Optical Transceiver Types by Rate and Fibre
Optical transceivers divide most usefully by rate and by fibre type, because those two divisions decide the link a module can serve. This guide maps the types supplied on this site by rate and fibre, and it links to the product pages that carry a listed specification for each type that has one.
What this page covers
This page is a guide page for optical transceiver types. It gathers the models and guidance that belong to this line in one place, and it links to the individual product pages where a model has a listed specification. Lines that have only a title-level mention, with no detailed specification behind them, are described here at category level only and are not given a product page, because a product page without a listed specification would be guessing.
The distinction matters for buying. A category page answers which line a need belongs to and what to ask about; a product page answers the listed figures for one model. If you arrive here looking for a figure for a specific model, follow the link to that model page, and if no model page is linked, the figure is not published on this site and should be asked for in the enquiry rather than inferred from a neighbouring model.
How to specify this line
A usable enquiry for optical transceiver types starts with the rate, the wavelength, the fibre type and the distance, because those four items decide whether a module fits the link at all. The connector and the form factor come next, followed by the operating temperature range and whether digital diagnostics are required. Buyers who send only a rate, or only a model-style name, usually need a second round of questions before a quotation can be confirmed, so including the full set in the first message saves a cycle.
Distance figures deserve special care. A distance quoted for one fibre type does not transfer to another, and a distance quoted for one wavelength does not transfer to a different wavelength. On this site every distance is tied to the fibre and wavelength it was listed with, and where the source pages disagree the conflict is flagged on the page. If a distance matters for your link, name the fibre you will actually install and ask for the figure to be confirmed against that fibre before ordering.
What to confirm before ordering
Before an order is placed, confirm the model, the rate, the wavelength, the distance, the connector and the quantity in writing, and confirm any certification document you need by name. Minimum order quantity and lead time are unavailable at company level on this site, so ask for both per model in the enquiry rather than assuming a company-wide term. Quotations are confirmed per order, and specifications are confirmed per model before payment.
Compatibility is a separate check from the optical figures. A module that matches on rate and wavelength can still fail on a host platform that does not accept it, so name the host platform in the enquiry when compatibility matters. Where this site states a compatibility position, it states the source of that position, and it does not extend a compatibility statement from one model to another. If the platform is not named, compatibility cannot be confirmed from this page alone.
Types by rate on this site
By rate, this site covers 1.25G bidirectional modules, 10G single-mode modules, 40G multimode modules, 100G single-mode modules and 400G single-mode modules. Each rate has at least one product page with a listed specification, except where a rate appears only as a title, in which case this guide names the rate at category level and does not invent a product page for it. Rate alone never selects a module: the same rate appears on different fibre types, at different distances and with different connectors.
By fibre, the site covers multimode at 850nm for short links and single-mode at 1310nm and at the 1310nm and 1550nm pair for longer links. The fibre division interacts with the rate division, so the useful map is a grid of rate against fibre, not a single list. A buyer should locate the cell of that grid that matches the installed fibre and the required rate, and then check the product page for that cell.

Enquiry checklist
Before sending an enquiry, note the model or the rate you need, the wavelength, the fibre type, the distance, the connector, the quantity and the application. State whether the module must be compatible with a named host platform, and name any certification document you need. Minimum order quantity and lead time are unavailable at company level and are confirmed per model in the enquiry. Quotations are confirmed per order.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get a quotation?
Send an enquiry naming the model, the rate, the wavelength, the distance and the quantity you need, plus the application. Quotations are confirmed per order, and specifications are confirmed per model before payment. This site does not list fixed selling figures, and no price is shown for any model.
What certification documents can you provide?
The company states ISO 9001, CE, FC, 3C and RoHS names. Certificates are available upon request. If a buyer needs a certificate for a specific model, name the model in the enquiry so the correct document can be checked. No certificate numbers are published on this site.
Do the specifications on one page apply to the whole range?
No. Specifications are shown per model and must not be read across the whole range. Where a value is not listed for a model, the page says to confirm per model rather than filling in a generic figure, and where the source pages disagree, the page flags the conflict instead of choosing one value as fact.
What are the minimum order quantity and lead time?
At company level both are unavailable on this site and are confirmed per model in the enquiry. A single-model note, where one exists, is marked as applying to that model only and must not be read as a company-wide term.
