  • What is a dual-port optical module transceiver

    What is a dual-port optical module transceiver

    Employing two fibers strands that each carry the same wavelength, dual fiber transceivers offer two channels or ports for transmitting (TX) and receiving (RX) data transmission and reception respectively. For example, one module might transmit at 1310nm and receive at 1550nm, while the other does the opposite. Optical modules typically have an electrical interface on the side that connects to the inside of the system and an optical interface on the side that connects to the outside. The NVIDIA MMS4A00 is a 1600Gb/s 2xDR4, single mode optical transceiver supporting the XDR 800Gb/s InfiniBand protocol. The line rate is 200Gb/s using Pulse Amplitude Modulation at 4-channels denoted as 200G-PAM4 enabling two data bits to transfer per clock pulse.
