Products and Services Offered
Apac Opto Electronics Inc. offers an extensive catalogue of products that are critical to modern digital communication and connectivity. These offerings can be categorized as follows:
1. Optical Transceiver Modules and Components
This category forms the backbone of the company's offering, covering a wide range of industry-standard form factors and protocols used for converting electrical signals to optical signals and vice-versa, enabling data transmission over fiber optic cables.
- Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Family: This includes standard SFP, SFP+, and higher-speed variants like 10G XFP transceivers, which are essential for Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications.
- Legacy and Specialized Transceivers: The company manufactures 1x9, 2x5, and GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) transceivers for various data and telecommunications needs.
- Passive Optical Network (PON) Modules: Offerings include GEPON (Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network) and GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) transceivers, such as G-PON ONU (Optical Network Unit) modules that support different transmission classes (e.g., Class B+/C+) for fiber-to-the-home/building (FTTx) deployments. These modules typically operate with bi-directional transmission over a single fiber, using wavelengths like TX-1310/RX-1490nm.
- Bi-Directional (BiDi) Transceivers: A significant portion of the portfolio includes Bi-Directional transceivers in various form factors (1x9, 2x5, SFP, GBIC, XFP), which use a single fiber strand for both transmission and reception, maximizing fiber utilization. Examples include the TX-1330nm/RX-1270nm Single Fiber Bi-direction XFP Transceiver for 10GBASE-BX Ethernet over distances up to 20km.
- Wireless Infrastructure Modules: Products support standards for wireless base station connectivity, such as OBSAI (Open Base Station Architecture Initiative) and CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) protocols, with data rates up to 7.3728 Gbps using Single-mode SFP+ transceivers.
2. Optical Extenders and Media Converters
The company provides solutions designed to extend the reach of digital signals over fiber optic cables, a critical requirement for video distribution and professional AV applications.
- Video and Display Extenders: This includes a range of optical extenders for signals like HDMI, DVI, 3G SDI, DisplayPort, and USB 3.0. For instance, the DVI Extender via Duplex LC Fiber can achieve transmission up to 1500m on single-mode fiber. These products are vital for applications requiring long-distance, high-definition video transmission, such as data storage, medical imaging, and professional A/V.
- Copper Transceiver Modules: Alongside fiber solutions, the company also manufactures copper transceiver modules for shorter-distance, Ethernet-based connectivity.
3. Sub-Module and Assembly
Apac Opto Electronics also offers Optical Sub-Module Assembly, which are component-level offerings for other manufacturers who integrate them into their own finished products.
4. Ethernet Products
A range of dedicated Ethernet products are supplied to support network connectivity requirements.
5. Smart Building Control System Modules
The company also manufacturers modules for smart building control systems, demonstrating a wider reach into modern infrastructure management and IoT-related electronic components.
