[0068] Some embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present disclosure, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments provided in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0069] Unless otherwise required by the context, throughout the specification and claims, the term "comprising" is interpreted to mean "including, but not limited to"; the terms "first", "second", and the like do not imply relative importance or an upper limit on the number; the term "multiple" means two or more; the term "connected" should be interpreted broadly, for example, "connected" can be fixedly connected, or detachably connected, or integrated, can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; the use of the terms "adapted to" or "configured to" means open and inclusive language, which does not exclude devices adapted or configured to perform additional tasks or steps; the terms "parallel", "vertical", "same", "consistent", "flush", and the like are not limited to absolute mathematical relationships, but also include acceptable error ranges generated in practice, and differences formed based on the same design concept but due to manufacturing reasons.
[0070] In optical communication technology, in order to establish information transmission between information processing devices, information needs to be loaded onto light, and the transmission of information is realized by the propagation of light. Here, the light loaded with information is an optical signal. The optical signal can reduce the loss of optical power when transmitted in the information transmission device, so as to realize high-speed, long-distance, and low-cost information transmission. The signal that can be recognized and processed by the information processing device is an electrical signal. The information processing device usually includes an optical network unit (ONU), a gateway, a router, a switch, a mobile phone, a computer, a server, a tablet computer, a television, etc., and the information transmission device usually includes an optical fiber and an optical waveguide, etc.
[0071] The optical module can realize mutual conversion between optical signals and electrical signals between the information processing device and the information transmission device. For example, at least one of the optical signal input end or the optical signal output end of the optical module is connected with an optical fiber, and at least one of the electrical signal input end or the electrical signal output end of the optical module is connected with an optical network terminal; a first optical signal from the optical fiber is transmitted to the optical module, the optical module 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, the optical module converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal, and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber. Since information transmission can be performed between multiple information processing devices through electrical signals, at least one of the multiple information processing devices needs to be directly connected with the optical module, without the need for all the information processing devices to be directly connected with the optical module. Here, the information processing device directly connected with the optical module is referred to as a host computer of the optical module. In addition, the optical signal input end or the optical signal output end of the optical module can be referred to as an optical port, and the electrical signal input end or the electrical signal output end of the optical module can be referred to as an electrical port.
[0072] FIG. 1 is a partial structure diagram of an optical communication system according to some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 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.
[0073] One end of the optical fiber 101 extends towards the remote information processing device 1000, and the other end of the optical fiber 101 is connected with the optical module 200 through the optical port of the optical module 200. The optical signal can be totally reflected in the optical fiber 101, and the propagation of the optical signal in the totally reflected direction can almost maintain the original optical power. The optical signal is totally reflected multiple times in the optical fiber 101 to transmit the optical signal from the remote information processing device 1000 to the optical module 200, or to transmit the optical signal from the optical module 200 to the remote information processing device 1000, thereby realizing long-distance and low-power-loss information transmission.
[0074] The optical communication system can include one or more optical fibers 101, and the optical fiber 101 can be detachably connected with the optical module 200 or fixedly connected. The host computer 100 is configured to provide a data signal to the optical module 200, or receive a data signal from the optical module 200, or monitor or control the working state of the optical module 200.
[0075] The host computer 100 includes a housing substantially in the shape of a rectangular cuboid, and an optical module interface 102 disposed on the housing. The optical module interface 102 is configured to access the optical module 200, so as to establish a one-way or two-way electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and the optical module 200.
[0076] The host computer 100 further comprises an external electrical interface configured to access an electrical signal network. For example, the external electrical interface comprises a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface or a network cable interface 104 configured to access a network cable 103 to establish a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and 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 to establish an electrical signal connection between the local information processing device 2000 and the host computer 100 through 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 through the network cable 103, and the host computer 100 generates a second electrical signal according to the third electrical signal. The second electrical signal from the host computer 100 is transmitted to the optical module 200, and 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 transmitted in the optical fiber 101 to the remote information processing device 1000. For example, the 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 according to the first electrical signal, and the fourth electrical signal is transmitted to the local information processing device 2000. It should be noted that the optical module is a tool for converting optical signals and electrical signals, and the information does not change in the conversion process of the optical signals and the electrical signals, and the encoding and decoding mode of the information can change.
[0077] In addition to the optical network terminal, the host computer 100 further comprises an optical line terminal (OLT), an optical network terminal (ONT), or a data center server, etc.
[0078] FIG. 2 is a partial structure diagram of a host computer according to some embodiments. In order to clearly show the connection relationship between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100, FIG. 2 only shows the structure of the host computer 100 related to the optical module 200. As shown in FIG. 2, the host computer 100 further comprises a PCB circuit board 105 arranged in the shell, a cage 106 arranged on the surface of the PCB circuit board 105, a heat sink 107 arranged on the cage 106, and an electrical connector arranged inside the cage 106. The electrical connector is configured to access the electrical port of the optical module 200; the heat sink 107 has a fin or other protruding structure to increase the heat dissipation area.
[0079] The optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106 of the host computer 100, and the optical module 200 is fixed by the cage 106. The heat generated by the optical module 200 is conducted to the cage 106, and then diffused through the heat sink 107. After the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the electrical port of the optical module 200 is connected to the electrical connector inside the cage 106, so that the optical module 200 and the host computer 100 establish a bidirectional electrical signal connection. In addition, the optical port of the optical module 200 is connected to the optical fiber 101, so that the optical module 200 and the optical fiber 101 establish a bidirectional optical signal connection.
[0080] FIG. 3 is a structural diagram of an optical module according to some embodiments, and FIG. 4 is an exploded view of an optical module according to some embodiments. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the optical module 200 includes a shell, a circuit board 300 arranged in the shell, an optical transmitting component 400, and an optical receiving component 500. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and in some embodiments, the optical module 200 includes one of the optical transmitting component 400 and the optical receiving component 500.
[0081] The shell includes an upper shell 201 and a lower shell 202. The upper shell 201 is covered on the lower shell 202 to form the above-mentioned shell having two openings 204 and 205. The outer contour of the shell generally presents a square body.
[0082] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a bottom plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 arranged perpendicularly to the bottom plate 2021 on both sides of the bottom plate 2021. The upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011, and the cover plate 2011 is covered on the two lower side plates 2022 of the lower shell 202 to form the above-mentioned shell.
[0083] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a bottom plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 arranged perpendicularly to the bottom plate 2021 on both sides of the bottom plate 2021. The upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011 and two upper side plates arranged perpendicularly to the cover plate 2011 on both sides of the cover plate 2011. The two upper side plates and the two lower side plates 2022 are combined to achieve that the upper shell 201 is covered on the lower shell 202.
[0084] The direction of the line connecting the two openings 204 and 205 can be consistent with the length direction of the optical module 200, or can be inconsistent with the length direction of the optical module 200. For example, the opening 204 is located at the end of the optical module 200 (the right end of FIG. 3), and the opening 205 is also located at the end of the optical module 200 (the left end of FIG. 3). Alternatively, the opening 204 is located at the end of the optical module 200, and the opening 205 is located at the side of the optical module 200. The opening 204 is an electrical port, and the gold fingers of the circuit board 300 extend from the electrical port and are inserted into the electrical connector of the host computer 100; the opening 205 is an optical port configured to access the external optical fiber 101, so that the optical fiber 101 is connected to the optical transmitting component 400 and the optical receiving component 500 in the optical module 200.
[0085] The assembly of the upper shell 201 and the lower shell 202 facilitates the installation of the circuit board 300, the optical transmitting component 400, and the optical receiving component 500 into the shells, and the shells can protect the above-mentioned devices. In addition, when the circuit board 300, the optical transmitting component 400, and the optical receiving component 500 are assembled, the positioning components, heat dissipation components, and electromagnetic shielding components of these devices can be easily arranged, which is beneficial for automated production.
[0086] In some embodiments, the upper shell 201 and the lower shell 202 are made of metal materials, which is beneficial for electromagnetic shielding and heat dissipation.
[0087] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 further includes an unlocking component 600 located outside the shell of the optical module 200. The unlocking component 600 is configured to achieve fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer, or to release the fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer.
[0088] For example, the unlocking component 600 is located outside the two lower side plates 2022 of the lower shell 202, and includes a clamping component matched with the cage 106 of the host computer 100. When the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the clamping component of the unlocking component 600 fixes the optical module 200 in the cage 106; when the unlocking component 600 is pulled, the clamping component of the unlocking component 600 moves, thereby changing the connection relationship between the clamping component and the host computer, to release the fixation between the optical module 200 and the host computer, so that the optical module 200 can be pulled out of the cage 106.
[0089] The circuit board 300 includes circuit traces, electronic components, and chips, etc. The electronic components and chips are connected according to circuit design through the circuit traces to realize power supply, electrical signal transmission, and grounding, etc. The electronic components may, for example, include capacitors, resistors, transistors, and Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MOSFETs). The chips may, for example, include Microcontroller Units (MCUs), laser drive chips, Transimpedance Amplifiers (TIAs), Limiting Amplifiers (LIAs), Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) chips, power management chips, and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) chips.
[0090] The circuit board 300 is generally a rigid circuit board. Due to its relatively hard material, the rigid circuit board can also realize a bearing function, such as stably bearing 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.
[0091] The circuit board 300 also includes a gold finger formed on the surface of its end portion. The gold finger is composed of a plurality of pins independent of each other. The circuit board 300 is inserted into the cage 106, and the gold finger is in conduction with the electrical connector in the cage 106. The gold finger can be provided only on the surface (e.g., the upper surface shown in FIG. 4) of one side of the circuit board 300, or can be provided on the surfaces of both upper and lower sides of the circuit board 300 to provide a larger number of pins, thereby adapting to occasions requiring a large number of pins. The gold finger is configured to establish electrical connection with the host computer to realize power supply, grounding, Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) signal transmission, data signal transmission, etc. Of course, flexible circuit boards are also used in some optical modules. The flexible circuit board is generally used in cooperation with the rigid circuit board to supplement the rigid circuit board.
[0092] At least one of the optical transmitting component 400 or the optical receiving component 500 is located on the side of the circuit board 300 away from the gold finger.
[0093] In some embodiments, the optical transmitting component 400 and the optical receiving component 500 are physically separated from the circuit board 300, and then are electrically connected to the circuit board 300 through corresponding flexible circuit boards or electrical connectors, respectively.
[0094] In some embodiments, at least one of the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500 can be disposed directly on the circuit board 300. For example, at least one of the light emitting component 400 or the light receiving component 500 can be disposed on a surface of the circuit board 300 or a side of the circuit board 300.
[0095] The light emitting component and the light receiving component constitute a light transceiver component, and the light transceiver component is electrically connected to the circuit board 300. The light emitting component is a transmitting end of the light transceiver component, and the light receiving component is a receiving end of the light transceiver component. Both the transmitting end of the light transceiver component and the receiving end of the light transceiver component are electrically connected to the circuit board 300.
[0096] In some embodiments, one end of the light receiving component 500 can be connected to the light emitting component 400. For example, a light input end of the light receiving component 500 can be connected to a light output end of the light emitting component 400.
[0097] In some embodiments, the light receiving component 500 can receive a plurality of wavelengths of received light signals. For example, the light receiving component 500 receives three wavelengths of received light signals, and the three wavelengths of received light signals have different rates, such as a first wavelength light signal, a second wavelength light signal, and a third wavelength light signal having different rates. The first wavelength light signal includes a first wavelength of received light signal, the second wavelength light signal includes a second wavelength of received light signal, and the third wavelength light signal includes a third wavelength of received light signal.
[0098] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the first wavelength light signal can be 1284-1288 nm, or 1290-1330 nm, or 1260-1280 nm.
[0099] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the second wavelength light signal can be 1284-1288 nm, or 1290-1330 nm, or 1260-1280 nm.
[0100] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the third wavelength light signal can be 1284-1288 nm, or 1290-1330 nm, or 1260-1280 nm.
[0101] In some embodiments, the light emitting component 400 can generate a plurality of wavelengths of light signals. The plurality of wavelengths of light signals can be combined into one beam of emitted light signal, so that the number of emitted light signals emitted by the light emitting component 400 is one beam. For example, the light emitting component 400 can generate three wavelengths of light signals, and the three wavelengths of light signals have different rates, such as a fourth wavelength light signal, a fifth wavelength light signal, and a sixth wavelength light signal having different rates.
[0102] In some embodiments, the fourth wavelength optical signal has a wavelength range of 1340-1344 nm, such as a wavelength of 1342 nm; the fifth wavelength optical signal has a wavelength range of 1575-1580 nm, such as a wavelength of 1577 nm; and the sixth wavelength optical signal has a wavelength range of 1480-1500 nm, such as a wavelength of 1490 nm.
[0103] As shown in FIG. 4, in some embodiments, the housing of the optical module 200 can be provided with a fiber adapter 700. One end of the fiber adapter 700 can be connected to the other end of the light receiving component 500, so that the externally input received optical signal is input to the light receiving component 500 through the fiber adapter 700. For example, one end of the fiber adapter 700 can be connected to the light input / output end of the light receiving component 500.
[0104] In some embodiments, the light input end of the light receiving component 500 and the light input / output end of the light receiving component 500 can be arranged at both ends of the light receiving component 500 along the length direction of the light receiving component 500.
[0105] One end of the light receiving component 500 can be connected to the light emitting component 400, and the other end of the light receiving component 500 can be connected to one end of the fiber adapter 700. The light emitting direction of the light emitting component 400 is towards the fiber adapter 700, so that the emitted optical signal emitted by the light emitting component 400 is first transmitted into the light receiving component 500, then transmitted to the fiber adapter 700 through the light receiving component 500, and finally output through the fiber adapter 700. The light receiving component 500 and the light emitting component 400 share the fiber adapter 700, and thus the uplink optical signal and the downlink optical signal of the optical module share the optical fiber 101.
[0106] In some embodiments, among the optical signals incident to the light receiving component 500, the number of light beams of the emitted optical signal (which can be referred to as an emitted light beam) emitted by the light emitting component 400 is less than the number of light beams of the received optical signal (which can be referred to as a received light beam) externally input. For example, among the optical signals incident to the light receiving component 500, the number of light beams of the emitted optical signal (i.e., the emitted light beam) emitted by the light emitting component 400 is at least two less than the number of light beams of the received optical signal (i.e., the received light beam) externally input, so as to reduce the difficulty of light splitting of the optical signal in the light receiving component 500.

[0129] The second lens can protrude from the receiving cap or not. When the second lens does not protrude from the receiving cap, a 0° filter can be directly attached to the top of the light receiving component. The 0° filter can allow a certain specific wavelength of light signal to pass through to reduce the incidence of other wavelengths of light signal to the light receiving chip of the light receiving component. Illustratively, the top of the second light receiving component 520 is directly attached with a second filter 5178, which is a 0° filter and can allow the second wavelength of light signal to pass through.

The first connecting hole 5111 can be connected with the fiber adapter 700, so that the fiber adapter 700 is connected with the first cavity.

The receiving tube cap 533 is arranged on the top of the receiving tube base 532 to form a receiving cavity in which a light receiving chip is arranged. The receiving tube pin 531 extends upward from the bottom of the receiving tube base 532 to protrude from the top of the receiving tube base 532 and is connected with the light receiving chip and the like in the receiving cavity. The sixth lens 534 is arranged on the receiving tube cap 533.
[0143] In some embodiments, the top of the first light receiving assembly 530 is provided with a bracket 550, and the first filter 5177 is attached to the bracket 550.
[0144] FIG. 13 is a structural diagram of a bracket 1, and FIG. 14 is a structural diagram of a bracket 2, according to some embodiments. As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, in some embodiments, the bracket 550 can include a first fixed portion 551. The bottom surface of the first fixed portion 551 can be in contact with the outer top surface of the receiving cap 533, so that the first fixed portion 551 is fixedly connected with the receiving cap 533.
[0145] In some embodiments, the bracket 550 can include a second fixed portion 552. The bottom surface of the second fixed portion 552 can be in contact with the top surface of the first fixed portion 551, so that the second fixed portion 552 is fixedly connected with the first fixed portion 551. The top surface of the second fixed portion 552 can be attached to the first filter 5177.
[0146] In some embodiments, the bracket 550 can include an enclosing portion 553. The inner surface of the enclosing portion 553 is in contact with the outer surface of the second fixed portion 552, so that the enclosing portion 553 is fixedly connected with the second fixed portion 552.
[0147] In some embodiments, the height dimension of the enclosing portion 553 is greater than the height dimension of the second fixed portion 552, so as to enclose the first filter 5177.
[0148] In some embodiments, the bracket 500 has a first light passing hole 554. The first light passing hole 554 can extend from the first fixed portion 551 to the second fixed portion 552, so that the first light passing hole 554 can pass through the bracket 500, and thus the light signal of the first cavity can be incident on the first light receiving assembly 530 through the first light passing hole 554.
[0149] In some embodiments, the first filter 5177 is disposed at the port of the first light passing hole 554, so as to block the port of the first light passing hole 554, and thus the light signal (i.e., the third wavelength light signal) passing through the first filter 5177 can be incident on the first light receiving assembly 530 through the first light passing hole 554. For example, the size of the first filter 5177 is greater than the size of the first light passing hole 554.
[0150] In some embodiments, the size of the first light passing hole 554 is greater than or equal to the size of the sixth lens 534, so that the first light passing hole 554 can accommodate the sixth lens 534, and thus the light signal of the first cavity can be coupled into the light receiving chip of the first light receiving assembly 530 through the sixth lens 534 in the first light passing hole 554.
[0151] The first light hole 554 can accommodate the sixth lens 534, and the first filter 5177 is disposed on the first light hole 554, so that the optical signal (i.e., the third wavelength optical signal) of the first filter 5177 is coupled into the light receiving chip of the first light receiving assembly 530 through the sixth lens 534 in the first light hole 554.
[0152] FIG. 15 is an exploded view of a first cavity according to some embodiments, and FIG. 16 is an exploded view of a first housing and a light receiving assembly according to some embodiments. As shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, in some embodiments, the first cavity can include a first cover plate 515.
[0153] In some embodiments, the first cavity can include a first housing 510. The first cover plate 515 can be covered on the first housing 510 to form the first cavity. The light receiving assembly 517 can be disposed in the first cavity. The light receiving assembly 517 can transmit the emitted optical signal to the fiber adapter 700, or can split the received optical signal transmitted by the fiber adapter 700 to the first cavity and then make the split optical signal incident on the corresponding light receiving assembly.
[0154] FIG. 17 is an optical path diagram of a light receiving assembly according to some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 17, in some embodiments, the light receiving assembly 517 can include a fourth lens 5171. The fourth lens 5171 is used to collimate / converge the optical signal. For example, the received optical signal transmitted by the first cavity to the fiber adapter 700 is converged by the fourth lens 5171, and the optical signal transmitted by the fiber adapter 700 to the first cavity is collimated by the fourth lens 5171.
[0155] In some embodiments, the light receiving assembly 517 can include a wave splitting assembly 5172. The first end of the wave splitting assembly 5172 can be disposed corresponding to the first end of the light receiving component, and the second end of the wave splitting assembly 5172 can be disposed corresponding to the second end of the light receiving component, so that the wave splitting assembly 5172 can be disposed along the length direction of the light receiving component 500.
[0156] The wave splitting assembly 5172 can be disposed along the length direction of the light receiving component 500, i.e., the wave splitting assembly 5172 can be disposed along the length direction of the first housing 510, so as to reduce the width dimension of the first housing 510, and further reduce the width dimension of the light receiving component 500. When the wave splitting assembly 5172 is disposed along the length direction of the first housing 510, the width dimension of the first housing 510 required to accommodate the wave splitting assembly 5172 can be reduced to meet the demand. Since the length dimension of the receiving pin of the light receiving assembly is small, the width dimension of the first housing 510 is reduced, and the width dimension of the light receiving component 500 is also reduced.
[0157] In some embodiments, the light receiving component 500 can further include a fourth lens 5171 and a wavelength division component 5172. The fourth lens 5171 can be disposed between the light emitting component 400 and the wavelength division component 5172, and the wavelength division component 5172 can be disposed along the length direction of the light receiving component 500, so that the wavelength division component 5172 can transmit the emitted light signal emitted by the light emitting component 400 to the fourth lens 5171. The wavelength division component 5172 can divide the light signal collimated by the fourth lens 5171 by wavelength. For example, the wavelength division component 5172 can divide a light signal including a first wavelength, a second wavelength and a third wavelength into a first wavelength light signal, a second wavelength light signal and a third wavelength light signal by wavelength.
[0158] The wavelength division component 5172 can transmit the emitted light signal (i.e., the emitted light beam) emitted by the light emitting component 400 to the fourth lens 5171, and can divide the received light signal (i.e., the received light beam) collimated by the fourth lens 5171 by wavelength. The distance between the emitted light beam and the received light beam in the width direction of the first housing 510 can be reduced, and thus the width dimension of the light receiving component 500 can be reduced.
[0159] In some embodiments, the first end of the wavelength division component 5172 has a receiving light entrance, and the second end of the wavelength division component 5172 has an emitted light entrance. The emitted light signal emitted by the light emitting component 400 is incident to the emitted light entrance of the second end of the wavelength division component 5172 and is emitted through the receiving light entrance of the first end of the wavelength division component 5172. The received light signal including the first wavelength, the second wavelength and the third wavelength emitted by the fiber adapter 700 is incident to the receiving light entrance of the first end of the wavelength division component 5172 and is reflected through the emitted light entrance of the second end of the wavelength division component 5172. The optical path of the emitted light signal and the optical path of the received light signal coincide in the width direction of the light receiving component 500, so that the width dimension of the light receiving component 500 can be reduced.
[0160] In some embodiments, the first end of the wavelength division component 5172 has a first light exit, and the second end of the wavelength division component 5172 has a second light exit and a third light exit. The received light signal reflected through the emitted light entrance of the second end of the wavelength division component 5172 is divided into the first wavelength light signal, the second wavelength light signal and the third wavelength light signal. The first wavelength light signal is emitted through the second light exit of the second end of the wavelength division component 5172, the third wavelength light signal is emitted through the first light exit of the first end of the wavelength division component 5172, and the third wavelength light signal is emitted through the third light exit of the second end of the wavelength division component 5172.
[0161] In some embodiments, the first end of the wavelength division component 5172 and the second end of the wavelength division component 5172 are disposed in parallel, so that the emitted light signal incident to the second end of the wavelength division component 5172 and the emitted light signal emitted through the first end of the wavelength division component 5172 are parallel to each other.
[0162] In some embodiments, the first end of the wave separation assembly 5172 has a tilt angle in a first preset range, so that the received light signal including the first wavelength, the second wavelength and the third wavelength incident to the wave separation assembly 5172 can be separated into the first wavelength light signal, the second wavelength light signal and the third wavelength light signal by the wave separation assembly 5172. For example, the first preset range is 8°±1°.
[0163] In some embodiments, the wave separation assembly 5172 can include a substrate 51721. The substrate 51721 is a block substrate. The first end surface of the substrate 51721 is arranged corresponding to the first end of the light receiving component 500, and the second end surface of the substrate 51721 is arranged corresponding to the second end of the light receiving component 500, so that the substrate 51721 is arranged along the length direction of the light receiving component 500. The first end surface of the substrate 51721 can be directed towards the fourth lens 5171. The second end surface of the substrate 51721 can be directed towards the second connecting hole 5131.
[0164] The first end surface of the substrate 51721 and the second end surface of the substrate 51721 are arranged in parallel, so that the light signal incident to the substrate 51721 and the light signal emitted through the substrate 51721 are parallel to each other.
[0165] The first end surface of the substrate 51721 can be directed towards the fourth lens 5171, and the second end surface of the substrate 51721 can be directed towards the second connecting hole 5131, so that the substrate 51721 can be arranged along the horizontal direction of the first cavity.
[0166] In some embodiments, the wave separation assembly 5172 can include a first wave plate 51722. The first wave plate 51722 can be arranged on the first end surface of the substrate 51721.

The first wave plate 51722 is the receiving light entrance of the first end of the wave separation assembly 5172. The first wave plate 51722 can allow the emitted light signal and the received light signal to pass through.
[0167] The central axis of the first wave plate 51722 and the central axis of the fourth lens 5171 can coincide, so that the received light signal collimated by the fourth lens 5171 is incident to the first wave plate 51722, and the emitted light signal of the first wave plate 51722 can be focused and coupled by the fourth lens 5171.
[0168] In some embodiments, the wave separation assembly 5172 can include a second wave plate 51723. The second wave plate 51723 can be arranged on the first end surface of the substrate 51721. One side of the second wave plate 51723 can be connected with the first wave plate 51722. The second wave plate 51723 can allow the received light signal to be reflected.
[0169] In some embodiments, the wave splitting component 5172 can include a third wave plate 51724. The third wave plate 51724 can be disposed on the first end surface of the substrate 51721. One side of the third wave plate 51724 can be connected with the other side of the second wave plate 51723. The third wave plate 51724 is the first light exit of the first end of the wave splitting component 5172.
[0170] In some embodiments, the third wave plate 51724 can be a low-pass wave plate, which can allow low-frequency signals to pass through and block high-frequency signals. For example, the third wave plate 51724 can allow the third-wavelength light signal to be transmitted and can also allow the second-wavelength light signal to be reflected.
[0171] In some embodiments, the wave splitting component 5172 can include a fourth wave plate 51725. The fourth wave plate 51725 can be disposed on the second end surface of the substrate 51721. The fourth wave plate 51725 can be disposed opposite to the first wave plate 51722. The fourth wave plate 51725 can be located between the substrate 51721 and the second connecting hole 5131. The fourth wave plate 51725 is the light entrance of the second end of the wave splitting component 5172. The fourth wave plate 51725 can allow the received light signal to be reflected and can also allow the emitted light signal to be transmitted.
[0172] The central axis of the fourth wave plate 51725 can coincide with the central axis of the second connecting hole 5131, so that the emitted light signal incident to the first cavity through the second connecting hole 5131 is incident to the fourth wave plate 51725.
[0173] In some embodiments, the wave splitting component 5172 can include a fifth wave plate 51726. The fifth wave plate 51726 can be disposed on the second end surface of the substrate 51721. The fifth wave plate 51726 can be disposed opposite to the second wave plate 51723. One side of the fifth wave plate 51726 can be connected with the fourth wave plate 51725. The fifth wave plate 51726 is the second light exit of the second end of the wave splitting component 5172.
[0174] In some embodiments, the fifth wave plate 51726 can be a band-pass wave plate, which can allow signals within a certain frequency range to pass through and block signals of other frequencies. For example, the fifth wave plate 51726 can allow the first-wavelength light signal to be transmitted and can also allow the third-wavelength light signal and the second-wavelength light signal to be reflected.
[0175] In some embodiments, the wave splitting component 5172 can include a sixth wave plate 51727. The sixth wave plate 51727 can be disposed on the second end surface of the substrate 51721. The sixth wave plate 51727 can be disposed opposite to the third wave plate 51724. The sixth wave plate 51727 can be connected with the other side of the fifth wave plate 51726. The sixth wave plate 51727 is the third light exit of the second end of the wave splitting component 5172.
[0176] In some embodiments, the sixth wave plate 51727 can be a high-pass wave plate, which can allow high-frequency signals to pass through and prevent low-frequency signals from passing through. For example, the sixth wave plate 51727 can allow the second-wavelength light signal to be transmitted and can also allow the third-wavelength light signal to be reflected.
[0177] The fourth wave plate 51725, the fifth wave plate 51726, and the sixth wave plate 51727 can be sequentially connected to reduce the length of the second end surface of the substrate 51721.
[0178] In some embodiments, the center distance between any two wave plates of the fourth wave plate 51725, the fifth wave plate 51726, and the sixth wave plate 51727 is greater than a first preset value, so as to increase the distance between the first-wavelength light signal transmitted by the fifth wave plate 51726 and the second-wavelength light signal transmitted by the sixth wave plate 51727, thereby improving the isolation degree. For example, the first preset value is 1000 nm, and the center distance between any two wave plates of the fourth wave plate 51725, the fifth wave plate 51726, and the sixth wave plate 51727 is greater than 1000 nm.

[0180] Since the plurality of wave plates of the first end surface of the substrate 51721 and the plurality of wave plates of the second end surface of the substrate 51721 are oppositely arranged, the center distance between any two wave plates of the first wave plate 51722, the second wave plate 51723, and the third wave plate 51724 is 1000 nm.
[0181] The third wave plate 51724 is located at the first end surface of the substrate 51721, and the fifth wave plate 51726 and the sixth wave plate 51727 are located at the second end surface of the substrate 51721, so that the emission direction of the light signal transmitted by the third wave plate 51724 is opposite to the emission direction of the light signal transmitted by the fifth wave plate 51726 or the light signal transmitted by the sixth wave plate 51727, thereby improving the isolation degree.

[0186] In some embodiments, the first filter sheet 5177 can be attached on the top of the first light receiving assembly 530 to filter the light signal so that the first light receiving assembly 530 receives the third wavelength light signal.
[0187] The receiving light assembly 517 can include a second filter sheet 5178. The second filter sheet 5178 can be located on the reflected light path of the first reflective sheet 5173.
[0188] In some embodiments, the second filter sheet 5178 can be attached on the top of the second light receiving assembly 520 to filter the light signal so that the second light receiving assembly 520 receives the first wavelength light signal.
[0189] In some embodiments, the receiving light assembly 517 can include a third filter sheet 5174. The third filter sheet 5174 can be located on the output light path of the sixth wave plate 51727. The third filter sheet 5174 can allow the light signal transmitted by the sixth wave plate to pass through. For example, the third filter sheet 5174 can allow the second wavelength light signal to pass through.
[0190] In some embodiments, the third filter sheet 5174 can be attached on the top of the third light receiving assembly 540 to filter the light signal so that the third light receiving assembly 540 receives the second wavelength light signal.
[0191] In some embodiments, the third filter sheet 5174 can be located between the sixth wave plate 51727 and the corresponding light receiving assembly, and the third filter sheet 5174 is not connected to the corresponding light receiving assembly.

[0192] As shown in FIG. 17, the light path is as follows:
[0193] The emitted light signal is transmitted through the fourth wave plate 51725 and the first wave plate 51722 in turn, and then focused and coupled to the fiber adapter 700 through the fourth lens 5171.
[0194] The received light signal is first collimated through the fourth lens 5171, then transmitted through the first wave plate 51722, and then incident to the fifth wave plate 51726 after being reflected through the fourth wave plate 51725 and the second wave plate 51723 in turn.

The fourth connecting hole 5121 can traverse the second side wall 512, such that the fourth connecting hole 5121 can be in communication with the inner cavity of the first cavity, and thus the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident to the light receiving component connected with the fourth connecting hole 5121. For example, the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident to the second light receiving component 520.
[0213] In some embodiments, the fourth connecting hole 5121 can include a first sub-connecting hole 51211.
[0214] In some embodiments, the fourth connecting hole 5121 can include a second sub-connecting hole 51212. One end of the second sub-connecting hole 51212 can be in communication with the inner cavity of the first housing 510. The other end of the second sub-connecting hole 51212 can be in communication with the first sub-connecting hole 51211. The size of the second sub-connecting hole 51212 is smaller than the size of the first sub-connecting hole 51211.
[0215] One end of the second sub-connecting hole 51212 can be in communication with the inner cavity of the first housing 510, and the other end of the second sub-connecting hole 51212 can be in communication with the first sub-connecting hole 51211, such that the fourth connecting hole 5121 can be in communication with the inner cavity of the first cavity.
[0216] The second side wall 512 can have a fifth connecting hole 5122. The fifth connecting hole 5122 can be closer to the first side wall 512 than the fourth connecting hole 5121. The fifth connecting hole 5122 can traverse the second side wall 512, such that the fifth connecting hole 5122 can be in communication with the inner cavity of the first cavity, and thus the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident to the light receiving component connected with the fifth connecting hole 5122. For example, the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident to the first light receiving component 530.
[0217] In some embodiments, the fourth connecting hole 5121 is closer to the second connecting hole 5131 than the fifth connecting hole 5122, such that the light receiving component placed in the fourth connecting hole 5121 is closer to the light emitting component 400 than the light receiving component placed in the fifth connecting hole 5122.
[0218] In some embodiments, the fifth connecting hole 5122 can include a third sub-connecting hole 51221.

[0221] In some embodiments, the second side wall 512 can have a first step 5123. The first step 5123 can be located between the fourth connection hole 5121 and the fifth connection hole 5122. The first step 5123 can make the surface of the area where the fifth connection hole 5122 is located different in height from the surface of the area where the fourth connection hole 5121 is located, that is, the depth of the fifth connection hole 5122 is different from the depth of the fourth connection hole 5121, thereby making the light receiving components placed in the fifth connection hole 5122 and the fourth connection hole 5121 all located in the corresponding connection holes, thereby improving the connection stability of the fifth connection hole 5122 and the fourth connection hole 5121 with their corresponding light receiving components, respectively. For example, the second light receiving component 520 is arranged in the fourth connection hole 5121, the first light receiving component 530 is arranged in the fifth connection hole 5122, and the first step 5123 makes the depth of the fifth connection hole 5122 greater than the depth of the fourth connection hole 5121.
[0222] The fourth side wall 514 can have a third connection hole 5141. The third connection hole 5141 can pass through the fourth side wall 514, so that the third connection hole 5141 can be in communication with the inner cavity of the first cavity, thereby making the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity incident on the light receiving component connected with the third connection hole 5141. For example, the optical signal of the inner cavity of the first cavity can be incident on the third light receiving component 540.
[0223] In some embodiments, the central axis of the fourth connection hole 5121 is closer to the first connection hole 5131 than the central axis of the third connection hole 5141, so that the light receiving component placed in the fourth connection hole 5121 is closer to the fiber adapter 700 than the light receiving component placed in the third connection hole 5141.
[0224] In some embodiments, the fourth side wall 514 can have a second step 5142, so that the area of the fourth side wall 514 where the third connection hole 5141 is located is recessed relative to other areas of the fourth side wall 514, thereby providing accommodation space for the third light receiving component 540 inserted into the third connection hole 5141, and also increasing the strength of the first housing 510.
[0225] FIG. 21 is a cross-sectional view of a light receiving component according to some embodiments, and FIG. 22 is a cross-sectional view of a light receiving component according to some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 21 and FIG. 22, in some embodiments, the fourth lens 5171 can be located outside the first connecting hole 5111, i.e. in the accommodation cavity 516, so as to facilitate active coupling of the fourth lens 5171. Since the space of the accommodation cavity 516 is larger than the space of the first connecting hole 5111, active coupling of the fourth lens 5171 is facilitated, and assembly difficulty is reduced.
[0226] In some embodiments, the fourth lens 5171 can be passively mounted in the first connecting hole 5111 to reduce the volume of the first cavity.
[0227] In some embodiments, the second light receiving assembly 520 can be located on the reflection light path of the first reflecting sheet 5173, the first reflecting sheet 5173 facing the fifth wave sheet 51726 and the second light receiving assembly 520, so that the first wavelength light signal transmitted by the fifth wave sheet 51726 is reflected by the first reflecting sheet 5173 to the second light receiving assembly 520.
[0228] In some embodiments, the first light receiving assembly 530 can be located on the reflection light path of the second reflecting sheet 5176, the second reflecting sheet 5176 facing the third wave sheet 51724 and the first light receiving assembly 530, so that the three-wavelength light signal transmitted by the third wave sheet 51724 is reflected by the second reflecting sheet 5176 to the first light receiving assembly 530.
[0229] In some embodiments, the third light receiving assembly 540 can be located on the reflection light path of the third reflecting sheet 5175, the third reflecting sheet 5175 facing the sixth wave sheet 51727 and the third light receiving assembly 540, so that the second wavelength light signal transmitted by the sixth wave sheet 51727 is reflected by the third reflecting sheet 5175 to the third light receiving assembly 540.
[0230] In some embodiments, the receiving rate of the second light receiving assembly 520 is greater than the receiving rate of the first light receiving assembly 530 and the third light receiving assembly 540, resulting in that the receiving light sensitive surface of the second light receiving assembly 520 is smaller than the receiving light sensitive surface of the first light receiving assembly 530 and the third light receiving assembly 540, so that the transmission path of the first wavelength light signal received by the second light receiving assembly 520 is the shortest, and the light receiving chip of the second light receiving assembly 520 can receive the first wavelength light signal with high coupling efficiency.
[0231] In some embodiments, the receiving rates of the second light receiving component 520, the first light receiving component 530, and the third light receiving component 540 are sequentially decreased, the receiving light sensitive surfaces of the second light receiving component 520, the first light receiving component 530, and the third light receiving component 540 are sequentially increased, the transmission paths of the first wavelength light signal, the second wavelength light signal, and the third wavelength light signal are sequentially increased, and the second light receiving component 520, the first light receiving component 530, and the third light receiving component 540 can all receive the corresponding wavelength receiving light signal with high efficiency.
[0232] In some embodiments, the second light receiving component 520 can be disposed in the fourth connecting hole 5121. The second light receiving component 520 can be disposed in the first sub-connecting hole 51211, and the second filter 5178 on the second light receiving component 520 can be disposed in the second sub-connecting hole 51212.
[0233] In some embodiments, the first light receiving component 530 can be disposed in the fifth connecting hole 5122. The first light receiving component 530 is disposed in the third sub-connecting hole 51221, part of the bracket 550 on the first light receiving component 530 is located in the third sub-connecting hole 51221, and part of the bracket 550 is located in the fourth sub-connecting hole 51222. The first filter 5177 on the bracket 550 is located in the fourth sub-connecting hole 51222.
[0234] In some embodiments, the third light receiving component 540 can be disposed in the third connecting hole 5141.
[0235] In some embodiments, the first reflecting sheet 5173 can be supported on the second supporting surface 5133, so that the first reflecting sheet 5173 can face the fifth wave sheet 51726 and the second light receiving component 520 in the fourth connecting hole 5121, and thus the first reflecting sheet 5173 can reflect the first wavelength light signal to the second light receiving component 520.
[0236] In some embodiments, the first reflecting sheet 5173 can be supported on the fifth supporting surface 5134. The first reflecting sheet 5173 is supported on the second supporting surface 5133 and the fifth supporting surface 5134 to increase the contact area of the first reflecting sheet 5173 with the first housing 510. In some embodiments, the second reflecting sheet 5176 can be supported on the third supporting surface 5143, so that the second reflecting sheet 5176 can face the fifth connecting hole 5122, and thus the second reflecting sheet 5176 can face the first light receiving component 530 in the fifth connecting hole 5122, and thus the second reflecting sheet 5176 can reflect the third wavelength light signal to the first light receiving component 530.
[0237] In some embodiments, a side wall of the wave splitting component 5172 can be supported on the fourth supporting surface 5144 to facilitate the bonding of the wave splitting component 5172 and the first housing 510. The fourth supporting surface 5144 can be located on the inner surface of the fourth side wall 514 or the inner surface of the second side wall 512.
[0238] In some embodiments, the third reflective sheet 5175 can be supported on the first supporting surface 5132 so that the third reflective sheet 5175 can face the third connecting hole 5141, and thus the third reflective sheet 5175 can face the third light receiving component 540 in the third connecting hole 5141, so that the third reflective sheet 5175 can reflect the second wavelength light signal to the third light receiving component 540.
[0239] In some embodiments, the third reflective sheet 5175 can include an incident surface, a reflective surface, and an exit surface. The incident surface is located between the sixth wave sheet 51727 and the reflective surface, and the exit surface is located between the third light receiving component 540 and the reflective surface. The reflective surface is arranged obliquely relative to the incident surface. The second wavelength light signal is incident on the third reflective sheet 5175 through the incident surface, and is reflected by the reflective surface of the third reflective sheet 5175 and then exits through the exit surface.
[0240] In some embodiments, one side of the reflective surface can be connected to one side of the incident surface through a connecting surface.
[0241] In some embodiments, the other side of the reflective surface can be connected to one side of the exit surface.

This can reduce the width dimension of the third reflective sheet 5175, facilitate the increase of the contact area between the third reflective sheet 5175 (the connecting surface of the third reflective sheet 5175) and the first supporting surface 5132, and thus improve the connection stability of the third reflective sheet 5175 and the first housing 510.
[0244] In some embodiments, the third filter sheet 5174 can be supported on the first supporting surface 5132.
[0245] In some embodiments, the third filter sheet 5174 can be located between the sixth wave sheet 51717 and the third reflective sheet 5175 to reduce the distance between the third reflective sheet 5175 and the third light receiving component 540, and thus reduce the width dimension of the first housing 510.
[0246] In some embodiments, the third filter 5174 is connected with the incident surface of the third reflecting sheet 5175, so that the third filter 5174 is connected with the third reflecting sheet 5175 in contact, thereby reducing the length of the first housing 510.
[0247] In some embodiments, the central axis of the fourth connecting hole 5121 is closer to the first connecting hole 5131 than the central axis of the third connecting hole 5141, which not only reduces the interference between the first reflecting sheet 5173 and the third reflecting sheet 5175, but also provides a space for the third filter 5174, and can also reduce the width of the first housing 510.
[0248] After the wavelength division assembly 5172 divides the received optical signal into the first wavelength optical signal, the second wavelength optical signal and the third wavelength optical signal, the optical path is shown in FIG. 23, the first wavelength optical signal is reflected by the first reflecting sheet 5173 to the second filter 5178, and then filtered by the second filter 5178 and incident to the second optical receiving assembly 520; the third wavelength optical signal is reflected by the second reflecting sheet 5176 to the first filter 5177, and then filtered by the first filter 5177 and incident to the first optical receiving assembly 530; the second wavelength optical signal is filtered by the third filter 5174, and then incident to the third reflecting sheet 5175, and reflected by the third reflecting sheet 5175 to the third optical receiving assembly 540.

[0401] Figure 47 is a device layout diagram in another third housing according to some embodiments. As shown in Figure 47, in some embodiments, a prism group 211 can be arranged in the third housing 206. The prism group 211 is located on the output light path of the first laser component 440, the second laser component 450 and the third laser component 460, the prism group 211 is located on the input light path of the isolator component 209, and the prism group 211 can multiplex the light paths of the optical signals generated by the first laser component 440, the second laser component 450 and the third laser component 460.

[0403] FIG. 48 is an exploded view of another light receiving component according to some embodiments. FIG. 49 is a partial exploded view of another light receiving component according to some embodiments. As shown in FIG. 48 and FIG. 49, in some embodiments, the light receiving component 500a can include a first cavity, which can include a first housing 510a, and the inner cavity of the first housing 510a can be provided with a first light assembly 517b. The first light assembly 517b can transmit the emitted light signal to the fiber adapter 700, or can split the received light signal transmitted by the fiber adapter 700 to the first cavity, and then can incident the split light signal to the corresponding light receiving assembly.
[0404] In some embodiments, the first light assembly 517b can include a first lens 5171 for collimating / converging the light signal. For example, the received light signal transmitted by the fiber adapter 700 to the first cavity is converged by the first lens 5171, and the light signal transmitted by the fiber adapter 700 to the first cavity is collimated by the first lens 5171.
[0405] In some embodiments, the first light assembly 517b can include a splitting assembly 5172b. The first end of the splitting assembly 5172b can be provided corresponding to the first end of the light receiving component 500a, and the second end of the splitting assembly 5172b can be provided corresponding to the second end of the light receiving component 500a, so that the splitting assembly 5172b can be arranged along the length direction of the light receiving component 500a.
[0406] The splitting assembly 5172b can be arranged along the length direction of the light receiving component 500a, i.e. the splitting assembly 5172b can be arranged along the length direction of the first housing 510a, so as to reduce the width dimension of the first housing 510a, and further reduce the width dimension of the light receiving component 500a. When the splitting assembly 5172b is arranged along the length direction of the first housing 510a, the width dimension of the first housing 510a that needs to accommodate the splitting assembly 5172b can be reduced to meet the demand. Since the length dimension of the receiving pin of the light receiving assembly is small, the width dimension of the first housing 510a is reduced, and the width dimension of the light receiving component 500a is also reduced.
[0407] In some embodiments, the splitting assembly 5172b can be located between the first lens 5171 and the light emitting component 400, and the splitting assembly 5172b can be arranged along the length direction of the light receiving component 500a, so that the splitting assembly 5172b can transmit the emitted light signal emitted by the light emitting component 400 to the first lens 5171. The splitting assembly 5172a can split the collimated light signal of the first lens 5171 according to the wavelength. For example, the splitting assembly 5172a can split a bundle of received light signals including a first wavelength, a second wavelength and a third wavelength into a first wavelength light signal, a second wavelength light signal and a third wavelength light signal according to the wavelength.
[0408] The wavelength division assembly 5172b can transmit the emission light signal (i.e., the emission light beam) emitted by the light emission component 400 to the first lens 5171, and can also transmit the received light signal (i.e., the received light beam) collimated by the first lens 5171 according to the wavelength, and can reduce the distance of the emission light beam and the received light beam in the width direction of the first housing 510, and thus the width dimension of the light receiving component 500a can be reduced.
[0409] In some embodiments, the first end of the wavelength division assembly 5172b has a receiving light entrance, and the second end of the wavelength division assembly 5172b has an emission light entrance, the emission light signal emitted by the light emission component 400 is incident to the emission light entrance of the second end of the wavelength division assembly 5172b and is emitted through the receiving light entrance of the first end of the wavelength division assembly 5172b, and the received light signal transmitted by the fiber adapter 700 and including the first wavelength, the second wavelength and the third wavelength is incident to the receiving light entrance of the first end of the wavelength division assembly 5172a, and is reflected through the emission light entrance of the second end of the wavelength division assembly 5172b, and then is divided into the first wavelength light signal, the second wavelength light signal and the third wavelength light signal and is emitted. The first wavelength light signal, the second wavelength light signal and the third wavelength light signal are respectively incident to the corresponding light receiving assembly. The optical path of the emission light signal and the optical path of the received light signal coincide in the width direction of the light receiving component 500a, so as to reduce the width dimension of the light receiving component 500a.
[0410] In some embodiments, the wavelength division assembly 5172b has a first light exit, a second light exit and a third light exit, so that the first wavelength light signal after being divided by the wavelength division assembly 5172b is emitted through the first light exit of the wavelength division assembly 5172b, the third wavelength light signal is emitted through the second light exit of the wavelength division assembly 5172a, and the second wavelength light signal is emitted through the third light exit of the wavelength division assembly 5172a.
[0411] The first wavelength light signal, the second wavelength light signal and the third wavelength light signal after being divided are respectively incident to the corresponding light receiving assembly. For example, the first wavelength light signal is incident to the second light receiving assembly, the second wavelength light signal is incident to the third light receiving assembly, and the third wavelength light signal is incident to the first light receiving assembly. The first wavelength light signal is incident to the second light receiving assembly after being emitted through the second light exit, the third wavelength light signal is incident to the first light receiving assembly after being emitted through the first light exit, and the second wavelength light signal is incident to the third light receiving assembly after being emitted through the third light exit, so as to complete the transmission of the received light signal after being divided.
[0412] In some embodiments, the first end of the wave splitting component 5172b and the second end of the wave splitting component 5172b are arranged in parallel, so that the emitted light signals incident to the second end of the wave splitting component 5172b and the emitted light signals emitted through the first end of the wave splitting component 5172b are parallel to each other.
[0413] In some embodiments, the first end of the wave splitting component 5172b has a second preset range of inclination angle, so that the received light signals incident to the wave splitting component 5172b including the first wavelength, the second wavelength and the third wavelength can be separated into the first wavelength light signals, the second wavelength light signals and the third wavelength light signals through the wave splitting component 5172b. For example, the second preset range is 13.5°±1°.
[0414] In some embodiments, the first light assembly 517b can include a first reflective sheet 5173. The first reflective sheet 5173 can be located on the output light path at the first light output of the wave splitting component 5172b. The first reflective sheet 5173 is used for reflection of the light signals, so that the light signals emitted at the first light output can be reflected out.
[0415] In some embodiments, the first light assembly 517b can include a second reflective sheet. The second reflective sheet can be located on the output light path at the second light output of the wave splitting component 5172b. The second reflective sheet is used for reflection of the light signals, so that the light signals emitted at the second light output can be reflected out.
[0416] In some embodiments, the first light assembly 517b can include a first reflective sheet 5176a. The first reflective sheet 5176a can be located on the output light path at the second light output of the wave splitting component 5172b. The first reflective sheet 5176a is used for reflection of the light signals, so that the light signals emitted at the second light output can be reflected out. Compared with the second reflective sheet, the first reflective sheet 5176a has a larger bottom area, so that the first reflective sheet 5176a can be placed on the bottom plate 5161 instead of being in contact with the side wall of the first housing 510a.
[0417] In some embodiments, the first light assembly 517b can include a third reflective sheet. The third reflective sheet can be located on the output light path at the third light output of the wave splitting component 5172b. The third reflective sheet is used for reflection of the light signals, so that the light signals emitted at the third light output can be reflected out.
[0418] In some embodiments, the first light assembly 517b can include a second reflecting element 5174a. The second reflecting element 5174a can be located on the output light path at the third light exit of the wave division assembly 5172b. The second reflecting element 5174a is used for the reflection of the optical signal so that the optical signal emitted at the third light exit can be reflected out. The second reflecting element 5174a has a larger bottom area relative to the third reflecting sheet, so that the second reflecting element 5174a can be placed on the bottom plate 5161 instead of being in contact with the side wall of the first shell 510a.
[0419] As shown in FIGS. 48 and 49, in some embodiments, the first shell 510a can include a first side wall 511, and the first side wall 511 can be provided with a first connecting hole 5111.
[0420] In some embodiments, the first shell 510a can include a second side wall 512a, and one end of the second side wall 512a can be connected to one end of the first side wall 511. The second side wall 512a can be provided with a fourth connecting hole 5121a and a fifth connecting hole 5122a, the fourth connecting hole 5121a can be used to place the third light receiving assembly 540, and the fifth connecting hole 5122a can be used to place the second light receiving assembly 520, so that the second light receiving assembly 520 and the third light receiving assembly 540 can be located on the second side wall 512a of the first shell 510a, that is, the second light receiving assembly 520 and the third light receiving assembly 540 can be located on the same side of the light receiving component 500a.
[0421] The receiving rate of the second light receiving assembly 520 is greater than that of the third light receiving assembly 540, the receiving light sensitive surface of the second light receiving assembly 520 is smaller than that of the third light receiving assembly 540, and the distance between the converging lens of the second light receiving assembly 520 and the receiving light sensitive surface of the light receiving chip is greater than that between the converging lens of the third light receiving assembly 540 and the receiving light sensitive surface of the light receiving chip. In order to place the second light receiving assembly 520 in the fifth connecting hole 5122a and the third light receiving assembly 540 in the fourth connecting hole 5121a, in some embodiments, a first step 5123a can be provided in the middle of the second side wall 512a, and the first step 5123a can be located between the fourth connecting hole 5121a and the fifth connecting hole 5122a. The presence of the first step 5123a makes the area where the fourth connecting hole 5121a is located protrude from the area where the fifth connecting hole 5122a is located, that is, the depth dimension of the fourth connecting hole 5121a is greater than that of the fifth connecting hole 5122a, so that the second light receiving assembly 520 can be placed in the fifth connecting hole 5122a, and the third light receiving assembly 540 can be placed in the fourth connecting hole 5121a, thereby improving the connection stability of the fifth connecting hole 5122a and the second light receiving assembly 520, and the connection stability of the fourth connecting hole 5121a and the third light receiving assembly 540.
[0422] In some embodiments, the first shell 510a can include a third side wall 513, one end of the third side wall 513 can be connected with the other end of the second side wall 512a. The third side wall 513 can be provided with a second connecting hole 5131, and the isolator 521 can be placed in the second connecting hole 5131.

One end of the fourth side wall 514a can be provided with a third connecting hole 5141, and the first light receiving assembly 530 can be placed in the third connecting hole 5141, so that the first light receiving assembly 530 can be located on the fourth side wall 514a of the first shell 510a, that is, the first light receiving assembly 530 can be located on the other side of the light receiving component 500a.
[0424] In some embodiments, the fourth side wall 514a can be provided with a second step 5142 in the middle, the first end of the second step 5142 is connected with the area where the third connecting hole 5141 is located, and the second end of the second step 5142 is connected with a first connecting area 5147. The first connecting area 5147 protrudes from the area where the third connecting hole 5141 is located, and can provide a containing space for the first light receiving assembly 530 inserted into the third connecting hole 5141.
[0425] In some embodiments, the other end of the fourth side wall 514a can be provided with a third step 5146, the first end of the third step 5146 is connected with the first connecting area 5147, the second end of the third step 5146 is connected with a second connecting area 5145, and the second connecting area 5145 protrudes from the first connecting area 5147. Not only can it ensure the width size of the first shell near the fiber optic adapter, so that the other end of the first shell 510a can be welded and connected with the fiber optic adapter 700, but also can avoid the interference between the first shell and the shell of the optical module.
[0426] The third connecting hole 5141, the second step 5142, the first connecting area 5147, the third step 5146, and the second connecting area 5145 are provided, so that the fourth side wall 514a is stepped.
[0427] One of the first light receiving component 530, the second light receiving component 520 and the third light receiving component 540 can be located on one side wall of the first shell 510a, and the other two light receiving components can be located on the other side wall of the first shell 510a, so that one of the first light receiving component 530, the second light receiving component 520 and the third light receiving component 540 can be located on one side of the light receiving part 500a, and the other two light receiving components can be located on the other side of the light receiving part 500a. For example, the second light receiving component 520 and the third light receiving component 540 can be located on the second side wall of the first shell 510a, and the first light receiving component 530 can be located on the fourth side wall of the first shell 510a.
[0428] In some embodiments, the first shell 510a can include a bottom plate 5161. The bottom plate 5161 can be connected with the bottom of the first side wall 511, the second side wall 512a, the third side wall 513 and the fourth side wall 514a, so that the first shell 510a can form a containing cavity 516a. The containing cavity 516a can be the inner cavity of the first shell 510a, so that the containing cavity 516a can be in communication with the first connecting hole 5111, the second connecting hole 5131, the third connecting hole 5141, the fourth connecting hole 5121a and the fifth connecting hole 5122a.
[0429] The material of the bottom plate 5161 can be stainless steel, and the bottom plate 5161 and the first lens 5171 are connected by the first glue. The expansion coefficients of the bottom plate 5161 and the first lens 5171 are quite different, and the bonding stability between the bottom plate 5161 and the first lens 5171 is poor, which causes the separation of the first lens 5171 and the bottom plate 5161. In order to solve this problem, in some embodiments, a second substrate 5181 can be arranged on the bottom plate 5161, the bottom plate 5161 and the second substrate 5181 can be bonded by the first glue, the first lens 5171 can be arranged on the second substrate 5181, and the first lens 5171 and the second substrate 5181 can be bonded by the second glue. The expansion coefficients of the bottom plate 5161, the second substrate 5181 and the first lens 5171 gradually decrease, and the bonding stability between the bottom plate 5161 and the second substrate 5181 and the bonding stability between the second substrate 5181 and the first lens 5171 are both greater than the bonding stability between the bottom plate 5161 and the first lens 5171, which avoids the separation of the first lens 5171 and the bottom plate 5161.
[0430] In some embodiments, the third substrate 5182 can be arranged on the bottom plate 5161, and the third substrate 5182 can be arranged with the wave separation component 5172b, the first reflecting piece 5176a, and the second reflecting piece 5174a. The height of the wave separation component 5172b, the first reflecting piece 5176a, and the second reflecting piece 5174a can be increased, so that the central axis of the first lens 5171 coincides with the central axis of the receiving light-in light of the wave separation component 5172b, the central axis of the second light-out light of the wave separation component 5172b coincides with the central axis of the first reflecting piece 5176a, and the central axis of the third light-out light of the wave separation component 5172b coincides with the central axis of the second reflecting piece 5174a. In this way, the wave separation component 5172b can receive the collimated received light signal of the first lens 5171, the first reflecting piece 5176a can receive the light signal emitted from the first light-out light, and the second reflecting piece 5174a can receive the light signal emitted from the third light-out light.
[0431] In some embodiments, the support plate 5183 can be arranged on the bottom plate 5161, and the support plate 5183 can be arranged with the first reflecting piece 5173. The height of the first reflecting piece 5173 can be increased, so that the central axis of the first reflecting piece 5173 coincides with the central axis of the first light-out light of the wave separation component 5172b. In this way, the first reflecting piece 5173 can receive the light signal emitted from the first light-out light. The second substrate 5181 is located between the support plate 5183 and the fourth side wall 514a to limit the position of the second substrate 5181. The third substrate 5182 is located between the support plate 5183 and the third side wall 513 to limit the position of the third substrate 5182.

[0455] The seventh wave plate 51728b can be a low-pass wave plate, which can allow low-frequency signals to pass through and block high-frequency signals. For example, the seventh wave plate 51728b can allow the third wavelength light signal to be transmitted, and can allow the first wavelength light signal and the second wavelength light signal to be reflected.
[0456] The seventh wave plate 51728b can serve as a second light exit at the second end of the wave splitting assembly 5172b, so that the third wavelength light signal is transmitted out through the seventh wave plate 51728b.

For example, the first reflecting member 5176a can receive the third wavelength light signal.
[0459] In some embodiments, the wave separation component 5172b can include an eighth wave plate 51729b. The eighth wave plate 51729b can be disposed on the second end surface of the first substrate 51721. The eighth wave plate 51729b can be disposed opposite to the fourth wave plate 51725b, and the eighth wave plate 51729b can be located on the reflected light path of the fourth wave plate 51725b, so that the eighth wave plate 51729b can receive the received light signal reflected by the fourth wave plate 51725b.

[0464] The inclination angle of the first substrate 51721 of the wave separation component 5172a is small, and the three similar wavelength light signals can be separated by the wave separation component 5172a. The inclination angle of the first substrate 51721 of the wave separation component 5172b is increased, the number of wave plates of the wave separation component 5172b is increased, and the number of reflections of the received light signal in the wave separation component 5172b is increased, thereby improving the isolation. The incident angles of the received light signal with multiple reflections and the received light signal with few reflections are different, and the incident angle affects the band-pass property of the wave plate.
[0465] From the second side wall 512a to the fourth side wall 514a, the eighth wave plate 51729b, the seventh wave plate 51278b, the sixth wave plate 51727b and the fifth wave plate 51726b are sequentially arranged at the second end of the first substrate 51721, and the fourth wave plate 51725b, the third wave plate 51724b, the second wave plate 51723b and the first wave plate 51722c are sequentially arranged at the first end of the first substrate 51721.

[0466] As shown in FIG. 51, the distance between the center axis of the second connecting hole 5131 and the fourth side wall 514a is less than the distance between the center axis of the second connecting hole 5131 and the second side wall 512a, the distance between the light emitting light entrance (i.e., the fifth wave plate 51726b) of the wave splitting assembly 5172b and the fourth side wall 514a is less than the distance between the light emitting light entrance (i.e., the fifth wave plate 51726b) and the second side wall 512a, the distance between the light receiving light entrance (i.e., the first wave plate 51722) of the wave splitting assembly 5172b and the fourth side wall 514a is less than the distance between the light receiving light entrance (i.e., the first wave plate 51722) and the second side wall 512a, so that the distance between the optical axis of the emitted light signal and the fourth side wall is less than the distance between the optical axis of the emitted light signal and the second side wall, which can reduce the number of intersections of the emitted light signal and the received light signal, and further reduce the interference between the emitted light signal and the received light signal.
[0467] Compared with the wave splitting assembly 5172a, the width dimension of the first substrate 51721 of the wave splitting assembly 5172b is increased, so that the first substrate 51721 can be attached with the eighth wave plate 51729b, the seventh wave plate 51278b, the sixth wave plate 51727b, the fifth wave plate 51726b, the fourth wave plate 51725b, the third wave plate 51724b, the second wave plate 51723b and the first wave plate 51722c.
[0468] Compared with the wave splitting assembly 5172a, the length dimension of the first substrate 51721 of the wave splitting assembly 5172b is reduced to reduce the transmission path of the received light signal and the reflected light signal, and reduce the loss.
[0469] In some embodiments, the center distance between any two adjacent wave plates of the fifth wave plate 51726b, the sixth wave plate 51727b, the seventh wave plate 51278b and the eighth wave plate 51729b is greater than a second preset value, so as to increase the distance between the third wavelength light signal transmitted by the seventh wave plate 51278b and the second wavelength light signal transmitted by the eighth wave plate 51729b, thereby improving the isolation. For example, the second preset value is 500 μm, and the center distance between any two adjacent wave plates of the fifth wave plate 51726b, the sixth wave plate 51727b, the seventh wave plate 51278b and the eighth wave plate 51729b is greater than 500 μm.

[0472] The first reflecting plate 5176a can be located between the second light exit of the wave division assembly 5172b and the first light receiving assembly 530, so that the first reflecting plate 5176a can reflect the received light signal transmitted by the second light exit of the wave division assembly 5172b to the first light receiving assembly 530. For example, the first reflecting plate 5176a can be located between the seventh wave plate 51728b and the first light receiving assembly 530, and the first reflecting plate 5176a can reflect the third wavelength light signal to the first light receiving assembly 530.
[0473] The first reflecting member 5176a can include a first incident surface 51761a, a first reflecting surface 51762a, and a first exit surface 51763a. The first reflecting surface 51762a faces the first incident surface 51761a, such that the first reflecting surface 51762a can receive the third wavelength light signal incident on the first incident surface 51761a and reflect the third wavelength light signal. The first exit surface 51763a is located on the reflection path of the first reflecting surface 51762a, such that the third wavelength light signal can exit through the first exit surface 51763a. The first exit surface 51763a is located between the first reflecting surface 51762a and the first light receiving component 530, such that the first light receiving component 530 can receive the third wavelength light signal exiting through the first exit surface 51763a.
[0474] The second reflecting member 5174a can be located between the third light exit of the wave splitting component 5172b and the third light receiving component 540, such that the second reflecting member 5174a can reflect the received light signal transmitted at the third light exit of the wave splitting component 5172b to the third light receiving component 540. For example, the second reflecting member 5174a can be located between the eighth wave sheet 51729b and the third light receiving component 540, and the second reflecting member 5174a can reflect the second wavelength light signal to the third light receiving component 540.
[0475] The second reflecting member 5174a includes a second incident surface 51741a, a second reflecting surface 51742a, and a second exit surface 51743a. The second incident surface 51742a is located on the transmission path of the eighth wave sheet 51729b, such that the second incident surface 51742a can receive the second wavelength light signal transmitted by the eighth wave sheet 51729b. The second reflecting surface 51742a faces the second incident surface, such that the second reflecting surface 51742a can receive the second wavelength light signal incident on the second incident surface 51741a and reflect the second wavelength light signal. The second exit surface 51743a is located on the reflection path of the second reflecting surface 51742a, such that the second wavelength light signal can exit through the second exit surface 51743a.

[0476] The distance between the second end surface of the first substrate 51721 and the third side wall 513 gradually increases from the second side wall 512a to the fourth side wall 514a, and the distance between the seventh wave sheet 51728b and the third side wall 513 is greater than the distance between the eighth wave sheet 51729b and the third side wall 513. In some embodiments, the center axis of the fourth connecting hole 5121a is closer to the third side wall 513 relative to the center axis of the third connecting hole 5141, which can reduce the light signal transmission path and reduce transmission loss.
[0477] The length dimension of the second side wall 512a is greater than the length dimension of the fourth side wall 514a due to the center axis of the fourth connecting hole 5121a being closer to the third side wall 513 than the center axis of the third connecting hole 5141.
[0478] As shown in FIG. 51, the light path is as follows:
[0479] The emitted light signal is transmitted through the fifth wave plate 51726b and the first wave plate 51722 in sequence, and then focused and coupled to the optical fiber adapter 700 through the first lens 5171.
[0480] The received light signal is first collimated through the first lens 5171, and then transmitted through the first wave plate 51722, and reflected to the second wave plate 51723b through the fifth wave plate 51726b. The first wavelength light signal in the received light signal is transmitted through the second wave plate 51723b, and then reflected to the second light receiving component 520 through the first reflecting piece 5173.
