The operating temperature specifications of optical modules are categorized into commercial grade (0-70°C), extended grade (-20-85°C), and industrial grade (-40-85°C), but the most practical applications are the temperature ranges of commercial grade and industrial grade. The working temperature of the optical module has a greater impact on the use of optical modules, if the working temperature of the optical module is too high or too low, there will generally be a decline in optical power, low sensitivity, poor eye diagrams, in addition to accelerating the aging of. When the optical module is not in a defined operating temperature environment, this module may experience high latency and transmit data volumes below the rated rate. So that we usually consider temperature testing to be the most important part of the whole testing process. But in fact, different application environments need to choose optical modules with corresponding temperature levels.
