Introduction to Optical Modules

An optical module is a photoelectric device used for optical-electrical and electro-optical conversion. The transmitter of the optical module converts electrical signals into optical signals, while the receiver converts optical signals back into electrical signals.

 

Optical modules are classified based on their packaging types, with common ones including SFP, SFP+, SFF, and Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC).

 

An optical module consists of optoelectronic components, functional circuits, and optical interfaces. The optoelectronic components include both transmitting and receiving sections. Simply put, the function of an optical module is to convert electrical signals into optical signals for transmission through optical fiber, and then reconvert optical signals into electrical signals at the receiving end.

 

UL certification for Optical Modules

Since optical modules involve optoelectronic conversion, they must comply with UL 62368-1 certification when exported to the U.S. Below is an overview of the testing requirements, required documentation, and certification process for UL 62368 certification of optical modules.

 

UL 62368-1 Testing Items for Optical Modules

1. Input/Output Testing

2. Leakage Current from Enclosure Measurement

3. Risk of Electric Shock (Touch Current)

4. Normal & Abnormal Temperature Tests

5. Abnormal Testing (Class P) – Fault Condition Tests for Electronic Ballasts (Class P)

6. Dielectric Voltage Withstand Test

7. Drop Test

8. Strain Relief Test

9. Mold Stress Test

10. Humidity Test

 

Required Documentation

The following documents must be prepared for certification:

1. Product application form

2. Product manual

3. Circuit schematic diagram

4. PCB layout diagram

5. Bill of Materials (BOM)

6. Product structural dimension drawings

7. FDA CDRH report

 

Certification Process and Steps

1. Fill out the application form.

2. Initiate the quotation process.

3. Confirm the quotation and sign the contract.

4. Make payment, initiate the case, and sign the agreement with the testing laboratory.

5. Provide samples and required documentation.

6. Start testing and collaborate on product documentation.

7. Certification completion and issuance of the certificate.
