Both the optical transceiver and the
optical fiber transceiver are a transmission tool with optical fiber as the carrier, and both have the function of photoelectric conversion, also called photoelectric converter. Although the two have the same functions, they are essentially different. The following describes the differences between the two.
Although optical transceivers and transceivers are both signal transmission equipment, they are very different in nature, but few people really understand these differences. Most people still use Shenzhen optical transceivers among transceivers, even if they do not. People who use it in this way will also feel that the two are interchangeable.
The difference between optical transceiver and transceiver:
1. Although the transceiver can perform photoelectric conversion, it cannot process data, and it can only connect point-to-point.
2. The optical transceiver can realize the multiplexing and demultiplexing of data signals, so it is slightly more powerful in function.
3. There are many pairs of E1 lines coming out of the optical transceiver. SDH and PDH optical transceivers are mainly used in telecom operators to provide multi-point-to-point data circuits; video optical transceivers are mainly used in security monitoring, distance education, video conferencing and other fields that require high timeliness of video transmission. Transmission control, switching, voice, Ethernet and other signals to meet the needs of multi-service applications, this is something that transceivers cannot have.
