Optical module and passive systems vendor Champion ONE now says it has added optical transceivers that support Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI) protocols to its Passport line.

CPRI is a common protocol for support of communication between wireless cell towers and base stations as well as related mobile front-haul applications.

The new CPRI transceiver line includes a variety of form factors (including SFP and SFP+) for dual-fiber, CWDM, and DWDM applications, this last including tunable. Supported reaches range from 10 km to 80 km. All of the optical modules conform to their respective MSAs and come with a 5-year warranty.

"As a leading supplier to top telecom service operators, Champion ONE has encountered strong demand for mobile front-haul solutions driven by small cell distributed antenna deployments and next generation upgrades to service growing smartphone bandwidth usage," explains John Jutila, CEO of Champion ONE. "The market for front-haul optical transceivers already exceeds $500 million annually, according to Lightcounting, and our new CPRI product offering directly addresses this growth segment while helping our customers continue to expand their infrastructure."
