Transceiveri optici dividi possunt in 3 categorias secundum technologias: PDH, SPDH, SDH, HD-CVI.

optica transceiver PDH;

PDH (Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchia, series digitalis quasi-synchrona) transceiver opticus est parva capacitas transceptiva optica, quae plerumque in paria adhibetur, etiam punctum applicationum ad punctum vocatur.

Transceiver optical SDH:

SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchia, series digitalis synchrona) transceiver opticus magnam facultatem habet, vulgo 16E1 ad 4032E1.

SPDH transceiver opticus;

SPDH (Synchronae Plesiochronae Hierarchiae Digitalis) transceiveri optici, inter PDH et SDH. SPDH systema transmissionis PDH cum notis SDH (Synchronae Digital Series) (in principio rate temperatio PDH innititur, et simul utens parte technologiae technologiae in SDH quantum fieri potest).

Genus interface:

Transceiveri optici secundum interfaciem collocantur: transceiveri optici videi, transceiveri optici, transceiveri optici, HD-SDI transceiveri optici, VGA transceiveri optici, DVI transceiveri optici, HDMI transceiveri optici, data transceiver optica, telephonica transceiver optica, transceiver Aer optica, transiens transceiver opticum .
