Optical Transceivers in Telecom Networks
An optical transceiver is a compact, hot-pluggable device that enables bidirectional data transmission over fiber optic cables. It’s the critical bridge between the electrical signals in network equipment (like switches, routers, and base stations) and the optical signals used in fiber networks. In telecom, they are key to delivering high-speed, long-distance communications.
