+====== LRM (Long Reach Multimode) ======
+LRM stands for Long Reach Multimode, which is an optical connectivity standard defined in **IEEE 802.3aq**.
+Main Characteristics:
+Allows data transmission over multimode fiber (MMF) at longer distances than typically supported by standard multimode modules (such as SX or SR).
+**Specifically designed to work up to 220 meters over OM1, OM2, and OM3 multimode fiber (usually 62.5/125 μm or 50/125 μm).
+**
+Uses SFP+ LRM modules that generally operate at 10 Gbps.
+Commonly used in installations that need to reuse existing multimode cabling without having to replace it with single-mode fiber (SMF).
