A 100G optical module is a high-speed optical transceiver that is capable of transmitting data at a rate of 100 gigabits per second. With the widespread coverage of 5G and the popularization of high-speed data services, the application of 100G optical modules in core backbone networks and data center interconnections will grow significantly, especially in large-scale data. QSFP28 is the main form factor for 100G optical modules. It features low power consumption, high port density, compact size, and cost efficiency. This article reviews QSFP28 module types and key WDM technologies like CWDM and DWDM. It plays a fundamental role in converting electrical signals from networking equipment into optical signals—and vice. 100G industrial-grade optical modules play a crucial role in various industrial fields due to their high speed, high reliability, and strong environmental adaptability.
