The present invention relates to an optical transmission system having reduced the cost.
With the advance of the information industry, the demand for information and communication, which requires convergence with the communication network, is gradually increasing, and the sharing of information from the communication network, the enhancement of information expression, and the exchange of information beyond time and space are required. In order to meet the demand for information and communication, the transmission capacity needs to be expanded. To realize this, a high-speed information communication network capable of broadband transmission of tens to hundreds of Gbps is required, and optical communication using optical fiber is made possible.
In general, optical communication is to transmit data such as voice, text, picture, etc. at high speed by using optical fiber with low transmission loss, and transmits an optical signal, a transmitter that converts and transmits an electrical signal into an optical signal as a transmission medium. A repeater which amplifies in the middle, and a receiver which converts and outputs the received optical signal into an electrical signal.
In addition, there is a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) method for multiplexing a plurality of wavelengths or data channels using a single optical fiber, which enables multiple optical signal wavelengths to be simultaneously used as a single optical fiber during optical transmission.

And a second optical covalent coupler for distributing to the optical receiver of the repeater.
