Are optical modules microelectronic components
As an essential component of optical fiber communication, optical modules are optoelectronic devices that facilitate the conversion between optical and electrical signals during the transmission process. An optical module is a typically hot-pluggable optical transceiver used in high-bandwidth data communications applications. That is, metal medium communication represented by coaxial cables and network cables is gradually being replaced by optical fiber media. Optoelectronic interconnects with its many advantages over electrical connections suffer from its high cost of implementation due to problems associated with optical packaging, especially the coupling of optical components to the outside world.
