Frequently Asked Questions
What is a QSFP28 BiDi transceiver and how does it work?
A QSFP28 BiDi transceiver is a high-speed optical module that transmits and receives 100 Gigabit data simultaneously over a single fiber strand using bidirectional wavelengths. This reduces fiber infrastructure costs while maintaining full 100G performance, making it ideal for data center environments where fiber runs are limited.
Is this Axiom QSFP28 module compatible with my Ruckus network equipment?
Yes, the Axiom 100GBASE-SR-BiDi QSFP28 is 100% compatible with Ruckus network switches and infrastructure. It arrives pre-configured with application-specific code, ensuring plug-and-play deployment without additional configuration steps.
What are the advantages of BiDi technology over standard QSFP28 modules?
BiDi technology transmits and receives data over a single fiber strand instead of requiring separate transmit and receive fibers. This reduces cabling complexity, lowers infrastructure costs, and simplifies network management while delivering full 100GBASE-SR performance.
What is the maximum transmission distance for this 100GBASE-SR-BiDi module?
The 100GBASE-SR-BiDi protocol supports short-reach distances, typically up to 100 meters over multimode fiber. This makes it ideal for intra-data-center connectivity and high-speed backbone connections within enterprise network environments.
