What is BiDi module?

Bi-Directional (BiDi) Transceiver is a compact optical transceiver module that uses WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) technology and is compliant with the SFP multi-source agreement (MSA).

How does a BiDi SFP work?

BiDi SFP allows a bi-directional communication on a single fiber by using wavelength multiplexing (WDM), which makes CO and CPE connection more simple. Compact SFP enormously increases CO port density by combining two single fiber transceivers into one SFP form factor.

What is BiDi Qsfp?

BIDI-40G-QSFP-150 is Multi-Vendor MSA Compatible QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) Transceiver, operating over pair of multimode optical fiber providing two optical communication lanes. BIDI-40G-QSFP-150 allows to reuse existing 10 Gbps multimode fiber infrastructure when migrating towards 40Gbps.

What are SFP modules used for?

SFP ports and their corresponding SFP modules are used to facilitate seamless, high-speed data communications or telecommunications connections over extended distances in a variety of applications.

What is 40G BiDi?

40G BiDi transceiver, known as QSFP+ bidirectional transceiver, operates over two different wavelengths to transmit and receive in both directions over one strand MMF by adopting WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) technology.

What is BiDi SFP+?

Eoptolink BIDI SFP+ transceivers are designed for bi-directional 10G serial optical data communications such as IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-BX by using 1330(1270) (1490nm) transmitter and 1270(1330) (1550nm) receiver.

How many multimode fibers Does the Cisco BiDi transceiver use?

Each Cisco QSFP 40-Gbps BiDi transceiver consists of two 20-Gbps transmit and receive channels in the 832-918 nanometer wavelength range, enabling an aggregated 40-Gbps link over a two-strand multimode fiber connection.

Is QSFP Compatible with SFP?

It allows cost-effective migration to 100G Ethernet by providing an option to use lower speed SFP or SFP+ modules in empty QSFP28 or QSFP+ port or when there is a necessity for lower speed connection. 100G QSFP28 port can take QSFP+ or QSFP28 optical transceivers.
