, 40km, 80km) are designed with high transmit power to compensate for signal loss over distance. For instance, a 40km single-mode module may emit up to +2dBm. However, the receiver's maximum overload threshold is typically much lower, around -3dBm. The transmitted optical power of long-distance optical modules (such as 40km/80km/120km specifications) is generally higher than that of short-haul modules, typically reaching +2dBm to +5dBm. When such modules are directly connected to short-haul optical fibers (such as links under 10km), the. Long-haul optical modules (e. The value of the Saturation Power is usually -3dBm. When the Received Optical Power is greater than the Saturation. In modern optical transport networks, 100G optical modules with a transmission distance of 40km have emerged as a core technology to meet the needs of carriers' backbone networks, large enterprises, and cloud service providers.
