Transponder Vs QSFP-DD

Transponders 
are multifunctional devices used primarily in long-haul and WDM systems for signal conversion, 
wavelength conversion, and signal regeneration. They are essential for maintaining signal integrity over 
long distances and integrating different parts of a network.


QSFP-DD modules are high-density, 
high-bandwidth transceivers used mainly in data centers and high-performance computing environments. 
They offer a compact, plug-and-play solution for achieving high data rates and increased port density.
