Patent ID: 8200096

Claim:
An optical transceiver which converts optical signals of a plurality of channels input from a first side into electrical signals so as to output the electrical signals to a second side and converts electrical signals of a plurality of channels input from the second side into optical signals so as to output the optical signals to the first side, the optical transceiver comprising: a case; each of single channel light receiving assemblies located inside the case, comprising a light receiving device for detecting an optical signal of a channel from the first side; each of single channel light emitting assemblies located inside the case, comprising a light emitting device operated by an electrical signal of a channel from the second side; a first optical-fiber array connector installed in the first side of the case; and a second optical-fiber array connector installed in the first side of the case; wherein: each of the single channel light emitting assemblies is connected to the first optical-fiber array connector via a transmitting optical fiber line; and each of the single channel light receiving assemblies is connected to the second optical-fiber array connector via a receiving optical fiber line.
