Optical modules, also known as optical transceivers, are essential components that convert electrical signals to optical signals and vice versa. They form the backbone of long-distance, high-capacity data transport in modern telecom networks. Deployed across fronthaul, midhaul, and backhaul. An Active Optical Network (AON) is a point-to-point network architecture where individual dedicated fibers connect directly from a central hub (like an ISP's central office) to each end-user. Ethernet layer: business as usual. 400GE or 4x100GE breakout Optical channel:.
