Optical transceiver vendor Champion ONE today announced the launch of its bi-directional (bidi) or single fiber 60km 10G SFP+ and XFP transceivers.
Champion ONE says the new pluggable technology, which serves as a direct replacement for hot pluggable OEM transceivers, enables telecom service providers, healthcare institutions, universities and enterprises to optimize their network by virtually doubling their fiber plant and extending the life of their network without the expense of running new fiber.
Telecoms can double their fiber plant as well as halve fiber leasing costs by enabling transmission of a full 10Gbps duplex signal over a single strand of optical fiber.
There are cost benefits as well from the MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compliant 60km single fiber transceivers. Utilizing single fiber optics saves money by providing an alternative to implementing an expensive active CWDM or DWDM system.
“As bandwidth demand increases, network expansion investments are being made to support higher levels of customer traffic. Our 60km 10G SFP+ and XFP single fiber transceivers will help reduce fiber installation or lease costs while improving network capacity and ROI by enabling providers to serve more customers with fewer optical fibers,” said John Jutila, CEO of Champion ONE.
