  • 100M optical module light receiving sensitivity

    100M optical module light receiving sensitivity

    Receive sensitivity defines the minimum optical power required to maintain an acceptable bit error rate (BER ≤ 1E-12) at specific data rates. This parameter depends on multiple technical factors including photodetector type (PIN/APD) and transimpedance amplifier (TIA) noise. In optical communication systems, sensitivity is a measure of how weak an input signal can get before the bit-error ratio (BER) exceeds some specified number. For example, SONET specifies that the BER must be 10 -10 or better. Industry pundits have recently speculated that demand for 100G/400G switches may take off in 2019, prompting optical transceiver module vendors to sample data center switches with high data transmission rates earlier than expected. It denotes a module's capability to function in challenging environments and aids network operators in determining the system's maximum reach or link margin. The product implements digital diag iv Intens LO fined in the SFP MSA and accesses. Transmit power is the power at which the transmitter of an optical transceiver module transmits optical signals in dBm.
