1. A light source module, comprising:
a housing, with an accommodating cavity disposed in the housing;
a light source, located in the accommodating cavity, and configured to emit light;
a light source connector, located at a first side of the accommodating cavity, protruding from the housing, and configured to receive the light emitted by the light source and output the light to a communication device external to the housing, wherein the light is used by the communication device to perform photoelectric modulation to generate a second optical signal;
an optical signal transceiver connector, located at the first side of the accommodating cavity, protruding from the housing, and configured to receive the second optical signal from the communication device external to the housing; and
an optical connector adapter, located at a second side of the accommodating cavity, and configured to receive the second optical signal from the optical signal transceiver connector,
wherein the second side is a side opposite to the first side of the accommodating cavity.
