APPARATUS FOR BI-DIRECTIONAL OPTICAL TRANSMISSION

摘要

There is provided a bi-directional optical transmitting and receiving apparatus. The bi-directional optical transmitting and receiving apparatus includes: a package having a cavity and allowing a plurality of lead wires to pass therethrough; a platform mounted on the package and including a through hole formed above the cavity and having sloped surfaces; a reception unit mounted within the cavity and generating an electrical signal corresponding to input light made incident to the cavity through the through hole and outputting the generated electrical signal to at least one of the plurality of lead wires; a transmission unit mounted on the platform and generating output light according to an electrical signal transmitted through at least one of the plurality of lead wires; and a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) filter mounted on the platform to transfer the output light toward an optical fiber and the input light toward the through hole.
