I/O Tranceivers comply with GBIC Revision 5.5.

Press Release Summary:



Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) modules support 850, 1,310, and 1,550 nm wavelength and 1.25 and 1.0625 Gbps data rates at working distances from 300 m to 10 km. Suited for high performance, point-to-point communication requiring gigabit or fiber channel interconnections, hot pluggable units have low EMI and low power dissipation. With up to 1.25 Gbps bi-directional data link, they are compliant with IEC 60825-1, IEC 60825-2, and IEEE 802.3z/Gigabit Ethernet specifications.

GAO Tek Inc. Releases Trendware Compatible GBICs



Toronto, ON - GAO Tek Inc. has released a series of Gigabit Interface Convertors (GIBC) that are fully compatible with Trendware's original products. GAO's GBIC modules support 850nm, 1310nm, 1550nm wavelength, 1.25Gbps and 1.0625Gbps data rates at working distances from 300 meters to 10 kilo meters.

GBICs are input/output transceivers where one end of the transceiver plugs into a Gigabit Ethernet port at the switch and the other end connects to the fiber optic patch cords linking to the fiber optic network. Thus, the GBIC modules function is to transform signals between the Ethernet network and the fiber optic network. GBIC classifications are based on their working wavelengths, data transmission rates, working power, and working distance. Generally, at the fiber optic end the interface is an SC type. The laser unit in a GBIC module can be 850nm VCSEL, 1310nm FP, 1310nm DFB, and 1550nm DFB.

GBIC transceivers are hot pluggable; this feature allows a suitably designed enclosure to be changed from one type of external interface to another simply by plugging in a GBIC that has the alternative external interface. GBIC transceivers are suitable for interconnections in Gigabit Ethernet hubs and switches environment. The design of these converters is practical for high performance, point-to-point communication requiring gigabit or fiber channel interconnections.

Features for typical types GBIC modules:

o Compliant with Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) Revision 5.5
o Compliant with proposed specifications for IEEE 802.3z/Gigabit Ethernet
o Up to 1.25Gb/s bi-directional data link
o Various kinds of wavelength and working distances optional
o Extended power supply +3.3/5.0V compatible
o Hot pluggable
o Low EMI
o Low power dissipation
o Class 1 Laser Product Compliant with the Requirements of IEC 60825-1 and IEC 60825-2

The following Trendware compatible products are now available at highly competitive prices:

TEG-GBSX
