DWDM (IEEE 802.3) Dense wavelength division
multiplexing, which uses one single-
mode fiber to transmit signals on
multiple channels. It transmits data at
1 Gbit/s over a distance within 120
km.
SFP+ 10GE 10Gbase-USR (IEEE
802.3)
Uses one Rx multimode fiber and one
Tx multimode fiber to transmit data at
10 Gbit/s over a distance within 100
m.
10Gbase-BX (IEEE
802.3)
Uses one single-mode fiber for
bidirectional transmission at 10 Gbit/
s over a distance within 10 km.
10GBASE-iLR Uses one Rx multimode fiber and one
Tx multimode fiber to transmit data at
10 Gbit/s over a distance within 1.4
km.
SFP+ 10GE 10GBASE-SR (IEEE
802.3ae)
Uses one Rx multimode fiber and one
Tx multimode fiber to transmit data at
10 Gbit/s over a distance within 400
m.
10GBASE-LR (IEEE
802.3ae)
Uses one Rx single-mode fiber and
one Tx single-mode fiber to transmit
data at 10 Gbit/s over a distance within
10 km.
10GBASE-ER (IEEE
802.3ae)
Uses one Rx single-mode fiber and
one Tx single-mode fiber to transmit
data at 10 Gbit/s over a distance within
40 km.
10Gbase-ZR (IEEE
802.3)
Uses one Rx single-mode fiber and
one Tx single-mode fiber to transmit
data at 10 Gbit/s over a distance within
80 km.
QSFP+ 40GE 40Gbase-SR4 (IEEE
802.3ba)
Uses one Rx multimode fiber and one
Tx multimode fiber to transmit data at
40 Gbit/s over a distance within 150
m.
40Gbase-LR4 (IEEE
802.3ba)
