With the rapid growth of traffic today, data centers have undergone large-scale upgrades and expansions, so people's demand for optical modules is also increasing. In order to meet the needs of different rate networks and application environments, optical modules with different transmission rates are produced on the market for selection. Given that some novice users who have just entered the communication industry do not know how to check the rate of optical modules, how should we choose a gigabit optical module? What about the speed of the optical module?

　　Today, with the prevalence of 5G, optical modules are also developing rapidly. From low-speed 100G, 10G, and 10G to high-speed 100G, 200G, and 400G, the price of optical modules has also increased, and different modules are used in different scenarios. , if it is used in Gigabit Ethernet, you only need to use Gigabit optical modules.

　　What we usually call a gigabit optical module refers to an optical module with a transmission rate of 1.25Gbps. It generally has two packages, SFP and GBIC. The common package is SFP package, because the volume is reduced by half compared to GBIC module, and other functions are basically the same as GBIC. Consistent, it can be simply understood as an upgraded version of GBIC, and the transmission distance can reach 80-160km. The Gigabit optical module is used in Gigabit Ethernet, and it is a kind of optical module that is widely used in small and medium-sized data centers.

　　The gigabit optical module is already a very mature series of products, and its advantages such as low power consumption, small size, long transmission distance and low price are favored by the majority of users.

　　Because of its mature product series, there are a variety of gigabit optical modules. The selection of gigabit optical modules in applications depends on the specific application scenarios, such as the type of equipment to be adapted, fiber resources, transmission distance, and so on. If you have the needs of gigabit optical modules, welcome to inquire and negotiate, we will serve you wholeheartedly!
