Claim 4:
5. An optical transceiver, comprising:
a circuit board;
an input assembly, arranged on the circuit board, and comprising a first input port and a second input port, wherein the first input port comprises a plurality of first input interfaces, the second input port comprises a plurality of second input interfaces;
an output port, comprising a plurality of first output interfaces and a plurality of second output interfaces, wherein a horizontal position of one or all of the first output interfaces is different from a horizontal position of the second output interfaces when using a surface of the circuit board as a horizontal reference;
a fiber patch panel, arranged between the input assembly and the output port, and comprising two groups of first fiber patch slots and a plurality of second fiber patch slots, each of the groups comprising a plurality of first fiber patch slots;
a plurality of first optical fibers, connecting one of the first input interfaces and one of the first output interfaces corresponding with each other, and one or all of the first optical fibers passing through one of the first fiber patch slots and one of the second fiber patch slots; and
a plurality of second optical fibers, connecting one of the second input interfaces and one of the second output interfaces corresponding with each other, and one or all of the second optical fibers passing through one of the first fiber patch slots and one of the second fiber patch slots,
wherein, one of the second fiber patch slots accommodates one of the first optical fibers and one of the second optical fibers,
wherein each first output interface and one of the second output interfaces corresponding thereto are aligned to one of the second fiber patch slots;
wherein the two groups of first fiber patch slots are respectively disposed at two opposite sides of the circuit board first fiber patch slots and aligned to the first input port and the second input port respectively;
wherein the first optical fibers are held in one of the groups and the second optical fibers are held in another of the groups of first fiber patch slots;
wherein each of the first fiber patch slots contains only two of the first optical fibers, each of the second fiber patch slots contains only one of the first optical fibers and one of the second optical fibers together.
