It is the core component responsible for high-speed data electro-optical conversion in servers, acting as the “traffic hub” of the internal data center network. Why High Performance? AI and cloud computing have driven the need for 400G/800G interconnectivity, ensuring data flows without blockage. Figure 1 below is an internal schematic diagram of the Lenovo SR650 server, where no ports for direct optical module insertion are visible. Figure 1 Internal Schematic Diagram of Lenovo SR650 Server So how are optical modules used on servers to achieve fiber interconnection with switches? Here we. Huawei offers a comprehensive portfolio of pluggable StarryLink optical modules for data center networks, with various models providing flexible plug-and-play solutions tailored to diverse interface requirements. SFP optical module is a hot swappable optical module used for 1Gbps network connections. They are used in fiber optic communication systems to transmit data over long distances with minimal loss and interference.
