Backlight Module, the light source of TFT-LCD, is constructed by optical films, light guide plate, LED light bar, back-cover and plastic case. Because the liquid crystal molecule only function as the penetration level that doesn't illuminate spontaneously, it is necessary to add a backlight module. Without a backlight source, the liquid crystal display module would only present a pitch-black screen, and no matter how the internal liquid crystal molecules rotate, nothing would be visible from the outside. Backlight sources can be classified into two types according to their light emission:. A backlight module is a core component of an LCD, providing stable, high-brightness light for clear image display. It's the system that turns invisible light into the vivid images you see.

In multi-mode fiber, especially with 850nm optics (like SX modules), TX power typically ranges from -9 to -3 dBm, and RX can receive down to -17 dBm. These links are ideal for short distances up to 550 meters using OM3 or OM4 fiber. The TX (transmit) and RX (receive) power levels significantly affect everything from signal strength to transmission distances and the overall optical power. In optical communication systems, the transmit power and receive power of an optical transceiver are among the key indicators used to evaluate link quality and module operating status. They play an important role during new link deployment, compatibility testing, and link troubleshooting. We called the optical Tx power the signal level that leaves the optical equipment and the Tx power should be within the transmitter power range. What is RX/TX Optical Power Calculation?
