Optical interface device of optical demultiplexer/multiplexer for high-speed optical module

Abstract

The invention relates to an optical interface device of an optical demultiplexer / multiplexer for a high-speed optical module. The optical interface device comprises a packaging shell, an external optical interface unit, two internal interface units and a demultiplexing / multiplexing optical unit. The external optical interface unit is mounted at an optical fiber interface position of the high-speed optical module and is used for accessing a connection optical fiber. The internal interface units are connected with an optical transceiving assembly. The demultiplexing / multiplexing optical unit in the packaging shell is used for demultiplexing / multiplexing optical signals on an optical fiber link. The device provided by the invention is used at the optical interface position of the high-speed optical module, and the optical fiber link out of the module and the optical transceiving assembly in the module can be connected easily. The device is small in structure, thereby facilitating miniaturization of the module. In the manufacturing and assembling process of the high-speed optical module, through adoption of the device provided by the invention, the high-speed optical module can be mounted and adjusted rapidly, and the assembling and debugging process is simple and rapid. No optical fiber is coiled in the module, so the optical fiber is prevented from being damaged or broken and the reliability of the module is improved, thereby facilitating the mounting and manufacturing of the high-speed optical module.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical communication device, in particular to an optical splitter and multiplexer optical port device used for a high-speed optical module, and belongs to the field of optical communication. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the optical communication field, the number of Internet users, application types, and network bandwidth have all shown explosive growth. The development of peer-to-peer (P2P) technology, online video, social networking, and mobile internet is constantly devouring network bandwidth. At the same time, with the rapid development of cloud computing, big data and other technologies, the cloud network with super data centers as the core has an even more urgent demand for bandwidth. Carriers and service providers are applying and deploying 100G high-speed optical transceiver modules on a large scale. 100G high-speed optical transceiver modules have become the mainstream configuration...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Using two 4-wavelength integrated optical transceiver components to realize a 400G optical module requires adding two devices, an optical demultiplexer and an optical multiplexer, inside the module shell. In the prior art, one implementation is to separate the two components of the multiplexer The device is installed inside the module in the form of a pigtail, which will occupy a large space inside the module, and it is difficult to install and operate to connect the optical transceiver component with the splitter and multiplexer, and it may fall due to manual operation or transportation. For other reasons, the optical fiber inside the module is easy to cause damage or breakage, which directly causes problems such as unqualified or failure of the optical module.
