Q: Does this require single mode fiber (SMF), and must we use an MPO-12 APC connector, or will UPC work? By L***n
A: This silicon photonics transceiver is designed exclusively for Single Mode Fiber (SMF) up to 500m. It requires an MPO-12/APC (Angled Physical Contact) connector to minimize return loss; a UPC connector will not work properly here. By admin
Q: Do you offer an industrial wide-temperature version of this 400G module? By C***g
A: This specific SKU supports commercial operating temperatures (0°C to 70°C). However, we do manufacture industrial-grade (-40°C to 85°C) 400G optics for harsh outdoor environments. Just reach out to our support team for the exact industrial SKU. By admin
