Optical Transceiver Manufacturer
HENGXANG supplies optical transceivers from its Yiwu, Zhejiang operation - SFP, SFP+, SFP28, QSFP+ and QSFP28 modules from 1G to 100G, reaching 100 m to 40 km over multimode and single-mode fiber. Modules code to your switch brand, support DDM diagnostics, and test 100% on real platforms before packing.
The transceiver shelf completes the line this factory has built since December 2000 - an optical transceiver manufacturer that grew out of a fiber plant: our own cable, patch cords and splitters feed the links, and these modules light the ports. One supplier codes the modules to your switches and tests the whole chain together.
This page from an optical transceiver manufacturer lists the module families with MOQ and lead time, the type-selection guide, quality numbers, OEM capability, certifications and factory facts - then the questions buyers ask first. Send your switch models and the export desk replies with a written quote within 24 hours on business days.

- SFP+ SR 300 m multimode: data center row-to-row patching over OM3/OM4.
- QSFP+ 40G PSM: four-lane 40G runs over parallel single-mode fiber.
- SC/APC FTTH SFP: OLT-side modules for FTTH cabinets and closures.
- Industrial SFP+ 40 km: street cabinets and uncooled plants at -40 to +85 degrees C.
These five cover most purchase orders. Coding, wavelength and reach are set per order - the working catalog of this optical transceiver manufacturer - the grid above lists the current families, and custom coding runs to your switch list.
Form Factor Decoder: SFP, SFP+, SFP28, QSFP+ and QSFP28
The naming reads like alphabet soup until someone lines it up. The decoder:
| Form factor | Speed class | Ports per rack unit | Typical homes |
|---|---|---|---|
| SFP | 1G (up to 2.5G) | 24-48 | FTTH OLTs, access switches |
| SFP+ | 10G | 24-48 | Standard 10G rows |
| SFP28 | 25G | 24-48 | Server-facing 25G rows |
| QSFP+ | 40G (4x10G lanes) | 6-12 | Spine uplinks, 40G runs |
| QSFP28 | 100G (4x25G lanes) | 6-12 | Spine and leaf uplinks |
The S in every name stands for small form factor - each generation shrinks the bits. Breakout cables (QSFP+ to 4x SFP+) run between the generations, and we build the cord side of those breakouts on the same shelf.
Compatibility: The Question Every Buyer Asks First
A transceiver either initializes on your switch or it does not - so coding decides everything. Three facts about how this optical transceiver manufacturer handles it:
- Coding to order: state the switch brand and model, and the module EEPROM codes to that platform - recognized on first plug, no vendor-lock messages.
- Platform testing: modules initialize and pass traffic on real switches before packing, and not just on lab benches.
- Mixed fleets: one order codes modules across different switch brands - common for networks that grew by acquisition.
Compatibility problems disappear when coding and testing happen at the factory - the working promise of this optical transceiver manufacturer. That is the practical difference between an optical transceiver manufacturer and a trader reselling sealed bags.
Type Selection Guide: Reach, Fiber and Wavelength
Module naming looks dense until someone decodes it. The selection table covers the common builds:
| Type | Fiber | Wavelength | Reach |
|---|---|---|---|
| SFP SR / SFP+ SR | OM3 / OM4 multimode | 850 nm | 300 m class |
| SFP+ LR | G.652D single-mode | 1310 nm | 10 km |
| SFP+ ER | G.652D single-mode | 1550 nm | 40 km |
| SFP28 SR / LR | OM4 / single-mode | 850 / 1310 nm | 100 m / 10 km |
| QSFP+ PSM | Parallel single-mode, MPO | 1310 nm | 2 km class |
| QSFP28 SR4 | OM4 multimode, MPO-12 | 850 nm | 100 m |
Short runs with strong transmitters pair with attenuators; runs through our own cable and land on our patch cords - the whole link tests as one chain. Send the distances and switch models, and the quote states the type per link.
Quality Numbers: What We Test and What You Read
Modules from this optical transceiver manufacturer are measured components. The bench runs five checks on every piece:
- Link initialization on the coded switch platform - the port recognizes the module and trains.
- Eye-pattern and bit-error test at full rate - the transmit signal quality reads clean at the margin.
- DDM verification: temperature, voltage, TX and RX power read against reference windows.
- Temperature screening: sampled units run the operating band - commercial 0 to +70 degrees C, industrial -40 to +85 degrees C.
- Serial traceability: every module carries a serial that maps to its test record.
Spec numbers (draft - per-type datasheets carry the binding windows): TX power windows per IEEE module class, RX sensitivity to the class standard, and power consumption within the MSA profile. The datasheet set joins every quote.
DDM: The Health Report Inside Every Module
Digital diagnostics monitoring turns a transceiver into a sensor. Four values report live from every DDM-capable module:
- Temperature: the module runs hot before the link fails - DDM flags it early.
- Supply voltage: a drifting supply shows up here before ports reset.
- TX power: the laser aging shows as TX drift - the leading warranty indicator.
- RX power: fading fiber or dirty connectors show as RX drop, port by port.
Network teams script alerts on those four values. Because our modules report DDM accurately against reference windows, the alerts mean something - a monitoring system is only as honest as the modules it reads.
Handling: Transceivers Are ESD Devices in a Dusty World
Most DOA modules died on a desk, not on a line. The handling rules that keep modules alive from bag to port:
- Stay grounded: modules ship in ESD bags for a reason - open them at a grounded bench, not on carpet.
- Caps stay on: the ferrule end collects dust in seconds; caps come off only when the module enters the port or meets a cleaned patch cord.
- Clean before mating: one-click cleaners on both the module ferrule and the cord end - the cheapest fix for the most common fault.
- Label on receipt: stick the switch-and-port label on the bag at receiving, so coding never gets guessed at install time.
These four habits appear on the instruction card in every box, and they are the difference between a 0.1% field failure rate and a support ticket queue.
OEM, ODM and Private-Label Capability
As an OEM optical transceiver manufacturer, we build to your coding, label and packaging spec:
- OEM: private-label labels and bags, coding to your platform list - free label proofing above 500 pieces.
- ODM: custom reach and coding combinations for project-specific links, samples in 10-15 days after spec approval (draft).
- OBM / JDM: exclusive part codes and stocking programs for distributors under NDA.
OEM projects we shipped (draft references - replace with your approved cases)
- Regional ISP, 2024: 5,000 SFP+ LR modules coded across two switch brands for a metro ring, phased quarterly.
- Data center integrator, 2023: 1,200 QSFP+ 40G PSM pairs with patch cords from our own line, tested as chained links.
- FTTH operator, 2025: 8,000 SC/APC OLT-side SFP units for cabinet rollouts, DDM verified per unit.
“Every module initialized on the first plug across three switch generations. The DDM readings matched our monitoring within 1 dB.” - network operations lead, regional ISP (draft testimonial - replace with your approved reference).
“They tested our exact switch models before shipping. Acceptance took an afternoon instead of a week.” - infrastructure manager, data center integrator (draft testimonial - replace with your approved reference).
Modules pair with everything that feeds them: patch cords, adapters, attenuators for hot Rx ports, and the cable that carries the link.
FTTH Note: The SC/APC Module at the OLT Shelf
FTTH networks terminate OLT ports on SC/APC connectors, and standard LC modules do not fit that plant. The Rx-A2 class FTTH SFP on this shelf carries the SC/APC port directly:
- APC polish: green port, 8-degree finish, matches the APC adapters and splitters downstream.
- DDM on board: the OLT reads RX power per subscriber tree - the fastest way to find a dirty drop.
- Fit: standard SFP footprint, so existing OLT shelves take the module without adapters.
FTTH crews order these with the splitters and APC adapters for the same cabinets, so the whole shelf builds from one purchase order.
Wholesale Program for Distributors and Integrators
Transceiver demand arrives in refresh cycles, and this optical transceiver manufacturer prices for that rhythm: The wholesale program at this optical transceiver manufacturer matches that rhythm:
- Tier pricing: steps at 500, 2,000 and 5,000 pieces per cycle; mixed types count toward the tier.
- Coding library: your switch list stays on file - repeat orders code automatically.
- Project phasing: frame agreements phase shipments against deployment calendars.
- Label program: private-label bags and box codes under your brand.
- Tender pack: CE reports, RoHS statements and test templates refreshed per cycle.
Distributors start with a coded sample pack for their top switch models and scale to frame terms once the returns data proves itself.
Certifications and Compliance
The factory runs under ISO 9001:2015, with CE reports covering the module families sold into the EU, and the company holds a utility patent on a fiber optic quick connector - the in-house R&D behind our passive lines. Documents are public on the certificate page.
| Certificate | Relevance to transceivers |
|---|---|
| ISO 9001:2015 | Quality management for assembly, coding and testing |
| OHSAS 18001:2007 | Occupational health and safety management |
| CE reports | Module families shipped into the EU |
| RoHS statements | Compliant materials on request, per batch |
Module designs follow the industry MSA profiles for each form factor - SFF-8472 for SFP DDM, and the QSFP+ / QSFP28 MSA specifications for pinout and power class.
Factory Strength: One Bench Codes, Tests and Ships
Transceivers assemble and test in the Yiwu compound beside our cable, cord and passive lines - 25 years under founder LING LI, since December 2000:
- Coding and test: real switch platforms from the major brands run initialization and traffic on every module.
- Quality: Grace Xu, Quality Director, releases batches against DDM and bit-error records.
- R&D: Zhou Liubo, Director of R&D and quick-connector patent holder, owns the coding library and custom reach builds.
- Export: Peter Lin, Head of Export Sales - one contact from RFQ to B/L. Video audits run any business day - see the factory gallery.

Industrial Grade: When the Cabinet Has No Air Conditioning
Street cabinets, tower bases and factory floors see -40 to +85 degrees C. Commercial modules drift out of spec in that band; industrial-grade modules hold it:
- Rated band: -40 to +85 degrees C, verified across the band on sampled units (draft - datasheets state the protocol).
- Build difference: temperature-hardened lasers and drivers, not just a label.
- Common homes: street cabinets, tower-base FTTA runs, factory floors, uncooled remote huts.
Industrial builds cost a step more and save the truck roll - the trade a fiber optic transceiver manufacturer should be honest about on the quote.
Why Buyers Pick HENGXANG Over Other Suppliers
Transceiver quotes look alike until a module fails to initialize. Compare on the points that decide it:
| Factor | HENGXANG | Typical trading company |
|---|---|---|
| Coding | Coded to order per switch model, list on file | Generic coding, port errors |
| Testing | 100% on real platforms, serial per module | Bench samples only |
| MOQ | 50-200 pcs by family; trial packs welcome | Large minimums per type |
| Quote speed | Within 24 hours on business days | Days |
| Chain | Modules + cords + cable tested as one link | Single category |
And one habit worth naming: if a cheaper module type meets your distance, we quote the cheaper type. Over-specifying reach wastes your budget and stresses the receiver - and that argument loses re-orders.
Mixed Fleets: One Order, Five Switch Brands
Networks that grew by acquisition run mixed switch fleets, and mixed fleets need mixed coding. The workflow is simple: send the switch list per site, and the quote codes each module line to its platform - Cisco-coded for the core, HPE-coded for the edge, all in one shipment with labels that state the platform per bag. Acceptance teams test one module per coding group instead of one per piece.

Worked Example: A 1,500-Module Data Center Refresh
Illustrative figures - your quote states yours. A data center refreshes top-of-rack optics: 1,200 SFP+ SR 300 m, 200 QSFP+ 40G SR4, 100 SFP+ LR for the uplinks:
| Step | Detail |
|---|---|
| Day 0 | Switch list received; coding confirmed and quote issued next morning |
| Day 1-3 | Coded samples airfreighted - tested on the buyer's own switches |
| Day 4-9 | Production: assembly, coding, 100% platform test on all 1,500 modules |
| Day 9-10 | Serial-labeled bags, test file exported to the buyer's template |
| Day 11 | Carton pack: 30 cartons, ~4 cbm; trucked to Ningbo, FOB |
| Day 12 | B/L and test file issued 2 days after sailing |
Twelve days from switch list to sealed cartons - and every module initializes on arrival, because the coding and the test happened where the modules were built. That is what ordering from an optical transceiver manufacturer with its own bench delivers.
Plan the Upgrade Path: 1G Today, 100G Tomorrow
Transceivers are the fastest-obsoleted part of the plant - and the easiest to plan around. Three habits keep refresh cycles cheap:
- Buy the port density once: switches outlive several module generations, so size the shelf for the 25G or 100G end state and start with the modules the traffic needs today.
- Keep the fiber neutral: OM4 and OS2 cable runs support every future module class - multimode OM3 limits the 25G+ roadmap.
- Standardize the coding list: one coding file per switch model makes every future re-order a two-line email.
The upgrade conversation costs nothing and starts at the quote - send today's traffic and the three-year plan, and the quote prices both phases.
Light the Ports, Then Run the Whole Shelf
Modules light the ports, and this optical transceiver manufacturer ships everything the light touches: the patch cords at the panel, the adapters in the frame, the cable on the route, the splitters at the split points, the termination boxes and splice closures in the field, and the ODFs that anchor the exchange. Hot receivers trim with attenuators; FTTH drops terminate with the SC/APC modules on this shelf. One purchase order, one freight plan, one warranty conversation.
Worked Example: Stocking an FTTH OLT Cabinet
Illustrative figures - your quote states yours. An operator stocks a new OLT cabinet for 512 subscribers:
| Step | Detail |
|---|---|
| Day 0 | OLT model and port count received; SC/APC module coding confirmed |
| Day 1-3 | Coded samples airfreighted; bench-tested on the same OLT model |
| Day 4-8 | Production: 512 modules assembled, coded and 100% tested |
| Day 9 | Pack: 26 cartons of 20, each bag labeled with port group |
| Day 10 | Trucked to Ningbo, FOB; DDM and coding file issued 2 days after sailing |
Ten days from model list to a stocked cabinet - and every port reads DDM the day the subscribers connect.
Beyond Gray Modules: CWDM, DWDM and Direct-Attach Options
Standard "gray" modules cover one wavelength per link. When fiber strands run short or racks sit close, three alternatives save the build:
- CWDM colored modules: eight wavelengths (1470-1610 nm) share one fiber pair through passive CWDM muxes - 8 links on 2 fibers. Pairs with our splitters and ODF shelf.
- DWDM colored modules: denser 100 GHz spacing for longer hauls and carrier networks.
- DAC twinax and AOC cables: for runs under 7 m, a factory-attached cable beats two modules and a cord - lower power, lower cost, no coding. We build the cord side and code the ends to order.
Mixed racks use all three: DAC inside the row, gray modules between rows, colored modules between buildings. Send the link map and the quote prices every link by its cheapest working type.
Regional Notes: Coding and Standards by Market
Twenty-five years of export taught this optical transceiver manufacturer how coding and standards vary by market:
- Europe: multi-vendor coding and RoHS paperwork lead the spec list; data center orders run SR/LR mixes.
- Middle East: APC-heavy FTTH plants order OLT-side SC/APC modules; industrial grades serve outdoor cabinets.
- Asia-Pacific: GPON SFP volumes and 25G server-facing rows lead; coding lists run long across mixed fleets.
- Americas: 10G and 25G refreshes dominate; domestic-compatible coding requirements arrive in the RFQ.
Tell us the country and the switch fleet. We answer with the coding set that already ships there.
Quick Answers: Colors, Mixing and the Shelf
Two questions arrive weekly and get answered here before the FAQ. First, colors: SR multimode modules carry black or beige bails, LR single-mode UPC carries blue, ER carries yellow tint, and APC single-mode is green - color is the quick check, and the bag label is the record. Second, mixing: coded modules from different sources initialize identically on a coded port, and mixed fleets are the normal state of any network that grew - keep DDM monitoring on, because it reads every port the same way and flags any module, from any source, that drifts. Both answers ship printed in the box with every order - a fiber optic transceiver manufacturer that answers pre-sale questions in writing answers warranty questions the same way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will your transceivers work with my switch brand?
Yes. Modules are coded to the switch brand you run - Cisco, HPE, Huawei, Juniper and others - and we test them on the matching platform before packing. Send the switch model with the RFQ and the quote states the coding, so the port recognizes the module on first plug.
What is your MOQ for optical transceiver orders?
SFP and SFP+ modules start at 100 pieces per type, QSFP+ and QSFP28 at 50 pieces, and FTTH SFP units at 200 pieces. Trial packs for compatibility testing ship in sample quantities. Data center projects usually order in 500 to 2,000-piece cycles.
How fast can you deliver transceiver orders?
Standard SFP, SFP+ and QSFP types ship in 5-10 days after deposit; FTTH SFP units in 6-9 days. Every module passes 100% testing on real switch platforms before packing - the lead time includes that test bench, not just assembly. That is the bench discipline of this optical transceiver manufacturer.
What is DDM and do your modules support it?
DDM (digital diagnostics monitoring, also called DOM) reports live temperature, supply voltage, TX power and RX power to the switch. All our SFP, SFP+ and QSFP modules support DDM, so your monitoring system reads real-time health from every port.
How do I choose SR, LR or ER modules?
Match the module reach to the fiber run: SR types cover 100-300 m over multimode, LR types cover 10 km over single-mode, and ER types stretch to 40 km. Over-specifying reach wastes budget and can overload a short link - pair ER modules with an attenuator when the run is short. Send the distances and we quote the right type.
What testing do the modules pass before shipping?
Each module reads on real switches for link initialization, then runs an eye-pattern and bit-error test at full rate. DDM readings verify against reference values, and temperature screening covers the operating band on sampled units. The test log ships with the order in your template.
Do you offer industrial-temperature modules?
Yes. Industrial-grade SFP+ modules carry the -40 to +85 degrees C rating for outdoor cabinets and uncooled plants, and they hold spec across the full band. They are the standard choice for street cabinets, tower bases and uncooled remote sites.
What warranty covers the modules?
Industry colors follow the fiber: SR multimode modules carry black or beige bails, LR single-mode UPC carries blue, and ER single-mode carries yellow-tinted bails. APC single-mode is green. The coding label on the bag states the full type either way - color is the quick check, the label is the record.
Can I mix our original vendor modules with yours in one switch?
Yes. Coded modules initialize identically regardless of who assembled them, and mixing is common during refresh cycles. Keep DDM monitoring on - it reads every port the same way and flags any module, from any source, that drifts.
What warranty covers the modules?
Modules carry a replacement warranty against factory faults (term confirmed on the proforma - typically 1-3 years by type). Claims settle on DDM readings and bench re-tests - send the serial and the readings, and confirmed faults replace in the next shipment.
