Fiber optical modules

    Fiber optical modules (SFP XFP GBIC) are used for optical signal transmission through optical fiber. It has a strong advantage in long distance transmission within low-loss. The commonly used optical modules including: optical transmitters, optical receivers, transceivers and transponders.
    Transceiver’s main function is to achieve the transformation between optical and electricity, including power control, modulation sends, signal detection, IV conversion, limiting amplifier judgment regeneration, TX-disable, security information inquiry. The common transceivers are SIP9, SFF, SFP, GBIC and XFP.
    In addition to the photoelectric conversion function, Transponder also integrates a lot of signal processing functions, such as MUX/DEMUX, CDR, function control, monitoring and Performance variables acquisition. The common transponders are 200/300pin, XENPAK, X2 etc.
    The fiber optical module’s data rate refers to the bits of transmission per second of unit Mb/s or Gb/s. The transmission distance of modules is divided into short distance, long distance and middle distance. Usually we defined no longer than 2km is short distance, 10km to 20 km is middle distance and 30km or more is long distance. The center wavelength of modules usually has 3 main used kinds: 850nm, 1310nm and 1550nm. 850nm used for short distance transmission, the remaining two kinds of wavelength are used for middle and long distance transmission.
    SOPTO improve cost-effective optical modules range from low rate up to 10G, for instance, the series of GBIC, SFP, SFP+, XFP, SFF, 1*9 and compatible with main brand, H3C,Cisco, Huawei, HP, Nortel, D-link and so on.

1000 base-t gigabit Ethernet twisted pair transceiver technology

1000BASE-T twisted pair transceiver module has been widely used in Gigabit Ethernet. Category 5 UTP is the carrying medium of 1000BASE-T, is also the most widely used Ethernet transmission medium.
1000BASE-T technology can take advantage of the existing cable facilities to protect customers’ existing investment, so as to provide customers with the most cost-effective Gigabit connectivity solution.
1000BASE-T technology used in the following three aspects: (A) the interconnection of high-speed network equipment (B) high-speed access to the server (C) high-speed desktop access

1000BASE-T twisted pair transceiver module can Gigabit transmit in the existing Category 5 UTP, which make the traditional 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection smoothly upgrade to Gigabit Ethernet, and greatly reduce the cost of the Ethernet upgrade. The optical communication module manufacturer, Shenzhen Sopto Technology Co., Ltd. has launched 1000BASE-T and 10G cable transceivers with auto-negotiation. The transceiver modules use SFP and SFP+ mini-package, could be widely used in Gigabit Ethernet communication products that provide by the famous manufacturers in the world.

CSFP and CSFF, the future stars in the networking solutions

With the development of the cut edge technologies and trends of the telecommunication and networking industry, Sopto have started to develop the compact small form-factor pluggable CSFP transceivers and compact small form-factor CSFF transceivers which support network systems, especially those organizing single fiber bidirectional transceivers in high density applications, and enable network system operators to increase port density and data throughput, while reducing network equipment cost.
The CSFP MSA defines a transceiver mechanical form-factor with latching mechanism and a host board, SFP-like, electrical edge connector and cage. The CSFF MSA also defines a transceiver mechanical form-factor.
The dual-channel CSFP is compatible with the standard SFP cage. The single-channel CSFP and CSFF are half the size of the industry-standard SFP and SFF packages. The CSFF design is modular to enable configurations of integrated 2ch modules. In the future Sopto will develop 4ch CSFP modules.

Time Management I Learnt from Sopto Family

Sopto provides lot of trainings for developing the abilities of all employees, including the fiber optical products training, etiquette training, international trade training, e-commerce training, as well as other skills training like personal time management. These are essential skills for effective persons. Let’s talk a little about work smarter and improve time utilization.
People who use these techniques consistently are the highest achievers in all walks of life, from business to sport to public service. You will be able to function effectively, even under intense pressure if you use skills well. At the heart of time management is an important move in focus:
Concentrate on results, not on being busy!
Many people spend their days in a frenzy of activity, but achieve very little because they are not concentrating on the right things.
The 80:20 Rule
This is neatly summed up in the Pareto Principle, or the '80:20 Rule'. This argues that typically 80% of unfocussed efforts generate only 20% of outcomes. The rest 80% of results are achieved with only 20% of the effort. While the ratio is not always 80:20, this broad form of a small proportion of activity generating non-scalar returns recurs so frequently as to be the norm in many areas.

Personally, I have benefited from the first step which requires us to record what I do in every single hour. Few days later, it is really clear that how I spend time in the work. How much efforts achieve how many results. Now I learnt how to set realistic goals, generate a plan and leverage all of the opportunities that work offers.

SOPTO 10G Dual UTP network cards coming soon in 2012

Intel officially released an Ethernet controller called X540 on Mar., 8 2012. As the first fully integrated program 10 Gigabit network chip in the industry, X540 single-core program can save space and energy, this is appropriate for the onboard programs and independent card programs.

Additionally, the Intel X540 can be down compatible with 10M/100M/1000M network as well. Just like others Intel Gigabit networking cards, Intel X540 offers the advanced I / O virtualization, and supports ISCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface) and FCoE (Fiber Channel over Ethernet) functionality, which is the best partner for Sandy Bridge-EP architecture Xeon E5 series products that released a few days ago.

Intel X540 controller adopts an independent card X540-the AT2. Its interface is PCIe 2.1. At the same time, SOPTO has been developing a new 10G network chip which can be down compatible with 10M/100M/1000M network. New generation of Sopto network cards will be 10Gigabit Ethernet Server Adapters X540 with dual UTP ports.
