What is an LRO optical module

Home / What is an LRO optical module

LRO (Linear Receive Optics) is essentially a half-retimed optical module architecture. Traditional high-speed optical modules typically deploy DSPs on both the transmit and receive sides to perform full digital recovery across the entire link. This allows the module to reduce power consumption while still retaining some retiming capability. DSP（Digital Signal Processing） refers to a chipset-based technique that converts analog optical signals into digital data, enabling advanced modulation, dispersion compensation, and error correction.
