2.5G BiDi SFP Optical Transceiver for Single-Fiber Data Center and Network Connectivity

2.5G BiDi SFP Optical Transceiver Overview

C-LIGHT 2.5G BiDi SFP optical transceivers are designed for bidirectional data transmission over a single optical fiber. By using different wavelengths for upstream and downstream signals, the BiDi architecture enables two-way communication while reducing the number of fiber strands required for a link.

The product family supports data rates up to 2.5Gb/s and provides transmission options from 300m to 120km. The portfolio combines multimode and single-mode configurations with complementary wavelength pairs, allowing the optical module to be selected according to both link distance and existing fiber infrastructure.

2.5G BiDi SFP Optical Transceiver Key Features

2.5Gb/s Bidirectional Transmission

The modules support optical transmission rates up to 2.5Gb/s for compatible Ethernet and fiber networking applications.

Single-Fiber Architecture

BiDi technology carries transmit and receive signals through the same fiber strand, helping reduce fiber consumption in network deployments.

300m to 120km Reach

The product family includes 300m, 5km, 20km, 40km, 80km, and 120km configurations for different network distances.

1310nm and 1550nm Pairing

The 5km to 40km configurations use complementary 1310nm/1550nm and 1550nm/1310nm wavelength combinations.

1490nm and 1550nm Long Reach

The 80km and 120km configurations use 1490nm/1550nm or 1550nm/1490nm wavelength pairs for extended transmission.

Multimode Short-Reach Option

The 300m versions use multimode fiber and complementary 1310nm/1550nm wavelength configurations.

LC or SC Connector Options

The listed product configurations support LC/SC connector options, providing flexibility for different fiber connection environments.

Commercial and Industrial Temperature

The available configurations support commercial and industrial case-temperature options for different deployment conditions.

2.5G BiDi SFP Optical Transceiver Applications

Data Center Interconnection

2.5G BiDi modules can provide bidirectional optical links between compatible data center equipment while making efficient use of available fiber resources.

Enterprise Network Backbone
