Visint’s HXT Transceiver Product Family is a collection of high performance, cost effective XFP transceiver modules ideal for 10G SDH/SONET, 10G Ethernet and other fiber optic transmission 9.95Gbps to 11.3Gbs and distance up to 40km, the HXT family  of  products  is  the  premier  choice for transceiver applications.

 

This transceiver contains both transmit and receive

sections. An EML, (13100nm, Cooled or Un-cooled laser) a laser driver and the supporting circuits constitute the transmit section while an APD or PIN ROSA and the supporting circuits form the receive section. A microcontroller handles the communications between the module and the host board as well as the control and  monitoring functions for both transmit and receive sections. A Clock and Data Recovery circuit (CDR) functions for both transmit and receive.

 

The transceiver module is fully compliant to the XFP MSA standard and can be hot-plugged into the 30-pin XFP connector on the host board. By limiting inrush currents, the device will not disturb the operations of the host board. The high-speed electrical interface is fully compliant with the XFI standard, providing transmission paths for the 10G signals.
