Abstract:
A receiver optical module is disclosed where the receiver optical module includes a coupling unit, an optical de-multiplexer, and an optical attenuator. The coupling unit secures an optical fiber. The optical de-multiplexer de-multiplexes a wavelength multiplexed optical beam that is provided from the optical fiber and multiplexes optical signals. The optical attenuator attenuates the wavelength multiplexed signal. A feature of the receiver optical module is that the optical de-multiplexer has a plurality of multi-layered dielectric films each pass one of the optical signals and has a rectangular shape with a shorter side and a longer side; while, the optical attenuator provides a shutter that is movable along the longer side of the multi-layered dielectric films.

Claim (Index 1):
A receiver optical module, comprising:\n a coupling unit that receives an optical fiber providing a wavelength multiplexed signal multiplexing optical signals each having a wavelength specific thereto and different from each other; an optical de-multiplexer that optically couples with the optical fiber and de-multiplexes the wavelength multiplexed signal provided from the optical fiber, the optical de-multiplexer providing a plurality of multi-layered dielectric films each passing one of the respective optical signals but reflecting other of the optical signals, the multi-layered dielectric films having a rectangular plane shape with a longer side and a shorter side; and an optical attenuator provided between the coupling unit and the optical de-multiplexer, the optical attenuator attenuating the wavelength multiplexed signal and having a shutter movable along the longer side of the multi-layered dielectric film.
