  • Single-fiber bidirectional line protection

    Single-fiber bidirectional line protection

    BD OLP, also known as BIDI OLP or single-fiber bidirectional 1+1 OLP, is an optical line protection method designed for situations where fiber resources are extremely limited. The system monitors the working optical fiber and a standby fiber in real time, detecting when the working path falls below a threshold. Designed for both cascaded and hub-and-spoke network topologies, the system ensures recovery from a single fiber cut in a ring. Traditional OLP protects 4-core optical fiber, but in many places, due to insufficient optical fiber resources, it is impossible to provide excessive optical fiber resources and optical line redundancy protection. Optical Line Protection System (OLP) is an automatic monitoring and protection system which is independent of telecommunication transmission.

    Why use a Bidi optical module

    BiDi transceiver, a compact optical transceiver with WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) technology and SFP multi-source protocol (MSA) compliance, allows fast data transmission using a single fiber optic for both sending and receiving signals, saving resources and cutting. BiDi transceiver, a compact optical transceiver with WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) technology and SFP multi-source protocol (MSA) compliance, allows fast data transmission using a single fiber optic for both sending and receiving signals, saving resources and cutting. a BiDi Transceiver (short for bidirectional transceiver) is an optical module that sends and receives data over a single strand of optical fiber by using two different wavelengths—one for transmit and one for receive. In practical terms it lets one fiber carry both directions of traffic. BiDi optical modules can do this by utilizing full-duplex communication over a single fiber strand via two wavelengths. Besides, bidi transceiver has only one simplex port for data transmitting and.
