If you know the model or type of an optical module, you can view the section "Pluggable Modules for Interfaces" in the Hardware Description to look up parameters of the optical module, including the center wavelength, transmission distance, fiber types supported, receive optical.

On an optical network, a sender needs to convert electrical signals into optical signals before sending them to a receiver, and the receiver needs to convert received optical signals into electrical signals. An optical module is a component that completes electrical/optical conversion on an optical. What are the detailed parameters of the optical module? Optical module center wavelength, transmission distance, loss and dispersion, laser type, fiber interface, etc. Understanding their key parameters isn't just technical jargon – it's critical for ensuring compatibility, performance, and reliability in your data center. Encapsulation: Encapsulation of optical modules refers to a standard, also understood as the physical form of the optical module. The most common encapsulations for 100Mbps and 1Gbps optical modules are SFP.
