Plug-in
Transceivers Increase Operational Flexibility and Reduce OPEX
Plug-in transceivers
introduce a paradigm shift in networking.These modules are interchangeable, so
that electro-optical or fiber optic networks can be upgraded and maintained more
conveniently than has been the case with traditional soldered-in modules.
Rather
than replacing an entire circuit board containing several soldered-in modules,
a
single module can be removed and replaced for repair or upgrading. This results
in a substantial cost savings, both in maintenance and in upgrading efforts.
Technology
Overview
Fiber
optic refers to the medium and the technology associated with the transmission
of
information as light impulses along a glass or plastic fiber. Optical fiber
carries much more
information than conventional copper wire and is far less
subject to electromagnetic interference.
To make use of the optical media,
one needs to use an active component called a
transceiver. A transceiver is
a combination transmitter/receiver in a single package.

Benefits and Features
Flexibility
1 – “pay-as-you-grow” add transceivers only when you need them
Flexibility 2 – where different distance needs are required, just replace
the transceiver and not the complete platform
Availability – hot-swap
support guarantee always-on service
Simplicity - just insert or extract the
transceiver - as simple as that!
Standard Solution – Telco offers a complete
line of standardsbased solutions for guaranteed interoperability
Port Density
Increase – its small size enables support of up to 720 Gigabit Ethernet ports
in a single rack with Telco Systems’
ATCA-based T6Pro Routing Switch
Cost Savings – commonly available standard transceivers (off-the-shelf)
- no need to build up stocks – complete interchangeability
