Tro and LRO optical modules

Tro and LRO optical modules

Linear Receive Optics (LRO) are optical transceivers that use retimers at the transmit side and linear receivers on the receive side. Other names for the same approach are Transmit Retimed Optics (TRO) or Retimed Transmit Linear Receive (RTLR) optics. Silicon photonics (SiPh) offers a high degree of integration and cost-effectiveness, helping to enhance optical module performance while driving down costs. Coherent technology facilitates long-distance, high-speed transmission with exceptional signal quality. In response, several solutions such as Linear Receive Optics (LRO), Linear Pluggable Optics (LPO) and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) have been proposed. 1 shows the typical block diagram of a pluggable transceiver consisting of on-board lasers, optics, a Photonics die housing the modulator.
