Function and working principle of optical fiber switch

A fiber optic transceiver (also known as a fiber optic switch) converts the electrical interface of Ethernet to the optical interface. Fiber switches can be configured with one or more Ethernet ports and one or more optical interfaces, which extend the transmission distance of Ethernet from 100m of copper cable to 2km (multi-mode fiber) or 120km (single-mode fiber). It can simply realize the interconnection between multiple motherboard servers, Repeaters, hubs, terminals and multiple terminals. Using mature exchange core, equipped with a variety of optical fiber interfaces, support hot plugging, with flexible, efficient, reliable and other characteristics. It is suitable for telecommunications, radio and television, broadband network, million HD video surveillance and other network environments requiring high performance and high reliability.


The function and working principle of optical fiber switch: Optical fiber switch is a kind of high-speed network transmission and relay equipment, which USES optical fiber cable as the transmission medium compared with the common switch. The advantages of optical fiber transmission are fast speed and strong anti-interference ability.


It is characterized by the use of high transmission rate fiber channel and server network, or SAN(StorageAreaNetwork, StorageAreaNetwork) internal components of the network connection, so that the entire storage network has a very wide bandwidth, providing high-performance data storage protection. The key to this SAN storage network is the fiber-optic switch (FCSwitch), which we often hear about.
