Transceivers Classified
Overview
Fiber Optic Transceivers acts as an optical module to facilitate photoelectric
conversion where the transmitter end takes in and converts the electrical signal in to
light. The optical fiber transmission occurs in the fiber cable plant to reach the
receiving end, which converts the light signals into electrical components. Both the
transmitters end and the receiver end have their own circuitry, and that handles all the
transmissions in both directions.
The Built-in Switching Power Transceiver are made for the carrier grade power. It
supports a wide power supply voltage regulations and filtering reducing any external
point of failure that is caused by the mechanical contact.
The External Power Supply Transceiver are made for the multi-use civilian equipment.
This type of device is compact and cheap.
D. CLASSIFICATION ACCORDING TO WORK RATE
The above type of classification brings about two distinct types. These are;
1. Full Duplex Mode
2. Half Duplex Mode
Full Duplex Mode
This occurs when the data transmission and reception of the shunt is respectively
transmitted by two different transmission lines. The communication on both sides
occurs with the sending and the receiving operations taking place at the same time.
The full duplex mode occurs without the need for the switching of the direction and
no switching time delay is generated by the operation.
Half Duplex Mode
This mode is used with a transmission line, for both the reception and the
transmission. The data may thus be transmitted in both directions in the Fiber Optic
Transceiver, but the communicating parties cannot have a simultaneous sending and
receiving of data at the same time.
