Device for converting signal

摘要

A device for converting and optionally processing an optical signal comprises an optical cable having an optical-electrical conversion device at one end, the optical-electrical conversion device to convert the optical signal to an electrical signal or an electrical signal into an optical signal; a electrical package to removably receive the optical-electrical conversion device and generate processed signal; and a general circuit board attached to the electrical package and operable to receive the processed signal.

主权项

1. A device for converting signal, comprising:
an optical cable having an optical-electrical conversion device comprising an active optical element attached to an optical interface at one end, the optical-electrical conversion device for converting optical signals from the optical cable to electrical signals or for converting electrical signals to optical signals to the optical cable; an electrical package to:
receive the optical cable having the optical-electrical conversion device in a manner that the optical cable having the optical-electrical conversion device is removable from the electrical package;receive an electrical signal from the optical cable;generate processed signals from the electrical signal; and a general circuit board attached to the electrical package for receiving the processed signal, wherein the optical interface comprises:
electrical contacts to provide electrical communication between the electrical package and the optical-electrical conversion device; andat least one lens to provide optical communication between active optical element and the optical cable.
