With the increasing demand for network bandwidth in scenarios such as 5G base station deployment, data center interconnect (DCI), and high-definition video transmission, 100G optical modules have become the mainstream choice. Transmission Format LR4 is used for long-distance transmission, SR4 is suitable for short distances, and ER4 can support ultra-long distance transmission. It utilizes a broader wavelength spacing of 20 nm compared to dense wavelength division. We introduced 5 Application Scenarios of Optical Modules in this article, Data Centers, Mobile Communication Base Station, Passive Wavelength Division systems, SAN/NAS Storage networks, and 5G Bearer networks. Single fiber QSFP28 modules (commonly called BiDi transceivers) enable full-duplex 100G communication over a single optical strand.
