Do you know the difference between active optical cables and optical modules? Today, Yi Tianguang Communication will talk about the difference between 40G AOC and 40G SR4. Let's take a look.
What is 40G QSFP+ AOC cable?
40G QSFP+ AOC active optical cable is composed of multi-mode fiber and two QSFP+ connectors. It has four data channels in each signal direction, and the transmission rate of each channel can reach up to 11.3Gbit/s, and the transmission distance can reach up to 150M is an ideal interconnection solution for 40G networks, mainly used in 40G data center computer rooms and cloud computing systems.
What is a 40G QSFP+ SR4 optical module?
The 40G QSFP+ SR4 optical module adopts the QSFP+ package type, that is, a four-channel small hot-swappable optical module with a transmission rate of 40Gbps. It has four independent transmit and receive optical signal channels, and each channel can support 10Gbps data transmission. The long transmission distance is 150M, which is mainly used in routers, switches and host adapter buses.
