– Hot-swappable: Can be plugged and unplugged during device operation, facilitating network maintenance and upgrades. The design of the PCB mainboard for photonic modules must meet special requirements such as high-speed transmission, heat dissipation, PCBA assembly, and hot-plugging, setting it apart from ordinary PCBs. Figure 1 SFP Optical Module Installation Diagram After installing the optical module, insert the corresponding fiber jumper. An optical module is a typically hot-pluggable optical transceiver used in high-bandwidth data communications applications. Optical modules typically have an electrical interface on the side that connects to the inside of the system and an optical interface on the side that connects to the outside. It is not recommended to directly plug and unplug. Because this operation will damage the output pigtail and cause the output power to drop. The optical fiber receiver interface.
