Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an optical module and a method of operating the optical module. The optical module includes transmission channels and a monitor channel. The transmission channels produce a plurality of optical signals. Each transmission channel includes an equalizer circuit and a first converter. The equalizer circuit adjusts a received electrical signal to produce an adjusted electrical signal, and the first converter converts the adjusted electrical signal into the optical signal produced by the respective transmission channel. The monitor channel includes an optical multiplexer, a second converter, and a processing circuit. The optical multiplexer selects a first optical signal produced by a first transmission channel of the plurality of transmission channels. The second converter converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal. The processing circuit adjusts a first equalizer circuit of the first transmission channel. Adjusting the first equalizer circuit adjusts the first optical signal.
