model can transmit up to eight channels of Gigabit Ethernet or Fiber Channels over single mode fiber strands. It easily fits into a standard GBIC port and supports the IEEE 802 3z standard. It does not require power and does not have to be configured also. Due to the multichannel architecture it helps in building links for availability. The two path link configurations in a ring architecture provides protection from fiber cuts.
