OM6253ZX210 is a tunable transceiver module designed for 80 km optical communication applications, and it is compliant to SFP+ MSA standard. This module can convert a 10 Gbps electrical data to 10 Gbps optical signals. They are compliant with SFP+ MSA, SFF-8431 and SFF-8472, and are mainly used in Telecom, Wireless, InfiniBand, and Fiber Channel. The transceiver is RoHS compliant. Smartoptics multiprotocol SFP+ transceivers support Fibre Channel speeds up to 16G and 10G Ethernet for storage, enterprise and mobile networks. SFP+ transceivers are focused on SAN protocols ranging from 1G up to 16G while also supporting other protocols such as Ethernet.
[pdf] Many different forms of optical modulation and multiplexing have been employed in coherent optical modules. Some coherent optical modules can fall back to older, simpler modulation techniques such as (NRZ) and/or with 4 levels (PAM-4) when appropriate. This is used, for example, when it is discovered that the module on the other end of the link does not support coherent.
