    摘要: A method and apparatus for detecting optical reflections in an optical network to locate and assess a problem in the optical network without dispatching multiple technicians with different skill sets and equipment. Optical transport components are configured to transmit optical signals. Supervisory components are configured to supervise the optical transport components. An optical reflection detector is configured: (i) to sense reflections of the transmitted optical signals via the optical transport components and (ii) to provide information about the reflections to the supervisory components. The supervisory components may use the information about the reflections to determine the locations and power values of the reflections. The information about the reflections may be stored in a database and tracked over a length of time. The supervisory components may issue an alarm when a metric associated with reflections exceeds a threshold value.

    摘要: An opto-electronic module has a platform and an optical sub-unit. The platform has a trough structure defined on a surface of the platform and the trough structure is configured to transmit an optical beam through the trough structure. The electrical sub-unit is coupled to the trough structure. The sub-unit is configured to mate with the trough structure to provide a chosen alignment to emit, operate on or receive the optical beam.
