Product Overview
The Calix 100-01666 is a BX-U Bi-Directional (BiDi) SFP transceiver module. It operates using a single strand of single-mode fiber (SMF), transmitting at 1310nm (TX) and receiving at 1550nm (RX). This module is designed for distances up to 20km and is ideal for applications where fiber port count is limited.

Product Description
The Calix 100-01666 is an innovative Bi-Directional (BiDi) SFP transceiver module designed to optimize fiber optic usage. Unlike traditional transceivers that require two separate fiber strands (one for transmitting and one for receiving), this module utilizes a single strand of single-mode fiber (SMF) by transmitting data on one wavelength (1310nm) and receiving data on another (1550nm). This unique capability allows for doubling the fiber capacity on existing infrastructure or reducing the number of fiber cables required for new deployments. This BX-U variant is specifically configured for transmitting at 1310nm and receiving at 1550nm. It supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds and is designed for reliable data transmission over distances of up to 20 kilometers. The use of single-mode fiber is essential for achieving this range and maintaining signal integrity. The module typically uses a single LC connector, as both transmit and receive signals are multiplexed onto the same fiber strand. The Calix 100-01666 is an excellent solution for network engineers and administrators looking to maximize their fiber optic resources, particularly in scenarios where fiber availability is limited or costly. It is commonly deployed in carrier networks, enterprise backbones, and metro Ethernet applications where efficient use of fiber infrastructure is a priority. This BiDi transceiver provides a cost-effective and efficient way to extend network connectivity.
