how optical modules are used in base stations?

 by www.fiber-mart.com

The communication triangular tower is composed of antenna, computer room, base station, feeder, and supporting equipment. The antenna is at the top of the triangular tower, and there is a computer room under the tower. The computer room is mainly for the base station, and the base station is the equipment that transmits wireless signals. The base station is logically divided into two parts: BBU and RRU. RRU is responsible for signal transmission and reception, and BBU is responsible for signal processing. The feeder is used to connect the antenna and the base station, and the supporting equipment is mainly the power supply and air conditioner.
 
The distributed site separates the BBU and RRU of the base station. The RRU is hung on the tower, and the BBU is placed in the equipment room under the tower. The CPRI protocol transmits physical layer data between the BBU and the RRU, which not only includes the bearer data, but also contains a large amount of physical data. layer information.
 
 The transmission carriers connecting BBU and RRU devices are optical modules and optical fibers. In 2/3/4G networks, 10Gbps optical modules are generally enough for CPRI interfaces. In 5G networks, CPRI is also upgraded to eCPRI. Currently, 5G of the bearer network mainly uses 25Gbps optical modules.
 
Next, fiber-mart.com will introduce the types of optical modules used by 10G SFP+ and 25G SFP28 optical modules to connect BBU and RRU devices.
 
10G SFP+ CPRI SR 300M（Industrial）
 
The product model of fiber-mart.com is ES85X-3LID03, which adopts 850nm VCSEL laser and PIN photodetector, and the operating temperature range is -40℃-85℃. It conforms to SFP28 MSA, IEEE 802.3 25GBASE-SR Ethernet and CPRI standards. Optical fiber transmission distance up to 300m (OM3).
 
 25G SFP28 CPRI/eCPRI SR 100M（Industrial）
 
The product model of fiber-mart.com is ES2852X-3LID01. It adopts 850nm VCSEL laser and PIN photodetector, and the operating temperature range is -40℃-85℃. It conforms to SFP28 MSA, IEEE 802.3 25GBASE-SR Ethernet and CPRI/eCPRI standards. Multimode fiber transmission distance up to 70m (OM3) or 100m (OM4).
 
The arrival of 5G has brought huge changes to our lives. The most obvious thing is that the network speed has become faster, and the mobile phone has changed from 4G to 5G mobile phone. The development of technology and VR.

Common Armored Fiber Optic Cables

  Armored fiber optic cables are often installed in a network for added mechanical protection, as they have extra reinforcing in the cable housing to prevent damage. Two types of armored fiber optic cables exist: interlocking and corrugated. Interlocking armor is an aluminum armor that is helically wrapped around the cable and found in indoor and indoor/outdoor cables. It offers ruggedness and superior crush resistance. Corrugated armor is a coated steel tape folded around the cable longitudinally. It is found in outdoor cables and offers extra mechanical and rodent protection.   The Structure of an Armored Fiber Optic Cable In basic armored fiber cable designs, the outer sleeve provides protection against wind, solvents, and abrasion. This outer sleeve is usually made of plastic such as polyethylene. The next layer between the sleeve and the inner jacket is an armoring layer of materials that are difficult to cut, chew, or bu

what the Differences Between FBT Splitter and PLC Splitter

  In FTTx and PON architectures, optical splitter plays an increasingly significant role to create a variety of point-to-multipoint fiber optic networks. But do you know what is a fiber optic splitter? In fact, a fiber optic splitter is a passive optical device that can split or separate an incident light beam into two or more light beams. Basically, there are two types of fiber splitter classified by their working principle: fused biconical taper splitter (FBT splitter) and planar lightwave circuit splitter (PLC splitter). You may have one question: what’s the difference between them and shall we use FBT or PLC splitter?   What Is FBT Splitter? FBT splitter is based on a traditional technology to weld several fiber together from side of the fiber. Fibers are aligned by heating for a specific location and length. Because the fused fibers are very fragile, they are protected by a glass tube made of epoxy and silica powder. And then a stainless steel tube covers the inner glass tu

Introduction of Optical Fiber Couplers and How Do They Work?

 What are optical fiber couplers? A fiber optic coupler can be defined as an optical component used with one or more input fibers and several output fibers in fiber optic systems. A coupler essentially puts two or more cores of fibers together to connect. The simple coupler is the fused fiber 2x2 coupler. Couplers are used as multiplexers that are resistant to certain wavelengths. A fiber output depends on the wavelength of light and the frequency of polarization. The fiber refractive index also plays a significant role in the performance. Let’s checkout how do optic couplers work to understand this better. How do fiber optic couplers work? Either fiber optic couplers separate optical signals into multiple paths or combine multiple signals in one direction. Optical signals are more complicated than electrical signals, making it more difficult to design optical couplers than their electrical copy. Unlike electrical currents, the optical signal consists of a stream of signal carriers, in
