    摘要: An optical transceiver device includes a baseplate including a set position for mounting an optical element, an alignment plate including a mounting unit, a first and a second reference hole. The device includes an optical-fiber fixing block configured to fixedly mount at least one of a lens unit and an optical fiber optically linked with the optical element and to include a first and a second post, and a housing for enclosing the optical-fiber fixing block and alignment plate. The second post is inserted into the second reference hole in a looser manner than inserting the first post into the first reference hole, and the set position is determined by a first baseline passing through the first and the second reference hole and by a second baseline intersecting with the first baseline and positioned on opposite side of the second reference hole with respect to the first reference hole.

    摘要: A structure for aligning an optical element includes a baseplate including a set position for mounting at least one optical element, a first reference hole, and a second reference hole spaced by a first distance from the first reference hole. The set position is determined by a first baseline that passes the first reference hole and the second reference hole and a second baseline that intersects with the first baseline at a second distance from the first reference hole on an opposite side to the second reference hole with respect to the first reference hole. The second distance is shorter than the first distance.

    摘要: An active optical cable is disclosed. According to the present disclosure, there is provided an active optical cable, having no complicated structure by obviating the need for a separate monitoring photodetector as was used for a typical optical transceiver, increasing light output-current linearity to improve optical coupling efficiency, generating a library of transmission/reception-related electro-optical characteristics of both optical modules so as to enable light outputted from a light source included in an optical transmitter to maintain high linearity over a wide range of temperatures, thereby reducing power consumption, and being applicable to a multi-level PAM technique involving at least four (4) levels.
