As 5G becomes the new worldwide mobile wireless network standard, service providers are rapidly reinforcing existing fiber infrastructure to meet new capacity needs. While the mainstream market calls for multiple 10G solutions to support a path to 100G, cost-savings with similar performance can be achieved by instead utilizing ProLabs' new 50G PAM4 transceiver solutions.
Our QSFP28 50G assortment includes ER1, LR1, and single-fiber bidirectional 10KM and 40KM bidirectional (bidi) options. These solutions utilize PAM4 modulation schemas to improve your mid-haul & access network data rates with reaches of up to 40km without deploying new fiber links.
