Calix 105166 1550nm Transceiver

Description

The Calix 105166 transceiver module operates at a wavelength of 1550nm, which is commonly used for long-haul and extended-reach optical communication over single-mode fiber (SMF). The 1550nm wavelength offers lower signal attenuation in optical fibers compared to shorter wavelengths, enabling data transmission over significantly longer distances, often tens or even hundreds of kilometers, depending on the specific transceiver and fiber characteristics. This module is likely designed for use in carrier-grade telecommunications and service provider networks, where Calix is a prominent vendor. It could support various data rates, such as Gigabit Ethernet (1Gbps), 2.5Gbps (e.g., SONET/SDH), or even 10Gbps, depending on the specific product variant. The connector type is typically an LC or SC connector, standard interfaces for fiber optic connections. As a component within Calix's broader portfolio of broadband access and network solutions, the 105166 transceiver plays a vital role in extending network reach and capacity. Its operation at 1550nm on single-mode fiber makes it suitable for applications like fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) backhaul, metro network interconnects, and other scenarios requiring robust, long-distance optical links.
