Optical module input signal
There have been multiple variants of the electrical interface of optical modules that have been used over the years. Subsequently, the driver semiconductor laser (LD) or light-emitting diode (LED) emits modulated optical signals at the corresponding rate. The optical module, known as Optical Transceiver in English, is a general term for various module categories, including optical receiver modules, optical transmitter modules, optical transceiver modules, and optical forwarding modules. The optical module serves as a crucial component in optical fiber communication systems, operating at the physical layer, which is the lowest layer in the OSI model.
