    100G QSFP28 BiDi 80KM FAQ

    Q1: What is a 100G QSFP28 BiDi 80KM transceiver?

    A: A 100G QSFP28 BiDi 80KM transceiver is a single-fiber optical module designed for long-distance 100GbE and OTU4 transmission. Using BiDi technology, it enables bidirectional communication over one fiber, helping reduce fiber usage and deployment costs.

    Key features include:

    • 100G Ethernet & OTU4 support

    • Single-fiber BiDi transmission

    • Up to 80km reach

    • QSFP28 MSA compliant

    • Simplex LC connector

    It is ideal for telecom networks, Data Center Interconnect (DCI), metro networks, and enterprise optical communication systems.

    Q2: How does a 100G QSFP28 BiDi transceiver work?

    A: A 100G QSFP28 BiDi module uses four LAN-WDM wavelengths to transmit and receive data over a single optical fiber. It operates as an A/B paired solution, with each module using complementary transmit and receive wavelengths for bidirectional communication.

    This design maximizes fiber utilization while maintaining stable and reliable 100G transmission over distances of up to 80km.

    Q3: What are the key features of the C-LIGHT 100G QSFP28 BiDi 80KM?
