Abstract: Optical devices and methods of manufacture are presented in which a multi-tier connector is utilized to transmit and receive optical signals to and from an optical device. In embodiments a multi-tier connection unit receives optical signals from outside of an optical device, wherein the optical signals are originally in multiple levels. The multi-tier connection unit then routes the optical signals into a single level of optical components.
