Abstract:
A fiber optic module comprising:a first optoelectronic device; a second optoelectronic device; and an optical block coupled to the first and second optoelectronic devices at one side, the optical block to couple photons along a first photon path between the first optoelectronic device at the one side and and a first optical fiber at another side, couple photons along a second photon path between the second optoelectronic device at the one side and a second optical fiber at the another side, and narrow the distance between the first photon path and the second photon path from the one side of the optical block substantially near where the the first and second optoelectronic devices are coupled to the another side of the optical block substantially near where photons are to be coupled between the first and second optical fibers and the optical block.
