Abstract
An optical module includes first circuitry configured to receive data transmitted from a host over an electrical communication link at a first data rate, the data transmitted from the host being either one of PCIe data and CXL data and change a data rate for transmission of data from the optical module, the data transmitted from the optical module being transmitted at a second data rate different from the first data rate. Second circuitry is configured to convert the data transmitted from the host at the first data rate from an electrical format to an optical format for transmission from the optical module at the second data rate and convert data received from an optical receiver at the second data rate from the optical format to the electrical format for transmission from the optical module to the host at the first data rate via the first circuitry.
