[0085] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings to clearly and in detail describe the technical solutions in some embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments provided by the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0086] In optical communication technology, to establish information transmission between information processing devices, it is necessary to load the information onto light and use the propagation of light to achieve information transmission. Here, the light loaded with information is an optical signal. When transmitting optical signals within information transmission equipment, they can reduce optical power loss, thereby enabling high-speed, long-distance, and low-cost information transmission. The signals that information processing equipment can recognize and process are electrical signals. Information processing equipment typically includes optical network units (ONUs), gateways, routers, switches, mobile phones, computers, servers, tablets, televisions, etc., and information transmission equipment typically includes optical fibers and optical waveguides.
[0087] Optical modules can convert optical signals into electrical signals between information processing devices and information transmission devices. For example, at least one of the optical signal input or output ends of an optical module is connected to an optical fiber, and at least one of the electrical signal input or output ends of the optical module is connected to an optical network terminal. A first optical signal from the optical fiber is transmitted to the optical module, which converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal and transmits the first electrical signal to the optical network terminal. A second electrical signal from the optical network terminal is transmitted to the optical module, which converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber. Because multiple information processing devices can transmit information via electrical signals, at least one of the multiple information processing devices needs to be directly connected to the optical module, rather than all of them. Here, the information processing device directly connected to the optical module is referred to as the optical module's host computer. Furthermore, the optical signal input or output end of the optical module can be referred to as an optical port, and the electrical signal input or output end of the optical module can be referred to as an electrical port.
[0088] Figure 1 is a partial structural diagram of an optical communication system provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 1, the optical communication system mainly includes a remote information processing device 1000, a local information processing device 2000, a host computer 100, an optical module 200, an optical fiber 101, and a network cable 103.
[0089] One end of optical fiber 101 extends toward remote information processing device 1000, and the other end of optical fiber 101 is connected to optical module 200 through the optical port of optical module 200. Optical signals can be totally reflected in optical fiber 101, and the propagation of the optical signal in the direction of total reflection can almost maintain the original optical power. The optical signal undergoes multiple total reflections in optical fiber 101 to transmit the optical signal from remote information processing device 1000 to optical module 200, and vice versa, thereby achieving long-distance, low-power information transmission.
[0090] The optical communication system may include one or more optical fibers 101, and the optical fibers 101 may be detachably connected or fixedly connected to the optical module 200. The host computer 100 is configured to provide data signals to the optical module 200, receive data signals from the optical module 200, or monitor or control the operating status of the optical module 200.
[0091] The host computer 100 includes a substantially rectangular housing and an optical module interface 102 disposed on the housing. The optical module interface 102 is configured to connect to the optical module 200 so as to establish a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and the optical module 200.
[0092] The host computer 100 also includes an external electrical interface that can access an electrical signal network. For example, the external electrical interface includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface or a network cable interface 104. The network cable interface 104 is configured to access a network cable 103 so that the host computer 100 establishes a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection with the network cable 103. One end of the network cable 103 is connected to the local information processing device 2000, and the other end of the network cable 103 is connected to the host computer 100, so that an electrical signal connection is established between the local information processing device 2000 and the host computer 100 via the network cable 103. For example, a third electrical signal emitted by the local information processing device 2000 is transmitted to the host computer 100 via the network cable 103. The host computer 100 generates a second electrical signal based on the third electrical signal. The second electrical signal from the host computer 100 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber 101. The second optical signal is then transmitted to the remote information processing device 1000 via the optical fiber 101. For example, a first optical signal from the remote information processing device 1000 is transmitted through the optical fiber 101. The first optical signal from the optical fiber 101 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal. The optical module 200 transmits the first electrical signal to the host computer 100. The host computer 100 generates a fourth electrical signal based on the first electrical signal and transmits the fourth electrical signal to the local information processing device 2000. It should be noted that optical modules are tools for converting optical signals into electrical signals. During this conversion process, the information does not change, but the encoding and decoding methods of the information can change.
[0093] In addition to the optical network terminal, the host computer 100 also includes an optical line terminal (OLT), an optical network device (ONT), or a data center server.
[0094] FIG2 is a partial structural diagram of a host computer provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In order to clearly show the connection relationship between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100, FIG2 only shows the structure of the host computer 100 related to the optical module 200. As shown in FIG2, the host computer 100 also includes a PCB circuit board 105 disposed in the housing, a cage 106 disposed on the surface of the PCB circuit board 105, a heat sink 107 disposed on the cage 106, and an electrical connector disposed inside the cage 106. The electrical connector is configured to connect to the electrical port of the optical module 200; the heat sink 107 has a protruding structure such as fins that increase the heat dissipation area.
[0095] The optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106 of the host computer 100. The cage 106 secures the optical module 200. Heat generated by the optical module 200 is transferred to the cage 106 and then dissipated through the heat sink 107. After the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the electrical port of the optical module 200 connects with the electrical connector inside the cage 106, thereby establishing a bidirectional electrical signal connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100. Furthermore, the optical port of the optical module 200 connects to the optical fiber 101, thereby establishing a bidirectional optical signal connection between the optical module 200 and the optical fiber 101.
[0096] Figure 3 is a structural diagram of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 4 is an exploded view of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the optical module 200 includes a housing, a circuit board 300 disposed within the housing, a light emitting component 400, and a light receiving component 500. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the optical module 200 includes either the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500.
[0097] The housing includes an upper housing 201 and a lower housing 202 . The upper housing 201 covers the lower housing 202 to form the housing having two openings 203 and 204 . The outer contour of the housing is generally a square.
[0098] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a base plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the base plate 2021 and arranged perpendicular to the base plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes an upper cover plate 2011, and the upper cover plate 2011 covers the two lower side plates 2022 of the lower shell 202 to form the above-mentioned shell.
[0099] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a base plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the base plate 2021 and arranged perpendicularly to the base plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes an upper cover plate 2011 and two upper side plates 2012 located on both sides of the upper cover plate 2011 and arranged perpendicularly to the upper cover plate 2011. The two upper side plates 2012 are combined with the two lower side plates 2022 to achieve the upper shell 201 covering the lower shell 202.
[0100] The direction of the line connecting the two openings 203 and 204 can be consistent with the length of the optical module 200, or it can be inconsistent with the length of the optical module 200. For example, opening 203 is located at the end of the optical module 200 (the left end in Figure 3), and opening 204 is located at the end of the optical module 200 (the right end in Figure 3). Alternatively, opening 203 is located at the end of the optical module 200, while opening 204 is located on the side of the optical module 200. Opening 203 is an electrical port, and the end of the circuit board 300 extends from opening 203 and is inserted into the electrical connector of the host computer 100. Opening 204 is an optical port, configured to connect to an external optical fiber 101, so that the optical fiber 101 connects the light emitting component 400 and the light receiving component 500 in the optical module 200.
[0101] The combined assembly of the upper and lower housings 201 and 202 facilitates the installation of the circuit board 300, the light-emitting component 400, the light-receiving component 500, and the like within the housing, which then provides encapsulation and protection for these components. Furthermore, when assembling the circuit board 300, the light-emitting component 400, the light-receiving component 500, and the like, the combined assembly of the upper and lower housings 201 and 202 facilitates the placement of positioning components, heat dissipation components, and electromagnetic shielding components for these components, facilitating automated production.
[0102] In some embodiments, the upper shell 201 and the lower shell 202 are made of metal materials, which facilitates electromagnetic shielding and heat dissipation.
[0103] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 further includes an unlocking component 600 located outside its housing. The unlocking component 600 is configured to achieve a fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100, or to release the fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100.
[0104] For example, the unlocking component 600 is located on the outside of the two lower side panels 2022 of the lower housing 202 and includes a snap-fit component that mates with the cage 106 of the host computer 100. When the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the snap-fit component of the unlocking component 600 secures the optical module 200 in the cage 106. When the unlocking component 600 is pulled, the snap-fit component of the unlocking component 600 moves accordingly, thereby changing the connection between the snap-fit component and the host computer, thereby releasing the optical module 200 from the cage 106 and allowing the optical module 200 to be removed from the cage 106.
[0105] The circuit board 300 includes circuit traces, electronic components and chips, etc. The electronic components and chips are connected according to the circuit design through the circuit traces to achieve functions such as power supply, electrical signal transmission and grounding. Electronic components can include capacitors, resistors, transistors, metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, etc.
[0106] Chips may include, for example, a microcontroller unit (MCU), a laser driver chip, a transimpedance amplifier (TIA), a limiting amplifier (LA), a clock and data recovery (CDR) chip, a power management chip, and a digital signal processing (DSP) chip.
[0107] The circuit board 300 is generally a rigid circuit board. Due to its relatively hard material, the rigid circuit board can also realize the load-bearing function. For example, the rigid circuit board can stably carry the above-mentioned electronic components and chips; the rigid circuit board can also be inserted into the electrical connector in the cage 106 of the host computer 100.
[0108] The circuit board 300 also includes a gold finger 301 formed on its end surface, and the gold finger 301 is composed of a plurality of independent pins. The circuit board 300 is inserted into the cage 106, and the gold finger 301 is connected to the electrical connector in the cage 106. The gold finger 301 can be set only on the surface of one side of the circuit board 300 (for example, the upper surface shown in Figure 4), or it can be set on the upper and lower surfaces of the circuit board 300 to provide a larger number of pins, thereby adapting to occasions where a large number of pins are required. The gold finger 301 is configured to establish an electrical connection with the host computer to achieve power supply, grounding, two-wire synchronous serial (Inter-Integrated Circuit, I2C) signal transmission, data signal transmission, etc. Of course, flexible circuit boards are also used in some optical modules. Flexible circuit boards are generally used in conjunction with rigid circuit boards to supplement rigid circuit boards.
[0109] The optical emitting component 400 is used to receive electrical signals transmitted by the circuit board 300, thereby generating optical signals. The optical receiving component 500 is used to receive optical signals input from the optical module and convert them into electrical signals. At least one of the optical emitting component 400 and the optical receiving component 500 is located on the side of the circuit board 300 away from the gold finger 301.
[0110] In some embodiments, the light emitting component 400 and the light receiving component 500 are physically separated from the circuit board 300 and then electrically connected to the circuit board 300 through corresponding flexible circuit boards or electrical connectors.
[0111] In some embodiments, at least one of the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500 may be directly disposed on the circuit board 300. For example, at least one of the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500 may be disposed on a surface of the circuit board 300 or a side of the circuit board 300.
[0112] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 also includes an optical transmission component 700, which is disposed in the housing. The optical transmission component 700 is used to establish an optical connection between the optical emitting component 400, the optical receiving component 500 and the external optical fiber 101 (hereinafter referred to as the external optical fiber), so that the optical signal generated by the optical emitting component 400 can be coupled to the external optical fiber, and the optical signal input from the external optical fiber can be coupled to the optical receiving component.
[0113] In some embodiments, the optical transmission component 700 includes a fiber optic adapter and an optical fiber. The optical fiber can also be referred to as an internal optical fiber relative to the external optical fiber. One end of the optical fiber is connected to the fiber optic adapter, and the other end of the optical fiber is connected to the optical emitting component 400 or the optical receiving component 500. Exemplarily, the optical transmission component 700 includes one or more fiber optic adapters, and the optical fiber includes multiple optical fibers. The optical emitting component 400 can be connected to one or more fiber optic adapters via one or more optical fibers, and the optical receiving component 500 can be connected to one or more fiber optic adapters via multiple optical fibers. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the structural form of the optical fiber adapter is not limited to one type.

[0141] Figure 9 is an exploded schematic diagram of a light emitting component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 10 is a partial schematic diagram of a light emitting component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0143] In some embodiments, the light emitting assembly 430 may include multiple lasers 431, so that the light emitting assembly 430 can generate multiple light signals. Exemplarily, the light emitting assembly 430 includes 2N lasers 431, such as 4 lasers 431 or 8 lasers 431.

[0146] In some embodiments, the light emitting component 400 may include a combiner group 450, which is disposed on the emitting base 410 and disposed in the output light path of the light emitting assembly 430.

[0147] In some embodiments, the combiner group 450 includes multiple combiners, and one combiner is corresponding to combining the optical signals output by multiple lasers 431. Exemplarily, the right side of the combiner includes four optical input ports for inputting signal light of multiple wavelengths, each optical input port is used to input signal light of one wavelength; the left side of the combiner includes an optical output port for outputting light.

In this way, the combiner can realize that signal lights of different wavelengths are input through different optical input ports and output through the same optical output port, thereby realizing light combination of signal lights of different wavelengths.
[0148] In some embodiments, the combiner group 450 includes a first combiner 451 and a second combiner 452. The first combiner 451 and the second combiner 452 are arranged side by side on the transmitting base 410.

[0150] In some embodiments, the converging lens group 460 includes a first converging lens 461 and a second converging lens 462 . The first converging lens 461 is located on the output optical path of the first combiner 451 , and the second converging lens 462 is located on the output optical path of the second combiner 452 .
[0151] In some embodiments, the optical transmission component 400 may include an optical fiber fixing assembly 470, which is used to connect to the optical transmission component 700 to facilitate coupling of the optical signal generated by the optical transmission component 400 to the optical transmission component 700. The optical fiber fixing assembly 470 includes an optical fiber fixing head, which connects the optical transmission component 700 and the transmitting base 410 to connect the optical transmission component 700 to the optical transmission component 400. Exemplarily, the optical fiber fixing head is connected to the end of the optical fiber in the optical transmission component 700 to facilitate protection of the end of the optical fiber and to facilitate fixed connection of the end of the optical fiber, so that the optical signal output by the optical transmission component 400 is coupled to the optical transmission component 700.
[0152] In some embodiments, the optical fiber fixing head in the optical fiber fixing assembly 470 can fix the ends of one or more optical fibers. For example, the optical fiber fixing head in the optical fiber fixing assembly 470 can fix the ends of two, four, or eight optical fibers.
[0153] In some embodiments, the optical fiber fixing assembly 470 includes a first optical fiber fixing head 471 and a second optical fiber fixing head 472. The first optical fiber fixing head 471 is connected to the other end of the first transmission group 710, and the second optical fiber fixing head 472 is connected to the other end of the first transmission group 710. For example, the first optical fiber fixing head 471 is connected to the first optical fiber 711a, and the second optical fiber fixing head 472 is connected to the first optical fiber 711b.
[0154] In some embodiments, the light input end of the first optical fiber fixing head 471 is optically connected to the first combiner 451, and the light input end of the second optical fiber fixing head 472 is optically connected to the second combiner 452.

[0158] In some embodiments, the TEC assembly 480 includes a TEC 481 , and the top of the TEC 481 is fixedly supported by the light emitting assembly 430 .
[0159] Figure 11 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a transmitting base provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 12 is a cross-sectional view of an optical transmitting component and a circuit board provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 11 and 12, the transmitting base 410 includes a first mounting surface 411, which extends from the left side of the transmitting base 410 to the right side. When the transmitting base 410 is inserted into the mounting hole 302, the first mounting surface 411 is bonded to the back side of the circuit board 300. The side surface of the transmitting base 410 can be bonded to the back side of the circuit board 300 using solid glue to achieve a fixed connection between the transmitting base 410 and the circuit board 300.
[0160] A mounting groove 412 is formed at one end of the first mounting surface 411, and the mounting surface within the mounting groove 412 is recessed in the first mounting surface 411. The light-emitting assembly 430 is positioned within the mounting groove 412, and the mounting groove 412 is used to adjust the relative height of the top of the light-emitting assembly 430 and the front surface of the circuit board 300. For example, the mounting groove 412 allows the top of the light-emitting assembly 430 to be flush with the front surface of the circuit board 300.
[0161] In some embodiments, the TEC assembly 480 is located in the mounting groove 412. Exemplarily, the bottom of the TEC 481 is connected to the mounting surface of the mounting groove 412, so that the relative height between the top of the TEC 481 and the front of the circuit board 300 can be adjusted through the mounting groove 412.
[0162] In some embodiments, the transmitting base 410 includes a second mounting surface 413 that protrudes from the first mounting surface 411 and is located between the mounting slot 412 and the left side of the transmitting base 410. The combiner assembly 450 is disposed on the second mounting surface 413.
[0163] In some embodiments, a glue guide groove 414 is formed on the second mounting surface 413. The glue guide groove 414 is recessed in the second mounting surface 413. The combiner is placed on the second mounting surface 413, and then glue is injected into the glue guide groove 414 to achieve bonding and fixing of the combiner and the transmitting base 410 through the glue.
[0164] In some embodiments, two glue guiding grooves 414 are formed on the second mounting surface 413 . One of the glue guiding grooves 414 is covered under the first combiner 451 , and the other one of the glue guiding grooves 414 is covered under the second combiner 452 .
[0165] In some embodiments, a first baffle 415 and a second baffle 416 are formed on the first mounting surface 411 of the launch base 410. The first baffle 415 and the second baffle 416 extend from the first mounting surface 411 toward the upper housing 201. Exemplarily, the first baffle 415 and the second baffle 416 are parallel to the two lower side panels 2022 of the lower housing 202, respectively, and the second mounting surface 413 is located between the first baffle 415 and the second baffle 416.
[0166] In some embodiments, in the width direction of the launching base 410, the distance between the first baffle 415 and the second baffle 4165 is smaller than the width dimension of the launching base 410, there is a certain distance between the first baffle 415 and the side of the launching base 410 facing the lower side plate 2022, and there is a certain distance between the second baffle 416 and the side of the launching base 410 facing the other lower side plate 2022.
[0167] When the launching base 410 is embedded in the mounting hole 302, the first mounting surface 411 abuts against the back surface of the circuit board 300, the first baffle 415 and the second baffle 416 are located in the mounting hole 302, the first baffle 415 abuts against the rear side surface of the mounting hole 302, and the second baffle 416 abuts against the front side surface of the mounting hole 302, so as to limit the launching base 410 by the first baffle 415 and the second baffle 416.
[0168] In some embodiments, two glue guide grooves 414 are formed on the second mounting surface 413. One glue guide groove 414 has an opening on a side facing the first baffle 415 (the rear side of the first baffle 415). A gap exists between the glue guide groove 414 and the first baffle 415, allowing glue to be injected into the glue guide groove 414 through the gap, and the amount of glue in the glue guide groove 414 can be balanced by the gap. The other glue guide groove 414 has an opening on a side facing the second baffle 416 (the front side of the second baffle 416). A gap exists between the glue guide groove 414 and the second baffle 416, allowing glue to be injected into the glue guide groove 414 through the gap, and the amount of glue in the glue guide groove 414 can be balanced by the gap.
[0169] In some embodiments, the rear side of the first combiner 451 abuts against the first baffle 415 to limit the combiner through the first baffle 415; the front side of the second combiner 452 abuts against the second baffle 416 to limit the combiner through the second baffle 416.
[0170] In some embodiments, in order to improve the heat dissipation efficiency, a heat conductor 4101 is provided on the bottom surface of the launching base 410 (facing the bottom plate 2021 of the lower shell 202), and the launching base 410 is in contact with the bottom plate 2021 through the heat conductor 4101. The launching base 410 conducts heat to the heat conductor 4101, and the heat is conducted to the lower shell 202 via the heat conductor 4101, so as to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the launching base 410 through the heat conductor 4101.
[0171] In some embodiments, a mounting platform 417 is formed at one end of the first mounting surface 411 (the left end in the figure), and the mounting platform 417 extends from the first mounting surface 411 toward the upper shell 201. In the width direction of the launching base 410, the width dimension of the mounting platform 417 is smaller than the width dimension of the launching base 410, and the width dimension of the mounting platform 417 is smaller than the distance between the first baffle 415 and the second baffle 416. The distance between the rear side surface of the mounting platform 417 and the rear side surface of the mounting hole 302 is the first width, and the distance between the front side surface of the mounting platform 417 and the front side surface of the mounting hole 302 is the second width. The first width and the second width may be the same.
[0172] In some embodiments, due to the coupling connection between the optical combiner and the fiber coupler, the first width and the second width may be different. For example, when the light outlet of the optical combiner is close to the first baffle 415 , the first width is smaller than the second width.
[0173] In some embodiments, the mounting platform 417 is formed with a first through hole 4171 and a second through hole 4172, which extend through the mounting platform 417 in the left-right direction. The first fiber optic fixing head 471 is inserted into the first through hole 4171, and the second fiber optic fixing head 472 is inserted into the second through hole 4172. In some embodiments, the top of the mounting platform 417 can directly support and connect the first and second fiber optic fixing heads 471 and 472.
[0174] Due to the different transmission media, the composite light is easily reflected at the fiber end face in the fiber coupler. Most of the composite light enters the fiber, and a small part of the composite light is reflected at the fiber end face. The reflected composite light may return to the laser along the original path, affecting the laser's luminescence performance.
[0175] To prevent reflected light from returning to the laser along its original path, a fiber optic ferrule 4711 and an isolator 4712 are provided within the first fiber optic fixture 471. The fiber optic ferrule 4711 is used to secure the end of the first optical fiber 711a, and the isolator 4712 is located at the end of the first optical fiber fixture 471 facing the first converging lens 461. The optical signal output by the first combiner 451 is converged into the first optical fiber fixture 471 via the first converging lens 461, passes through the isolator 4712, and is coupled to the first optical fiber 711a. When the optical signal is reflected at the end face of the first optical fiber 711a, the reflected optical signal is isolated by the isolator 4712 and cannot pass through the isolator 4712. As a result, the reflected light cannot return to the laser, thus ensuring the laser's luminous performance.
[0176] In some embodiments, the structure of the second optical fiber fixing head 472 may refer to the structure of the first optical fiber fixing head 471 .
[0177] Figure 13 is an exploded schematic diagram of another optical transmitter component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 14 is a partial schematic diagram of another optical transmitter component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 13 and 14, the transmitter base 410 may include a third mounting surface 418, which is located at one end of the transmitter base 410 near the optical port; the third mounting surface 418 supports and connects the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the second optical fiber fixing head 472.
[0178] In some embodiments, mounting platform 417 can be disposed on third mounting surface 418, positioned between the output optical path of first combiner 451 and the output optical path of second combiner 452. The rear side of mounting platform 417 is positionally coupled to the side of first fiber optic mounting head 471, while the front side of mounting platform 417 is positionally coupled to second fiber optic mounting head 472. This facilitates both the assembly and disassembly of first and second fiber optic mounting heads 471, 472, and reduces damage during disassembly.
[0179] In some embodiments, the transmitting base 410 may include a fourth mounting surface 419, which is located on a side of the second mounting surface 413 near the third mounting surface 418. A gap is formed between the fourth mounting surface 419 and the third mounting surface 418. The light input ends of the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the second optical fiber fixing head 472 extend above the gap, which helps reduce assembly interference between the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the second optical fiber fixing head 472, thereby ensuring assembly accuracy of the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the second optical fiber fixing head 472.
[0180] In some embodiments, the fourth mounting surface 419 is higher than the third mounting surface 418. A step surface 4191 is formed on the side of the fourth mounting surface 419 that is closest to the third mounting surface 418. The step surface 4191 is located at the edge of the gap between the fourth mounting surface 419 and the third mounting surface 418. The bottom of the light input end of the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the bottom of the light input end of the second optical fiber fixing head 472 abut against the step surface 4191. The step surface 4191 serves to limit the assembly of the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the second optical fiber fixing head 472.
[0181] In some embodiments, the outer contours of the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the second optical fiber fixing head 472 are square, that is, there are multiple planes on the first optical fiber fixing head 471 and the second optical fiber fixing head 472 to assemble and connect the transmitting base 410 through the planes.
[0182] In some embodiments, the light-emitting assembly 430 includes eight lasers 431, the collimating lens group 440 includes eight collimating lenses 441, the combiner group 450 includes a first combiner 451 and a second combiner 452, the converging lens group 460 includes a first converging lens 461 and a second converging lens 462, and the first optical fiber 711 includes a first optical fiber 711a and a first optical fiber 711b. The eight lasers 431 generate eight optical signals, which are converted into eight collimated lights by the eight collimating lenses 441. Four of the collimated lights are transmitted to the first combiner 451, where they are combined into a beam and transmitted to the first converging lens 461. The beam is then converged by the first converging lens 461 and transmitted to the first optical fiber 711a, allowing one optical fiber to transmit four optical signals. The other four collimated lights are transmitted to the second combiner 452 , combined into one beam by the second combiner 452 and transmitted to the second converging lens 462 , and then converged by the second converging lens 462 and transmitted to the first optical fiber 711 b , so that one optical fiber can transmit four optical signals.

The distance between the first side panel 4201 and the third side panel 4203 is greater than the distance between the fifth side panel 4205 and the sixth side panel 4207.

[0186] In some embodiments, when the launch cover 420 is covered on the launch base 410, the inner side surface of the top plate 4200 contacts the top surface of the mounting platform 417, and the first side plate 4201, the second side plate 4202, the third side plate 4203, the fourth side plate 4204, the fifth side plate 4205, the sixth side plate 4207 and the seventh side plate 4208 are connected to the front support of the circuit board 300 to fix and support the launch cover 420 through the circuit board 300.
[0187] In some embodiments, the fifth side plate 4205 and the sixth side plate 4207 are respectively in contact with the front and rear side surfaces of the mounting platform 417 so as to limit the launch cover 420 in the front and rear directions through the fifth side plate 4205 and the sixth side plate 4207 .
[0188] In some embodiments, a buckle 4206 is formed on the left side of the top plate 4200, and the buckle 4206 extends from the top plate 4200 toward the circuit board 300. The buckle 4206 is located between the fifth side plate 4205 and the sixth side plate 4207. When the launch cover 420 is covered on the launch base 410, the buckle 4206 is engaged with the left side surface of the mounting platform 417 to limit the launch cover 420 in the left and right directions through the buckle 4206.
[0189] Figure 17 is a schematic diagram of the structure of another launch cover provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 18 is a schematic diagram of another launch cover provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure in use. In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 17 and 18, the launch cover 420 includes a top plate 4200, an eighth side plate 4209, a ninth side plate 4210, a tenth side plate 4211, an eleventh side plate 4212, a twelfth side plate 4213, and a thirteenth side plate 4214. The tops of the eighth side plate 4209, the ninth side plate 4210, the tenth side plate 4211, the eleventh side plate 4212, the twelfth side plate 4213, and the thirteenth side plate 4214 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner side surface of the top plate 4200. A first spacer 4215 is formed between the eleventh side plate 4212 and the twelfth side plate 4213, and a second spacer 4216 is formed between the twelfth side plate 4213 and the thirteenth side plate 4214.
[0190] In some embodiments, the heights of the eleventh side panel 4212, the twelfth side panel 4213, and the thirteenth side panel 4214 are greater than the height of the eighth side panel 4209, and the heights of the ninth side panel 4210 and the tenth side panel 4211 are equal to the height of the eighth side panel 4209.

The mounting platform 417 allows the launch base 410 to be assembled and restrained with the launch cover 420, thereby reducing the risk of the launch cover 420 contacting components within the launch cavity during assembly. The front support of the circuit board 300 is connected to the bottom of the eighth side panel 4209, the ninth side panel 4210, and the tenth side panel 4211.
[0192] FIG19 is a partial schematic diagram of another optical emitting component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and FIG20 is a schematic diagram of the assembly of another optical emitting component and a circuit board provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG19 and FIG20 , the optical fiber fixing assembly 470 includes a third optical fiber fixing head 473, which is disposed on the transmitting base 410; the third optical fiber fixing head 473 is fixedly connected to the optical transmission assembly 700. The third optical fiber fixing head 473 is located on the output optical path of the light-emitting assembly 430. The third optical fiber fixing head 473 is used to fix the end of the optical transmission assembly 700 on the output optical path of the light-emitting assembly 430, so as to facilitate coupling the optical signal generated by the light-emitting assembly 430 to the first transmission group 710.
[0193] In some embodiments, the bottom of the third optical fiber fixing head 473 is fixedly connected to the transmitting base 410, and the middle portion of the third optical fiber fixing head 473 is connected to the end of the first optical fiber 711, so that the first optical fiber 711 extends transversely through the third optical fiber fixing head 473. Exemplarily, the first optical fiber 711 includes multiple optical fibers, and the multiple optical signals generated by the light-emitting assembly 430 are coupled to corresponding first optical fibers 711, allowing the first transmission group 710 to transmit multiple optical signals. For example, the first optical fibers 711 may include four or eight optical fibers.
[0194] In some embodiments, the light reflective component 400 may include an isolator assembly 490, which is disposed on the light-incident side of the third optical fiber fixture 473. The isolator assembly 490 is used to isolate the optical signal reflected back from the optical fiber end face of the first optical fiber 711. Exemplarily, the isolator assembly 490 includes a plurality of isolators 491, which are located on the side of the third optical fiber fixture 473. The isolators 491 are supported and connected to the emitting base, and are disposed correspondingly in the direction of the light-incident axis of the first optical fiber 711.
[0195] In some embodiments, an isolator assembly 490 is disposed on the transmission optical path from the collimating lens assembly 440 to the third optical fiber fixture 473. The optical signal collimated by the collimating lens assembly 440 passes through the isolator assembly 490 and is coupled to the first optical fiber 711 after passing through the isolator assembly 490. Exemplarily, the optical axis of the collimating lens 441 is coaxial with the optical axis of the first optical fiber 711, and the isolator 491 is located on the optical axis of the corresponding collimating lens 441.
[0196] In some embodiments, the isolator 491 is fixedly connected to the right side of the third optical fiber fixing head 473 , where the right side of the third optical fiber fixing head 473 is the side of the third optical fiber fixing head 473 facing the light emitting assembly 430 .
[0197] In some embodiments, the light-emitting component 430 generates multiple light signals, which are correspondingly transmitted to the collimating lenses 441 in the collimating lens group 440 and then collimated by the corresponding collimating lenses 441 and transmitted to the isolator group 490, and then coupled to the optical fiber of the optical transmission component 700 through the isolator group 490.
[0198] Figure 21 is a schematic diagram of another transmitting base structure provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 21, a relief groove 4131 is provided on the left side of the second mounting surface 413. The side of the relief groove 4131 extends to the left end surface of the transmitting base 410, the front end of the relief groove 4131 extends to the first baffle 415, and the rear end of the relief groove 4131 extends to the second baffle 416. The second mounting surface 413 supports and connects to the third fiber optic fixing head 473. The relief groove 4131 avoids the third fiber optic fixing head 473 to facilitate the assembly and connection between the third fiber optic fixing head 473 and the transmitting base 410.
[0199] In some embodiments, a pillar array is disposed on the right edge of second mounting surface 413, extending from the front of second mounting surface 413 to the rear of second mounting surface 413. The pillar array includes a plurality of pillars, with spaces between adjacent pillars. Isolators 491 in isolator assembly 490 are disposed within corresponding spaces, and the sidewalls of the pillars support and connect isolators 491.
[0200] In some embodiments, the front side of the first baffle 415 includes an assembly positioning surface 4151. The assembly positioning surface 4151 is formed by the front side of the first baffle 415 protruding toward the second baffle 416. The assembly positioning surface 4151 extends shorter than the rear side of the first baffle 415. Exemplarily, the assembly positioning surface 4151 is located in the middle of the front side of the first baffle 415, forming a raised structure on the front side of the first baffle. In this way, the assembly positioning surface 4151 can both assemble and position the third fiber optic fixing head 473 and reduce assembly obstructions to the third fiber optic fixing head 473. When the third fiber optic fixing head 473 is secured to the transmitting base 410, the rear side of the third fiber optic fixing head 473 abuts the assembly positioning surface 4151.
[0201] In some embodiments, the rear side surface of the second baffle 416 may include an assembly positioning surface, through which the third optical fiber fixing head 473 is assembled and positioned.
[0202] FIG22 is a schematic structural diagram of a third optical fiber fixing head provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and FIG23 is a cross-sectional view of a third optical fiber fixing head provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG22 and FIG23 , the third optical fiber fixing head 473 includes an optical fiber support plate 4731 and an optical fiber cover plate 4732. The optical fiber cover plate 4732 covers and connects to the optical fiber support plate 4731, so that the optical fiber cover plate 4732 and the optical fiber support plate 4731 are fixedly connected to the end of the first optical fiber 711. Exemplarily, the optical fiber support plate 4731 supports and connects to the end of the first optical fiber 711, which extends from one end of the optical fiber support plate 4731 to the other end of the optical fiber support plate 4731. When the optical fiber cover plate 4732 covers and connects to the optical fiber support plate 4731, the light input end of the end face of the first optical fiber 711 is unobstructed, allowing the optical signal generated by the light-emitting assembly 430 to be transmitted to the end face of the first optical fiber 711 and coupled into the first optical fiber 711 through the end face of the first optical fiber 711.
[0203] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG22 , the left end of the fiber support plate 4731 is flush with the left end of the fiber cover plate 4732. Of course, in the disclosed embodiment, the left end of the fiber cover plate 4732 may extend beyond the left end of the fiber support plate 4731, i.e., the left end of the fiber cover plate 4732 is longer than the left end of the fiber support plate 4731. When the left end of the fiber cover plate 4732 extends beyond the left end of the fiber support plate 4731, the fiber cover plate 4732 effectively reduces the transitional bending of the first optical fiber 711 toward the top of the third optical fiber fixing head 473, thereby helping to protect the first optical fiber 711.
[0204] In some embodiments, the first optical fiber 711 includes multiple optical fibers, such as 2, 4, 8, etc.
[0205] In some embodiments, the fiber support plate 4731 is a single unitary structure, and the fiber cover plate 4732 is a single unitary structure. Of course, in some embodiments, the fiber support plate 4731 may include multiple support plates, and the fiber cover plate 4732 may include multiple cover plates, to form a third fiber fixing head 473 comprising multiple segments. Each segment can hold a number of optical fibers, such as two or four optical fibers. This facilitates coupling and securing the third fiber fixing head 473, ensuring efficient coupling of the optical signal to the first optical fiber 711.
[0206] Figure 24 is a cross-sectional view of another optical transmission component and circuit board provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 24, in some embodiments, the right end of the third optical fiber fixing head 473 is formed with an inclined surface 4733, and the inclined surface 4733 is not perpendicular to the top surface of the third optical fiber fixing head 473. The inclined angle of the inclined surface 4733 can be 2-7 degrees. The isolator 491 is fixedly connected to the inclined surface 4733, so that the isolator 491 is tilted in the optical path from the collimating lens 441 to the first optical fiber 711, which helps to ensure the isolation effect of the isolator 491.
[0207] In some embodiments, the light-emitting assembly 430 includes eight lasers 431, the collimating lens assembly 440 includes eight collimating lenses 441, the isolator assembly 490 includes eight isolators, and the first optical fiber 711 includes eight optical fibers. The eight lasers 431 generate eight optical signals, which are converted into eight collimated lights by the eight collimating lenses 441. The eight collimated lights are directly transmitted through the eight isolators 491 and emitted into the eight optical fibers, allowing each optical fiber to transmit one optical signal.

The first latch 4218 and the second latch 4219 are used to limit the connection between the launch cover 420 and the launch base 410.

[0231] Figure 33 is a partially exploded schematic diagram of a first light receiving component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 34 is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of a first light receiving component provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Figures 33 and 34 illustrate the structure of a first light receiving component 510. In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 33 and 34, the first light receiving component 510 includes an optical collimator 511, an optical splitter 512, a detector group 304, and a transimpedance amplifier group 305. The detector group 304 and the transimpedance amplifier group 305 are disposed on a circuit board 300. The light output end of the optical collimator 511 is connected to the light input end of the optical splitter 512. The output end face of the optical splitter 512 is a reflective surface, which is arranged at an angle and is located directly above the detector group 304. Exemplarily, the detector group 304 includes multiple detectors, such as N detectors, for receiving N optical signals.
[0232] In some embodiments, the detector group 304 and the transimpedance amplifier group 305 can be directly disposed on the circuit board 300. Of course, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a substrate can be disposed on the circuit board 300, and the detector group 304 can be disposed on the substrate, so that the height of the photosensitive surfaces of the detectors in the detector group 304 can be adjusted through the substrate, and the distance between the photosensitive surfaces of the detectors and the output end face of the optical demultiplexer 512 can be adjusted through the substrate.
[0233] In some embodiments, the optical collimator 511 includes a single-mode fiber flange and a collimator. The optical fiber in the optical transmission assembly 700 is inserted into the optical collimator 511 through the single-mode fiber flange. The optical collimator 511 is located on the light-emitting surface of the internal optical fiber and is used to convert external light transmitted by the internal optical fiber into collimated light. Exemplarily, the second optical fiber 721 is inserted into the optical collimator 511 through the single-mode fiber flange.
[0234] In some embodiments, the second optical fiber 721 may include an optical fiber. A beam of composite light input from an external optical fiber is transmitted to the optical collimator 511 through the second optical fiber 721, and is transmitted to the optical splitter 512 through the optical collimator 511. One path of composite light is demultiplexed into multi-path light by the optical splitter 512. The multi-path light is reflected at the reflection surface of the optical splitter 512, and the light beam with an optical axis parallel to the circuit board 300 is reflected into a light beam with an optical axis perpendicular to the circuit board 300, so that the reflected light beam is incident on the detector group 304 to achieve light reception.
[0235] In some embodiments, the first light receiving component 510 may include a converging lens 515, which is disposed on the reflected light path of the optical splitter 512. The split light reflected by the reflective surface of the optical splitter 512 is converged to the detector by the converging lens 515, so as to ensure the receiving performance of the detector.
[0236] In some embodiments, the converging lens 515 is disposed on the optical demultiplexer 512. For example, the top of the converging lens 515 is connected to the bottom of the optical demultiplexer 512. Of course, the converging lens 515 can be directly disposed on the detector group 304.
[0237] After the detector in the detector group 304 receives the light beam reflected by the optical splitter 512, the detector converts the optical signal into an electrical signal, which is transmitted to the transimpedance amplifier group 305 via bonding wires. The electrical signal is amplified by the transimpedance amplifier and then transmitted to the gold finger 301 via a signal line. The amplified electrical signal is transmitted to the host computer via the gold finger 301, thereby realizing the reception of multiple light paths.
[0238] In some embodiments, when the split light reflected by the output end face of the optical splitter 512 enters the detector, due to the difference in transmission media, the split light may be reflected at the photosensitive surface of the detector, and the reflected light may return to the optical splitter 512 along the original path. The reflected light returns to the optical collimator 511 via the optical splitter 512, causing the reflected light and the composite light transmitted by the internal optical fiber to crosstalk in the optical collimator 511.
[0239] To prevent optical signal crosstalk, the first light receiving component 510 further includes a support plate 513. The bottom surface of the support plate 513 is mounted on the back of the circuit board 300. The top surface of the support plate 513 is tilted, and the optical splitter 512 is mounted on the top surface of the support plate 513. This tilts the optical splitter 512 so that the distance between the optical splitter 512 and the back of the circuit board 300 gradually decreases along the left-right direction (the light receiving direction). This allows light reflected from the detector's photosensitive surface to return to the reflective surface of the optical splitter 512, where it is reflected again. Because the optical splitter 512 is tilted, the light reflected from the reflective surface forms an angle with the received light transmitted by the optical splitter 512, preventing crosstalk between the reflected and received light.
[0240] In some embodiments, the optical demultiplexer 512 may be an optical demultiplexer based on arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) technology to achieve optical demultiplexing and coupling effects. The tilt angle between the optical demultiplexer 512 and the circuit board 300 is 2°.
[0241] In some embodiments, the first light receiving component 510 may include a receiving shell 514, which is covered on the back of the circuit board 300. A cavity is formed between the receiving shell 514 and the back of the circuit board 300. Part of the optical splitter 512, the detector group 304 and the transimpedance amplifier group 305 are located in the cavity to protect the detector group 304 and the transimpedance amplifier group 305 through the receiving shell 514.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG35 , the receiving shell 514 includes a receiving cover plate 5140, a first receiving side plate 5141, a second receiving side plate 5142, and a third receiving side plate 5143.

The first receiving side plate 5141, the second receiving side plate 5142, and the third receiving side plate 5143 are respectively fixedly connected to the receiving cover plate 5140. The second receiving side plate 5142 is the right side of the receiving shell 514. The two ends of the second receiving side plate 5142 are respectively fixedly connected to the first receiving side plate 5141 and the third receiving side plate 5143. The first receiving side plate 5141 and the third receiving side plate 5143 are arranged opposite each other. In this way, the receiving cover plate 5140, the first receiving side plate 5141, the second receiving side plate 5142, and the third receiving side plate 5143 form a shell with an upper side and a left side opening.
[0243] When the receiving shell 514 is buckled onto the back of the circuit board 300, the first receiving side plate 5141, the second receiving side plate 5142 and the third receiving side plate 5143 are supported and connected to the back of the circuit board 300. The first receiving side plate 5141, the second receiving side plate 5142 and the third receiving side plate 5143 are respectively bonded to the back of the circuit board 300 through solid glue to achieve a fixed connection between the receiving shell 514 and the circuit board 300.
[0244] In some embodiments, a first positioning claw 5144 is formed on the first receiving side plate 5141. The first positioning claw 5144 extends from the inner side of the first receiving side plate 5141 toward the third receiving side plate 5143. The left side of the first positioning claw 5144 is flush with the left side of the first receiving side plate 5141. The first positioning claw 5144 is used to receive the housing 514 and position the connected circuit board 300.
[0245] In some embodiments, a second positioning claw 5145 is formed on the third receiving side plate 5143. The second positioning claw 5145 extends from the inner side of the third receiving side plate 5143 toward the first receiving side plate 5141. The left side of the second positioning claw 5145 is flush with the left side of the third receiving side plate 5143. The second positioning claw 5145 is used to receive the housing 514 and position the connected circuit board 300.

One path of composite light is input to the optical collimator 511 through the second optical fiber 721, and is transmitted to the optical splitter 512 through the optical collimator 511. The optical splitter 512 splits the one path of composite light into multiple paths of light. The multiple paths of light are reflected by the reflection surface of the optical splitter 512, and the reflected light is converged to the corresponding detector in the detector group 304 through the converging lens 515.

In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 38-40, the receiving fixing head 516 includes a fiber support portion 5161 and a fiber fixing portion 5162, and the end of the second optical fiber 721 extends from one end of the fiber support portion 5161 to the other end of the fiber support portion 5161, and the fiber support portion 5161 supports and connects the second optical fiber 721. The fiber fixing portion 5162 covers the connected fiber support portion 5161 to fix the end of the second optical fiber 721 through the fiber support portion 5161 and the fiber fixing portion 5162.
[0253] In some embodiments, a reflective end face 7211 is provided at the end of the optical fiber in the second optical fiber 721, and the reflective end face 7211 is located above the detector group 304. The reflective end face 7211 is used to reflect and change the transmission direction of the optical signal transmitted by the second optical fiber 721, so as to reflect the optical signal transmitted by the second optical fiber 721 to the corresponding detector in the detector group 304.
[0254] In some embodiments, the reflective end surface 7211 is an inclined surface, and the received optical signal transmitted by the second optical fiber 721 is totally reflected at the reflective end surface 7211.

[0262] In some embodiments, the second light receiving component 520 includes N detectors for receiving N optical signals. The structure of the second light receiving component 520 can be the same as or similar to that of the first light receiving component 510. The specific structure of the second light receiving component 520 can refer to the first light receiving component 510 provided in the above embodiment.

[0265] In some embodiments, the first connection layer 310 may be a metal layer attached to the top surface of the circuit board 300 , such as a copper layer, a gold layer, etc. attached to the top surface of the circuit board 300 .

The transmitting base 410 is bonded to the second connection layer 320 with glue to achieve a fixed connection between the transmitting base 410 and the circuit board 300. The second connection layer 320 facilitates strengthening the connection between the transmitting base 410 and the circuit board 300 to ensure the bonding strength between the transmitting base 410 and the circuit board 300. Exemplarily, the second connection layer 320 is a metal layer attached to the back of the circuit board 300, such as a copper layer or gold layer attached to the top surface of the circuit board 300.
[0269] In some embodiments, the second connection layer 320 is provided with a first groove 330, the bottom of which extends into the circuit board 300. The first groove 330 is used to separate the second connection layer 320. Exemplarily, the second connection layer 320 is provided with multiple first grooves 330, with the spacing between adjacent first grooves 330 being equal or similar. The provision of the first grooves 330 in the second connection layer 320 reduces the flatness of the second connection layer 320, thereby relatively reducing the adhesive force between the second connection layer 320 and the launch base 410, thereby minimizing damage to the circuit board 300 during repair and removal of the launch base 410.
[0270] In some embodiments, the width of the first grooves 330 and the intervals between adjacent first grooves 330 are equal to or similar to each other, so as to balance the bonding strength between the transmitting base 410 and the circuit board 300 .

The second groove 350 is used to balance the adhesion between the optical splitter 512, the support plate 513, or the receiving fixture 516 and the circuit board 300, effectively reducing damage to the circuit board 300 caused by rework and removal of the optical splitter 512, the support plate 513, or the receiving fixture 516. The second groove 350 may include multiple grooves, each arranged side by side and extending along the length of the circuit board 300.
[0276] In some embodiments, the third connection layer 340 includes a welding portion 341, which is located on a side of the third connection layer 340 away from the mounting hole 302. The welding portion 341 connects the detector group 304 and the transimpedance amplifier group 305 by welding.
[0277] In some embodiments, a blocking groove 360 may be provided on the third connecting layer 340. The blocking groove 360 is located at the edge of the welding portion 341 to prevent glue from overflowing toward the welding portion 341. Exemplarily, the blocking groove 360 extends from the edge of the welding portion 341 away from the welding portion 341, so that the blocking groove 360 extends to the edge of the third connecting layer 340, thereby preventing glue from overflowing and flowing toward areas outside the third connecting layer 340.
[0278] In some embodiments, the width of the blocking groove 360 is smaller than the width of the second cutout 350. For example, the blocking groove 360 is intermittently arranged around the side of the second cutout 350 and is spaced apart from the second cutout 350, thereby balancing the adhesive force between the third connecting layer 340 and the support plate 513, etc., and preventing glue from overflowing outside the third connecting layer 340.

[0353] In some embodiments, the fifth optical fiber adapter 740 is disposed laterally at the optical port of the optical module.
[0354] FIG66 is a second schematic diagram of a partial structure of another optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG66 , the optical transmission assembly 700 may include a sixth fiber optic adapter 750 and a seventh fiber optic adapter 760. The sixth fiber optic adapter 750 connects a portion of the first optical fiber 711 to the second optical fiber 721, thereby coupling an external optical fiber to the second optical fiber 721 through the sixth fiber optic adapter 750, and so on. The seventh fiber optic adapter 760 connects a portion of the first optical fiber 711 to the third optical fiber 731, thereby coupling an external optical fiber to the third optical fiber 731 through the seventh fiber optic adapter 760, and so on.
[0355] In some embodiments, the sixth fiber optic adapter 750 and the seventh fiber optic adapter 760 are arranged side by side at the optical port of the optical module. For example, the sixth fiber optic adapter 750 and the seventh fiber optic adapter 760 are arranged vertically to the optical port of the optical module, that is, the width direction of the sixth fiber optic adapter 750 and the seventh fiber optic adapter 760 are arranged along the height direction of the optical module.
[0356] In some embodiments, the optical fiber fixing component 800 may include a third gasket 860.

In some embodiments, the fifth fiber optic adapter 740 includes a clamping claw 741 and a fiber optic plug 742. Clamping claw 741 has a through-hole formed therein. Fiber optic plug 742 is inserted into one end of the through-hole, and the end of a first optical fiber 711 or the like is inserted into fiber optic plug 742. An external optical fiber is inserted into the other end of the through-hole and optically coupled to the first optical fiber 711 or the like.
[0359] In some embodiments, the fifth fiber optic adapter 740 may include a fiber optic connector 745 , the fiber optic ribbon in the optical module is inserted into the fiber optic connector 745 , and the fiber optic connector 745 is inserted into the fiber optic plug 742 to achieve coupling connection between the fiber optic ribbon and the fiber optic plug 742 through the fiber optic connector 745 .
[0360] In some embodiments, the fifth fiber optic adapter 740 may include a fixing member 743 and a pin 744. One end of the fixing member 743 contacts the end surface of the fiber optic plug 742, and the other end of the fixing member 743 is engaged and fixed with the claw 741, so that the fixing member 743 secures the fiber optic plug 742 within the claw 741. This fixing member 743 and pin 744 facilitate the insertion of the fiber optic plug 742 into the claw 741 and the positioning and connection of the external optical fiber to the fiber optic plug 742.
[0361] In some embodiments, a second elastic clip 7413 is provided at one end of the claw 741 facing the circuit board 300, and the second elastic clip 7413 extends from the right side 7412 of the claw 741 toward the direction of the circuit board 300. The second elastic clip 7413 is fixedly connected to the right side 7412, and the through hole 7411 passes through the right side 7412, so that the optical fiber plug 742 can be inserted into the claw 741 through the through hole 7411, and the optical fiber plug 742 is limited in the left and right directions by the right side 7412.
[0362] In some embodiments, the second elastic clip 7413 can rotate within a preset angle range, so that the second elastic clip 743 can be clamped inward to fix the optical fiber plug 742, and can also be bent outward to remove the optical fiber plug 742.
[0363] In some embodiments, the optical fiber plug 742 includes a core and a fixing portion, and the outer wall of the fixing portion protrudes from the outer wall of the core. When the optical fiber plug 742 is inserted into the through hole 7411 of the claw 741, the core is inserted into the through hole 7411, and the right side 7412 of the claw 741 abuts against the connecting surface of the core and the fixing portion to limit the optical fiber plug 742 so that the fixing portion is located outside the through hole 7411.
[0364] The right side of the fixing part contacts the left side of the fixing piece 743, that is, the core of the optical fiber plug 742 is inserted into the claw 741, and the fixing piece 743 is abutted against the right side of the fixing part, and the right end face of the fixing piece 743 is pressed against by the second elastic buckle 7413 to apply force to the fixing piece 743 and the optical fiber plug 742, so that the optical fiber plug 742 and the fixing piece 743 are fixed in the claw 741.
[0365] Figure 68 is a schematic diagram of a fixing member according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 68 , a fixing member 743 is formed with a clearance hole 7433 , through which a fiber optic connector 745 is inserted into a fiber optic plug 742 to connect the fiber optic ribbon to the fiber optic plug 742 .
[0366] In some embodiments, a pinhole is formed on the optical fiber plug 742, and the pinhole passes through the left and right sides of the optical fiber plug 742; a plurality of sockets are formed on the fixing member 743, each socket includes a first socket 7431 and a second socket 7432, the first socket 7431 is connected to the second socket 7432, and the diameter of the first socket 7431 is larger than the diameter of the second socket 7432.
[0367] Figure 69 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an insertion pin provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 69, the insertion pin 744 includes an insertion portion 7441, a connecting portion 7442, and an exposed portion 7443. The exposed portion 7443 is connected to the insertion portion 7441 via the connecting portion 7442. The diameter of the exposed portion 7443 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the insertion portion 7441, and the diameter of the insertion portion 7441 is greater than the diameter of the connecting portion 7442.
[0368] The diameter of the first insertion hole 7301 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the insertion part 7441 , the diameter of the second insertion hole 7302 is smaller than the diameter of the insertion part 7441 , and the diameter of the second insertion hole 7302 is greater than or equal to the diameter of the connection part 7442 .
[0369] In some embodiments, to facilitate the removal of the pin 744, the diameter of the exposed portion 7443 can be larger than the diameter of the first insertion hole 7431. Thus, when the pin 744 is inserted into the pinhole of the optical fiber plug 742 through the first insertion hole 7431, the exposed portion 7443 is exposed outside the fixing member 743, and the insertion portion 7441 is inserted into the pinhole through the first insertion hole 7431. At this time, the pin 744 can move left and right within the pinhole and the first insertion hole 7431. The fixing member 743 is then moved to snap the connecting portion 7442 into the second insertion hole 7432. At this time, the pin 744 cannot move left and right within the second insertion hole 7432, thereby securing the pin 744 to the fixing member 743.
[0370] In some embodiments, the fiber optic plug 742 may be an MT male connector, and the plug of the external optical fiber is a corresponding MT female connector, that is, after the pin 744 is fixed to the fiber optic plug 742, the end of the pin 744 facing away from the exposed portion 7443 protrudes from the fiber optic plug 742. In this way, when the external optical fiber is inserted into the claw 741, the protruding pin 744 is inserted into the jack of the external optical fiber to achieve the positioning connection between the fiber optic plug 742 and the external optical fiber.
[0371] In some embodiments, the structures of the sixth fiber optic adapter 750 and the seventh fiber optic adapter 760 are the same as or similar to the structure of the fifth fiber optic adapter 740. The structures of the sixth fiber optic adapter 750 and the seventh fiber optic adapter 760 can refer to the structure of the fifth fiber optic adapter 740 disclosed in the above embodiment.
[0372] Figure 70 is an exploded schematic diagram of an upper housing and a lower housing provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 70, the electrical port end of the upper housing 201 is provided with a first connecting boss 2031. The first connecting boss 2031 extends from the inner side of the upper cover 2011 toward the circuit board 300. A first connecting groove 2032 is formed on the first connecting boss 2031, and an opening is formed on the left side of the first connecting groove 2032. The electrical port end of the lower housing 202 is provided with a second connecting boss 2033. The second connecting boss 2033 extends from the inner side of the bottom plate 2021 toward the circuit board 300. A second connecting groove 2034 is formed on the second connecting boss 2033, and an opening is formed on the left side of the second connecting groove 2034.
[0373] In some embodiments, a plurality of assembly grooves are correspondingly provided at the optical port end of the upper housing 201 and the optical port end of the lower housing 202 so as to fix the fifth optical fiber adapter 740 and the like at the optical port of the optical module through the assembly grooves.
[0374] Figure 71 is a partial cross-sectional view of an optical module provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 71, a first shielding strip 205 is provided on the front of the circuit board 300. The first shielding strip 205 is arranged along the width direction of the circuit board 300 and is located between the gold finger 301 and the light emitting component 400. A second shielding strip 206 is provided on the back of the circuit board 300. The second shielding strip 206 is arranged along the width direction of the circuit board 300 and is located between the gold finger 301 and the light receiving component.
[0375] When the circuit board 300 is installed in the lower housing 202, the second shielding strip 206 is embedded in the second connecting groove 2034, thereby achieving a sealed assembly between the lower housing 202 and the circuit board 300 at the electrical port. When the upper housing 201 is placed on the lower housing 202, the first shielding strip 205 is embedded in the first connecting groove 2032, thereby achieving a sealed assembly between the upper housing 201 and the circuit board 300 at the electrical port. The first shielding strip 205 and the second shielding strip 206 on the circuit board 300 improve the EMI shielding effect at the electrical port of the optical module. However, electromagnetic waves within the optical module can escape through the optical port of the optical module, affecting the EMI shielding effect of the optical module.
[0376] FIG72 is a partial schematic diagram of another optical module according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG72 , a wire harness 380 is provided in the optical module 200 , and the wire harness 380 is used to harness the second optical fiber 721 and the third optical fiber 731 .
[0377] In some embodiments, the wiring harness 380 is connected to the circuit board 300 , and the wiring harness 380 binds the second optical fiber 721 to one side of the transmitting base 410 and binds the third optical fiber 731 to the other side of the transmitting base 410 .
[0378] Figure 73 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a cable tie provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 74 is a schematic diagram of the assembly of a cable tie and a circuit board provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 73 and 74, the cable tie 380 includes a bridging plate 381, a first support arm 382, and a second support arm 383. The two ends of the bridging plate 381 are respectively connected to the first support arm 382 and the second support arm 383. The bridging plate 381 is located below the circuit board 300. The top surfaces of the first support arm 382 and the second support arm 383 are bonded to the back surface of the circuit board 300 to secure the cable tie 380 to the back surface of the circuit board 300.
[0379] In some embodiments, a support plate 384 is formed on the bridging plate 381, and the support plate 384 extends from the top surface of the bridging plate 381 toward the front direction of the circuit board 300, and the support plate 384 is located between the first support arm 382 and the second support arm 383; a first limiting arm 385 and a second limiting arm 386 are formed on the support plate 384, and the two ends of the support plate 384 are respectively connected to the first limiting arm 385 and the second limiting arm 386, and the first limiting arm 385 and the second limiting arm 386 extend from the support plate 384 toward the upper shell 201, and the distance between the first limiting arm 385 and the second limiting arm 386 is smaller than the distance between the first support arm 382 and the second support arm 383, so that there is a gap between the first limiting arm 385 and the first support arm 382, and there is a gap between the second limiting arm 386 and the second support arm 383. The support plate 384 can strengthen the connection between the first limiting arm 385 and the second limiting arm 386 and the bridging plate 381 respectively. The support plate 384 can also limit and support the first optical fiber 711, reduce the bending angle of the first optical fiber 711, and thus effectively avoid damage to the first optical fiber 711 caused by excessive bending.
[0380] The support plate 384 , the first limiting arm 385 and the second limiting arm 386 are embedded in the mounting hole 302 , and the optical fiber connected to the light emitting component 400 is placed on the support plate 384 , and the optical fiber is supported by the support plate 384 .
[0381] The first limiting arm 385 abuts against the front side wall of the mounting hole 302, and the second limiting arm 386 abuts against the rear side wall of the mounting hole 302. The first limiting arm 385 and the second limiting arm 386 limit and restrain the second optical fiber 721 and the third optical fiber 731. The first limiting arm 385 and the second limiting arm 386 limit the second optical fiber 721 and the third optical fiber 731 in the front, back, left and right directions to protect the second optical fiber 721 and the third optical fiber 731 and reduce the risk of the second optical fiber 721 and the third optical fiber 731 being bent or squeezed.
[0382] In some embodiments, a first hook 387 is formed on the top surface of the first limiting arm 385, and the first hook 387 protrudes toward the first support arm 382. A second hook 388 is formed on the top surface of the second limiting arm 386, and the second hook 388 protrudes toward the second support arm 383. When the cable tie 380 is inserted into the mounting hole 302 from bottom to top, the first hook 387 and the second hook 388 engage with the front surface of the circuit board 300 to limit the vertical position of the cable tie 380.
[0383] Figure 75 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an upper housing according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, and Figure 76 is an exploded schematic diagram of an upper housing according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 75 and 76, a heat sink 207 is provided on the top of the upper housing 201. Heat sink 207 increases the heat dissipation area of the upper cover 2011.
[0384] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation component 207 includes heat dissipation fins 2072 and a heat dissipation cover plate 2071. The heat dissipation fins 2072 are connected to the heat dissipation cover plate 2071, and the bottom of the heat dissipation fins 2072 is welded to the top of the upper housing 201. The heat dissipation fins 2072 are long, ridge-shaped protrusions formed on the bottom surface of the heat dissipation cover plate 2071. Exemplarily, the heat dissipation component 207 includes multiple heat dissipation fins 2072. The heat dissipation fins 2072 extend along the length of the upper housing 201 and, together with the heat dissipation cover plate 2071, form multiple heat dissipation channels. The heat dissipation channels are open at both ends to allow air to flow in and out of the heat dissipation channels.
[0385] In some embodiments, the heat sink fins 2072 and the heat sink cover 2071 can be integrally formed, while the heat sink fins 2072 and the upper housing 201 are not integrally formed. This allows the heat sink 207 to effectively improve the heat dissipation of the upper housing 201, facilitates the production of the heat sink 207, and ensures a flat top surface for the optical module. The bottom of the heat sink fins 2072 is connected to the top of the upper housing 201, and the heat sink cover 2071 is disposed on top of the heat sink fins 2072. This arrangement of heat sink fins on the top of the upper housing 201 not only increases the heat dissipation area at the top of the upper housing 201, but also forms a heat dissipation channel that defines the direction of airflow, resulting in higher heat dissipation efficiency for the upper housing 201. Of course, in the disclosed embodiments, the heat sink fins 2072 can be integrally formed with the upper housing 201.
[0386] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation fins 2072 are straight fins, extending from one end of the heat dissipation cover plate 2071 to the other end of the heat dissipation cover plate 2071. Exemplarily, the length of the heat dissipation cover plate 2071 is greater than half the total length of the upper housing 201. Of course, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the length of the heat dissipation cover plate 2071 is less than or equal to half the total length of the upper housing 201.
[0387] In some embodiments, a first limiting plate 2017 is provided on one side of the top of the upper housing 201, and the first limiting plate 2017 is connected to the heat dissipation component 207 in a limiting manner. For example, the first limiting plate 2017 is connected to one side of the heat dissipation cover plate 2071 in a limiting manner.
[0388] In some embodiments, a second limiting plate 2018 is provided on the other side of the top of the upper housing 201, and the second limiting plate 2018 is limitedly connected to the heat dissipation component 207. Exemplarily, the second limiting plate 2018 is limitedly connected to the other side of the heat dissipation cover plate 2071.
[0389] In some embodiments, the upper housing 201 may include an inclined plate 2016 located at the optical port end of the upper housing 201 and connected to the upper cover 2011. The inclined plate 2016 is tilted toward the lower housing 202, with one end of the inclined plate 2016 being higher than the other end. The inclined plate 2016 can adjust the height of various locations at the optical port end of the upper housing 201 and can also guide air flow, ensuring more efficient airflow to the heat sink 207.
[0390] In some embodiments, the other end of the inclined plate 2016 extends to the channel opening of the heat dissipation channel on the heat dissipation component 207 , and the top surface of the inclined plate 2016 is inclined to allow air to flow into the heat dissipation channel of the heat dissipation component 207 more effectively.
[0391] In some embodiments, the bottom of one end of the first limiting plate 2017 is connected to one side of the inclined plate 2016, and the bottom of one end of the second limiting plate 2018 is connected to the other side of the inclined plate 2016. Therefore, the first limiting plate 2017 and the second limiting plate 2018 can form a guide channel at the inclined plate 2016 to guide air flow, so that the air flow can flow along the top surface of the inclined plate 2016 to the heat dissipation channel of the heat dissipation component 207.
[0392] FIG77 is an exploded schematic diagram of another upper housing according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.
