Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-channel optical module based on double LC interfaces, and belongs to the technical field of optical modules. The optical module comprises an LD module with N channels, a multi-core optical fiber fan-in device with N input ports, a multi-core optical fiber which is coupled with the output port of the multi-core optical fiber fan-in device and is provided with N cores, and a multi-core optical fiber LC connector which is connected with the multi-core optical fiber, which are sequentially arranged along the direction of an output optical axis; the other multi-core optical fiber LC connector, the other N-core multi-core optical fiber connected with the other multi-core optical fiber LC connector, the multi-core optical fiber fan-out device coupled with the other N-core multi-core optical fiber and provided with N output ports, and a detector array connected with the N output ports of the multi-core optical fiber fan-out device, which are sequentially arranged in the direction of the input optical axis. According to the invention, the transmission of the optical module with 2N transceiving channels can be realized by using two multi-core optical fibers with N cores, so that the overall cost is better while the wiring space is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of optical modules, and more particularly relates to a multi-channel optical module based on dual LC interfaces. Background technique [0002] At present, high-speed optical modules mainly include SR4, PSM4, SR8, and SR16 for parallel transmission, and CWDM4, LR4, ER4, FR8, LR8, and ER8 for wavelength division multiplexing transmission schemes. Parallel transmission uses parallel transmission of multiple optical fibers to achieve high-speed transmission of a single module, such as figure 2 shown. For example, SR4 and PSM4 use 4 optical fibers to receive light and 4 optical fibers to emit light to realize 8-channel transmission and reception. SR8 needs to use 8 receptions and 8 transmissions, a total of 16 optical fibers for parallel transmission, and so on. The parallel solution needs to use high-density MPO connectors to connect with optical modules. The higher the number of channels, the higher the densi...
