An optical module, also called fiber optic transceiver or optical transceiver, is a typically hot-pluggable device used in high-bandwidth data communications applications. Transceiver modules typically have an electrical interface on the side that connects to the inside of the system and an optical interface on the other side that connects to the various devices through a fiber optic cable.
An optical module functions as a photoelectric converter which converts the electrical signal into light and vice versa. There are multiple transceiver module types available that can be used in telecommunications applications. The different specs and designs are widely used to meet the changing needs of designers.
Optical transceivers come in various packages based on form factor and application. Common types include:
SFP/SFP+/SFP-DD: Compact, hot-pluggable modules for up to 10Gbps, widely used in Ethernet and Fibre Channel.
QSFP/QSFP+/QSFP28/QSFP-DD: Quad small form-factor pluggable modules supporting up to 100Gbps, ideal for high-density networks.
CFP/CFP2/CFP4: Larger form factors for 40Gbps to 400Gbps applications, used in telecom and data centers.
OSFP: Designed for 400Gbps, with advanced thermal management for high-speed, next-gen applications.
XFP: 10Gbps modules, larger than SFP+, suited for telecom and data transmission.
