Product Overview

The Lightware Generic SFP+ SM BiDi "A" is a 10Gbps single-mode fiber transceiver in the BiDi (bidirectional) "A" configuration. Used at one end of a single-strand fiber link, it pairs with the BiDi "B" module at the far end to deliver full-duplex 10G connectivity over a single fiber strand. Suitable for Lightware-compatible SFP+ network equipment in commercial AV and IT environments.

Product Description

Lightware Generic SFP+ SM BiDi A 10G Transceiver

BiDi transceivers use wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) to send and receive on a single fiber strand. The "A" module transmits on one wavelength and receives on another, forming a complementary pair with the "B" module. This halves the fiber count compared to conventional dual-strand SFP+ deployments, making it cost-effective where fiber conduit space is limited or where single-strand infrastructure already exists.

Available at Creation Networks, an authorized Lightware reseller.
