An optical transceiver, also known as a fiber optic transceivers, is an essential interconnect component that plays a pivotal role in transmitting and receiving data. This sophisticated device is comprised of two fundamental parts: a transmitter and a receiver. Utilizing fiber optic technology, it adeptly converts electrical signals into light signals, and vice versa, facilitating seamless data transmission.
