MSA compliant optical transceivers
Our range of compatible optical transceivers are built to 100% MSA compliant specifications. MSA stands for “Multi-Source Agreement”. Each MSA provides the ‘common’ or ‘internationally compatible’ specifications for systems manufacturers, system integrators and suppliers, so that they can build optical transceivers and the associated switch and router (or other device) ports that will interoperate with each other. Compliance to MSA standards is key to achieving uniformity and allows us to offer truly vendor equivalent optical transceiver solutions.
