How to dissipate heat for the optical transceiver

 Determine the operating temperature range of the optical transceiver

The selection of Cisco SFP-10G-SR modules needs to be based on application scenarios to select optical transceivers with different operating temperature levels to prevent optical transceivers from being unable to be used normally due to harsh environments. Generally speaking, commercial-grade optical transceivers can be used in network environments such as corporate networks and data centers, because the temperature of the indoor data center can be controlled, and the indoor computer room could be equipped with air conditioners and temperature and humidity controllers to control the working environment temperature of the equipment in the computer room. Ensure that the actual application environment temperature of the optical transceiver is within the acceptable temperature selection of the optical transceiver.

If it can be used in industrial Ethernet and outdoor base stations, due to the large operating temperature range and the variable outdoor temperature, in order to ensure the normal operation of the optical transceiver, it is necessary to choose an industrial-grade optical transceiver to avoid the excessive temperature of the optical transceiver causing excessive optical power. Causes problems such as for example receiving signal errors and packet loss.

In addition, the incompatibility between the Cisco GLC-SX-MM modules and these devices can easily lead to abnormal temperature. Before purchasing the optical transceiver, you should fully understand the optical transceiver details supported on the device such as the switch/optical transceiver, like the speed, model, transmission distance and other parameters. So pick the corresponding optical transceiver to match the device.

Check whether the heat dissipation conditions of the optical transceiver are qualified

1.Check if the cooling products in the computer room is operating normally. Air conditioners and temperature and humidity controllers can effectively control the working environment of the optical transceiver within the applicable range.

2.Select the plug-in device with good heat dissipation function. For example, the matched switch must have an airflow baffle and the front panel of the switch adopts an open design, etc., a device with good heat dissipation function, so that the temperature of these devices will not be too high during long hours of work, that will affect the temperature of the optical transceiver.

OEMfibers communication can provide customized services for different application scenarios, including optical transceiver temperature customization. Optical transceivers with commercial and commercial temperature ranges can be personalized according to your needs, and the provided optical transceivers can support digital diagnostic functions (DDM), which effectively helps users monitor various parameters of the optical transceiver in real time, such as temperature, received optical power, and transmitted optical power.
