An optical module is mainly composed of optoelectronic devices (including the optical transmitter and optical receiver), functional circuitry, and optical interfaces. They are used in fiber optic communication systems to transmit data over long distances with minimal loss and interference. These modules typically consist of a transmitter, which converts electrical signals into a light signal, and a receiver, which converts. In the era of 5G, AI, and high-speed data centers, optical modules serve as the core bridge for converting electrical signals to optical signals (and vice versa), enabling fast, reliable data transmission across networks. Among various optical module form factors, SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable).
