Benefits of technology
[0005]The invention provides a wavelength division multiplexing module having reduced volume and a simple structure.
[0020]To sum up, in the wavelength division multiplexing module provided by the invention, wavelength division or multiplexing is performed on the light beams or the mixed light beam through the reflection region and the light transmission region on one side of the optical division element. Further, at least two of the light emitting elements or the light receiving elements are arranged in the extending direction of the housing. Therefore, the design of the housing may be simple, the wavelength division multiplexing module may be easily calibrated since the light ray angles in the wavelength division multiplexing module are susceptible to less changes, and that the volume taken up by the wavelength division multiplexing module is effective reduced.
Problems solved by technology
Therefore, based on high bandwidth requirements, demands for optical transceiver modules capable of transmitting massive amount of optical signal also become higher each day.
However, costs in deployment of optical cables can be fairly expensive.
Nonetheless, the existing wavelength division multiplexer involves numerous components, which lead to higher costs and lower yield rate in the manufacturing process due to complexity in terms of configuration.
Therefore, how to provide the wavelength division multiplexer designed with simple architecture, lesser space occupied in the device and wider application for multiple devices has long been an issue to be addressed by persons skilled in the art.

Embodiment Construction
[0031]FIG. 1 is a schematic three-dimensional view of a wavelength division multiplexing module according to an embodiment of the invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic three-dimensional view of the wavelength division multiplexing module of FIG. 1 from another view angle. With reference to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a wavelength division multiplexing module 100 provided by the invention is adapted to combine a plurality of light beams to a mixed light beam or is adapted to convert a mixed light beam to a plurality of light beams. The wavelength division multiplexing module 100 can be applied to serve an optical signal device using optical signals with multiple wavelengths, such as a coarse wavelength division multiplexer (CWDM), a dense wavelength division multiplexer (DWDM), or optical signal devices of other types. The wavelength division multiplexing module 100 adapted to combine the light beams to the mixed light beam is taken as an example in a majority part of the description below.
