Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques and an apparatus for partitioning calibration data into line card and pluggable properties and processing the partitioned data using a processor of the line card. For example, calibration information corresponding to components in the pluggable module may be stored on the pluggable module and transferred from the pluggable optical module to the processor on the line card. The processor may combine the calibration information received from the optical module with calibration information corresponding to properties on the line card to obtain system calibration information. The system calibration information may be used to configure one or more components used to process electric signals sent to or received from the optical module.
