CFP 100GBASE-SR10 / OTU4 Parallel Optical Module

Designed to support the IEEE 100GBASE-SR10 link specification; the newly developed Reflex 100G CFP transceiver provides increased port density and total system cost savings. The Reflex CFP module has a single MPO port which connects to an industry standard 2x12 multi-mode fiber cable. One 2x12 multimode optical fiber cable terminated with MPO optical connectors connects two CFP modules. Electrical connection is achieved though a z-pluggable 148-pin connector.

Reflex Photonics hot-pluggable CFP modules offer 10 transmit and 10 receive asynchronous channels operating at up to 11.2 Gbps per channel. These modules are designed for very short reach applications (1m to 200m) on high-bandwidth multi-mode parallel optical fiber cables. The transmitter side of the module consists of an array of 10 850nm VCSELs (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers) and associated circuitry, which converts 10 parallel electrical data inputs to 10 parallel optical data output signals. The receiver side converts 10 parallel optical signals into 10 parallel electrical signals through an array of 10 PIN photodiodes, TIA / LAs and associated circuitry.

The module has been designed to meet the harshest external operating conditions including temperature, humidity and EMI interference using Reflex Photonics’ next generation, LightABLE™ packaging technology. The modules offer very high functionality and feature integration, accessible via an MDIO interface.
