Disclosed is an optical transceiver. The optical transceiver includes a decoder for decoding an 8B10B line-coded signal, a data mapper for separating the decoded signal into block units and securing extra memory capacity by mapping a data code and a block information code onto each of the separated blocks, and an FEC encoding unit for creating Forward Error Correction (FEC) data and mapping the FEC data onto the extra memory capacity.
