Introduction:In this article we will talk about the 1000BASE-SR Ethernet standard and what are the difference between 1000BASE-SR and 1000BASE-LX, All this just to give you more understanding about 1000BASE-SR technology. What is the 1000BASE-SR technology?1000BASE-SR SFP (Short Reach)is a port type

Cisco QSFP-40G-SR-BD OverviewThe Cisco QSFP BiDi transceiver addresses the challenges of fiber infrastructure by providing the capability to transmit full-duplex 40-Gbps traffic over one duplex MMF cable with LC connectors. In another words, the Cisco QSFP BiDi transceiver allows 40-connectivity to

DefinitionMuxponder: In optical fiber communications, a muxponder is the element that sends and receives the optical signal from a fiber in much the same way as a transponder except that the muxponder has the additional functionality of multiplexing multiple sub-rate client interfaces onto the line

DefinitionCable is the medium through which information usually moves from one network device to another. There are several types of cable which are commonly used with LANs. In some cases, a network will utilize only one type of cable, other networks will use a variety of cable types. The type of ca
