Abstract:
A photonic transceiver apparatus in QSFP package. The apparatus includes a case having a base member, two partial side members, and a lid member to provide a spatial volume with an opening at a back end of the base member. Additionally, the apparatus includes a PCB, installed inside the spatial volume over the base member having a pluggable electrical connector at the back end. Further, the apparatus includes multiple optical transmitting devices in mini-transmit-optical-sub-assembly package, each being mounted on a common support structure and having a laser output port in reversed orientation toward the back end. Furthermore, the apparatus includes a silicon photonics chip, including a fiber-to-silicon attachment module, mounted on the PCB and coupled to a modulation driver module and a trans-impedance amplifier module. Moreover, the apparatus includes a pair of optical input/output ports being back connected to the fiber-to-silicon attachment module.

Claim (Index 1):
A optical network system apparatus for opto-electric communication comprising:\n an electrical pluggable slot configured to plug a photonic transceiver, the photonic transceiver comprising:\n a case, comprising a base member extended from a first end to a second end of the case, two partial side members coupled to the base member, a lid member coupled to the two partial side members and the base member to provide a spatial volume with an opening at the second end; \n a member, installed inside the spatial volume on the base member, including a board body extended from a first edge to a second edge, the second edge being near the second end, the board body comprising an array of metallic pin stripes at the second edge to form a pluggable electrical interface connector; \n an optical transmitting device mounted on the member near the first edge with corresponding laser output port aimed toward the second edge; \n a silicon photonics chip, mounted on the member, including a fiber-to-silicon attachment module to couple with a first fiber from each of the laser output port; \n an optical input port and an optical output port disposed together at the first end and respectively back connected via a pair of second fibers to the fiber-to-silicon attachment module; and \n an input fiber terminated with a first connector coupled to the optical input port and an output fiber terminated with a second connector coupled to the optical output port.
