What Are Optical Transceivers?
Optical transceivers are critical components in modern networking, enabling devices to send and receive data over fiber optic and copper cables. These hot-swappable modules convert electrical signals into optical signals for high-speed transmission.
At Edgeium, we manufacture and code our transceivers to match OEM specifications, ensuring seamless operation across a wide range of networking hardware. Our transceivers comply with MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards, ensuring plug-and-play compatibility with switches, routers, and servers.
