Gigabit Optical Module Optical Attenuation Requirements

Home / Gigabit Optical Module Optical Attenuation Requirements

Actual attenuation requirements will vary depending on the specific transmitter output power and receiver sensitivity of the optical modules in use. 1 describes a 10-Gigabit-capable symmetric passive optical network (XGS-PON) system in an optical access network for residential, business, mobile backhaul and other applications. There are three wavelength windows for 10G optical module communication applications, namely the 850nm window, 1310nm window, and 1550nm window. These modules are typically installed in Optical Line Terminals (OLTs) at the service provider's central office and Optical Network Units (ONUs) or Optical Network.
