Optical module optical power saturation

Home / Optical module optical power saturation

The maximum receivable power is called the Overload Optical Power, also called the Saturation Power, which means max optical power detected by the receiving end of the optical module. Average optical power refers to the optical power outputted by the optical module's transmitter under normal working conditions, which can be understood as the intensity of light. It represents the intensity of the optical signal when it leaves the transmitting end.
