Home / Is the optical port connected to a fiber optic cable or an optical module

Currently, mainstream optical modules include SFP and QSFP form factors, with transmission rates ranging from 2M to 100G. Optical modules and fiber optic transceivers are both important devices in fiber optic communication systems, is there any difference between them? How to choose? This article will introduce the difference between the two and the precautions to be taken when connecting. Fiber optic connectors connect optical fibers and can be connected and disconnected faster than splicing. The principle is that the light enters the light-sparse medium from the light-dense medium, resulting in total reflection.
