Handles four different channel configurations

18
Q

Bidirectional

A

BiDi
Uses wavelength division multiplexing (WDM)
Simultaneous transmission on a single fiber in birth directions

Used only for fiber
Different frequencies used

19
Q

BiDi SFP and SFP+

A

Rescued infrastructure costs

Less cabling, tray space and fewer latch panel ports needed

20
Q

Duplex Tranceiver

A

Inter connects devices using different Dulles configurations

2 fibers, 1 sends and 1 to root

Half Duplex = send and receives both directions one at a time

Full Duplex = send and receive both at the same time

21
Q
