Whitepaper: DACs, AOCs, Transceivers and When to Use Them

High-bandwidth signals in networking can pose several installation challenges.  The balance between distance, cost, and bandwidth needs to be carefully weighed in order to ensure a stable, high performance, yet affordable system.  In a world that has moved beyond 1000baseT (or 1G) to an increasingly more common 10G, 40G, and 100G requirement, the multitude of options for transmitting these signals can seem a little confusing. 

This whitepaper discusses a few common methods for connecting networking and network-based AV gear, as well as highlights the advantages and best-use pattern for each.
