🚀 Understanding Transmission Distance: Short-Range vs Long-Range Optical Modules👇

⁉️ Do you really need a 10km module for a 300m connection? Many customers unknowingly overspend by not matching transceiver distance with real needs.

✴️ Product Knowledge:

✅ SR (Short Reach): Typically up to 300m on MMF (Multi-Mode Fiber)

✅ LR (Long Reach): Up to 10km on SMF (Single-Mode Fiber)

✅ ER/ZR: Extended ranges up to 40km or more

✔️ Choosing the Right One:

🔎 Match fiber type (MMF or SMF)

🔎 Consider link budget and optical power

🔎 Watch for connector compatibility (LC, SC)

✴️ Pain Points Solved:

⚠️ Buying long-range modules that never get used

⚠️ Misjudging fiber type leads to loss of signal

⚠️ Unexpected link failures due to low optical budget
