Abstract

An enhanced small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) transceiver module and an SFP+ host port are provided. The enhanced SFP+ transceiver module receives a reception data signal at a data rate of 40 gigabits per second (40G). The reception data signal is sent to a transceiver bidirectional transmission unit. The transceiver bidirectional transmission unit comprises a first SFP+ connector unit configured to interface with a second SFP+ connector unit of an SFP+ host port. The reception data signal is sent from the transceiver bidirectional transmission unit to the second SFP+ connector unit of the SFP+ host port via the first SFP+ connector unit.
