SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) modules are standardized network transceivers that support a range of data rates (1G, 10G, 25G) and fiber types. Long-distance variants, typically referred to as LX, EX, ZX, or ER/LR SFPs, are engineered with higher optical power budgets and longer wavelength. GIGALIGHT introduced its 400G QSFP-DD ER4-30km optical module with a live demonstration at the European Conference on Optical Communication (ECOC) 2025 in Copenhagen. The module uses narrow LAN-WDM wavelengths to deliver a cost-effective long-reach solution for hyperscale data centers and 5G. The Pen Shape Visual Fault Locator (VFL) is a robust, cost-effective fiber optical cable test tool for locating faults within OTDR dead zones. As a visual fault identifier (VFI), it can quickly identify faults in fiber optic jumper cables, distribution frames, patch panels, and splice trays. It provides calculations for both dBm and mW.
