QuickTransceiver

IEEE/MSA optical transceiver standards from 10G–800G in your pocket. Power budget calc, compatibility check, breakout reference, wavelength map. Fully offline on iPhone.

Transceiver Quick Ref is a practical reference app that puts IEEE/MSA-compliant optical transceiver standards on your iPhone — ready the moment you need them.

Data centers, carrier networks, enterprise links. Whether you are in front of a rack, in a design meeting, or preparing a proposal, you can pull up accurate standards data based on IEEE 802.3 and the major MSAs (100G Lambda, 400G BiDi, QSFP-DD, OSFP and more) in seconds.

■ What's inside

● Comprehensive standards database 10G / 40G / 100G / 400G / 800G, organized by category. Wavelength, fiber type, reach, TX/RX optical power, FEC requirements, connector, breakout support — every spec you need, on a single screen.

● Power-budget calculator Plug in TX/RX power, fiber length, loss coefficient, splice count and loss, connector count and loss, and any additional loss. The app computes total loss, power budget, margin and link viability — and flags potential overload scenarios.

● Standards selection wizard Speed, distance, fiber. Three steps, a shortlist of standards that fit. Ideal for kickoff of site surveys and design reviews.

● Compatibility checker Pick two standards; the app instantly evaluates wavelength, fiber type and speed alignment, surfacing the reason for the verdict and highlighting any conditional compatibility.

● Breakout configuration reference Trace 4×10G / 4×25G / 4×100G / 4×200G configurations from the parent standard down to the per-lane standard, reach, fiber and connector.

● Wavelength map See how standards spread across the 850 nm / 1310 nm / CWDM / C-band regions — perfect for planning by wavelength.

● Unit converter dBm ↔ mW, wavelength ↔ frequency, distance × loss coefficient fiber-loss calculation. All the day-to-day conversions in one place.

● Connector & cable guide LC, MPO and the rest, listed with fiber count, ferrule size, polarity and supported standards.

● Custom spec entry Supports vendor-specific naming (for example 400G-DR4+). Type in whatever notation you actually see in the field, and reuse those entries in compatibility checks and comparisons.

● Side-by-side comparison Line up multiple standards and compare specifications, optical characteristics and power specs at a glance.

● Glossary Common optical-networking terms organized by category — useful for study and exam prep as well as quick reference.

● Favorites, notes & recently viewed Star the standards you use the most, keep personal notes on them, and jump back to the ones you recently opened straight from the home screen.

● Bilingual interface Toggle between English and Japanese at any time from the header badge.

■ Who it's for

• Network engineers running optical design and operations in DC, carrier or enterprise environments
• Sales / pre-sales engineers at optical-networking vendors
• Field engineers handling installation, migration and troubleshooting
• Students and researchers studying optical networking
• Candidates preparing for network certifications

■ Design philosophy

Built to never block you in the field. Every piece of data and every tool runs locally on the device, so it works in front of a rack with spotty signal, on a plane, or deep inside a facility.

Note: This app presents information based on publicly available IEEE 802.3 and MSA specifications. Always verify against the official vendor data sheets and specifications of the equipment you actually deploy. Note: iPhone-only app.
