Can optical transceivers be plugged into optical modules

Pluggable optical transceivers are standalone modules that go into the switch or NIC and convert electrical to optical signals and vice versa. A separate optical cable is plugged into both transceivers. If you're dealing with data centers, telecommunications, or AI networking, grasping the key parameters of an optical. Pluggable transceivers are hot-swappable optical or electrical modules that enable network devices to transmit and receive data over fiber or copper cabling. It is the unit that actually sends and receives light on a fiber link. Typical form factors include SFP, SFP+, QSFP, CFP, etc. Fiber optic / optical. [PDF]
