- Partner
- Hisense Broadband
Hisense Broadband has an extensive portfolio of XFP form factor transceiver products suitable for a breadth of applications to include datacom, telecom, storage area networking (SAN) and passive optical networks (PON).
The modules are fully MSA compliant and include the I²C serial interface to control specific functionality installed in certain types of modules and also to monitor parameters such as laser bias current, transmitter output power, receiver input power and temperature/voltage inside the module.
Transceivers for single-mode fibre covering distances up to 80 km are complemented by single fibre (bi-directional) modules and an especially extensive range of transceivers compliant to several different PON standards
