摘要： A gearbox IC is incorporated into an optical communications system to enable an optical link that incorporates the system to achieve data rates that are at least double that which are currently achievable in optical links. The gearbox IC performs data rate conversion and phase alignment. In the transmit direction, the gearbox IC receives N lanes of electrical data signals having a data rate of X Gbps and outputs N/2 lanes of electrical data signals having a data rate of 2X Gbps. In the receive direction, the gearbox IC receives N/2 electrical data signals having a data rate of 2X Gbps and converts the N/2 electrical data signals into N electrical data signals having a data rate of X.

摘要： A latch mechanism of a data communication module operates by a portion of an actuator sliding in a slot in the module housing that is oriented at an oblique angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the module housing, thereby translating a force generated in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the module housing into a force in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis as the bail of the latch mechanism pivots between a latched position and an unlatched position. A first end of the actuator is coupled to the bail through a cam pivot. A second end of the actuator has a pin portion that extends through or retracts into an opening in a wall of the module housing.

摘要： A leadframe of a parallel optical communications module has tapered protrusions disposed on an upper surface thereof that are positioned and shaped to mate with respective tapered openings formed in a lower surface of an optics module of the parallel optical communications module. The tapered protrusions are used as fiducial marks during a mounting process during which an array of optoelectronic devices is positioned, oriented and secured to the upper surface of the leadframe. Subsequently, during a passive alignment process, the lower surface of the optics module is placed in contact with the upper surface of the leadframe such that the tapered protrusions of the leadframe mate with respective tapered openings formed in the optics module, which causes the optoelectronic devices to come into precise optical alignment with the respective lenses.

摘要： A parallel optical transceiver module is provided that has a heat dissipation system that dissipates large amounts of heat, while also protecting the laser diodes, ICs and other components of the module from particulates, such as dust, for example, and from mechanical handling forces. The heat dissipation system is configured to be secured to the optical subassembly (OSA) of the module such that when the OSA is secured to the upper surface of the leadframe of the module, the OSA and the heat dissipation system cooperate to encapsulate at least the laser diodes and laser diode driver IC in a way that protects these components from dust and other particulates and from external mechanical forces. The heat dissipation system of the module is disposed for coupling with an external heat dissipation system, e.g., with a heat dissipation system that is provided by the customer.

摘要： An opto-electronic module connector system is mountable on a system substrate, such as a printed circuit board, in a variety of configurations or orientations and includes an electromagnetic interference (EMI)-shielding enclosure, a connector assembly, and a socket. The connector assembly includes a connector body, a connector printed circuit board, a substantially planar contact holder, electrical contact fingers mounted on the contact holder, and an opto-electronic module. When the EMI-shielding enclosure and socket are mounted on the system substrate, a user can readily insert the connector assembly into the EMI-shielding enclosure and plug it into the socket. A user can likewise readily remove the connector assembly from the EMI-shielding enclosure and socket for maintenance, cleaning, repair or other purposes.

摘要： A protective coating encapsulates bond pads disposed on a substrate of an optical communications module and extends in between the bond pads. The protective coating has characteristics that (1) increase the dielectric resistances between adjacent bond pads on the substrate, (2) protect the bond pads from moisture in the environment, and (3) prevents, or at least reduces, ion migration between adjacent bond pads. In this way, the protective coating prevents, or at least reduces, corrosion growth that can lead to impedance degradation and electrical shorts between adjacent bond pads.

摘要： A method and an apparatus are provided for launching light into an entrance facet of a multimode optical fiber (MMF) of an optical link in a way that excites one or more higher-order Hermite Gaussian (HMG) mode groups in the MMF. Exciting higher-order HMG mode groups in the MMF increases the bandwidth of the link while also providing reduced modal noise. In addition, selectively exciting one or more higher-order HMG mode groups in the MMF ensures that the launch will provide desirable results even in cases where the connector that connects the end of the MMF to the optical transceiver or transmitter is offset with respect to the receptacle of the optical transceiver or transmitter. This feature allows for greater manufacturing tolerances when manufacturing the connectors and receptacles because precise alignment between them is not critical to achieving a successful launch.
