With the development of the network, the mobile network has entered the optical fiber era, but the cat connected to the mobile network has also been upgraded to a mobile optical fiber cat. Optical cat, also known as single-port optical transceiver, is a product designed for special user environment. As the relay transmission equipment of local network, it is suitable for optical fiber terminal transmission equipment and base station dedicated line equipment. For multi-port optical transceiver, it is generally called optical transceiver, and for single-port optical transceiver, it is generally used at the user's end.
Optical cat is a kind of equipment similar to baseband modem, but different from baseband modem, it is connected with optical fiber line instead of optical signal. After the photoelectric signal and interface protocol are converted, it is connected to the router. It belongs to wide area network access, which is often called optical fiber access. As long as there is optical fiber, the optical cat needs to convert optical signals.
Precautions for using light cats:
First of all, the layout of each family room is different, so when installing, it is best to test the signal and try to install the light cat in the position with the best signal coverage. If conditions do not permit, only some repeaters or a router can be added. Secondly, optical cat active devices will generate heat when working. If installed in a sealed or stacked place, their signal transmission will be affected. Try to put the light cat in the central area of the house to avoid signal congestion or interference.
Then the light cat should stay away from the metal equipment at home, otherwise the signal will be greatly attenuated. Light cats can be placed high and there are no obstacles around them. Finally, most users will put the light cat in the weak box, but the shell of the weak box is metal, which will shield the signal, resulting in poor signal of the light cat. In addition, if the light cat turns on the routing state, the internet speed is slow or crashes, which is mainly caused by the low configuration of the light cat. It is recommended to install according to the actual situation.
