The volume of optical module is less, in order in optical module, to increase standby light receiving unit and Optical Transmit Unit, need to adopt the optical device and the electronic switch of as far as possible little encapsulation, and under the prerequisite of compatible SFP/SFP+/XFP cage, and do not influence under the prerequisite of plug and rack fiber, optical module length can suitably extend, wherein, cage is meant the device of fixed light module, and profile and cage are similar, so be commonly referred to as cage.
In order in the less optical module of volume, to realize out at least 4 tail optical fibers, can will stretch out outside the body of optical module with the optical fiber that each light emission component and optical fiber receive module are connected one to one respectively, the end that these optical fiber stretch out the optical module body is connected with optical fiber interface; Promptly can adopt the method for direct whipping fibre to be implemented in the optical module of small size and go out at least 4 tail optical fibers.
In order in the less optical module of volume, to realize out at least 4 tail optical fibers, can also adopt MPO (Multi-Fiber Push-On, the multipath optical transmission) scheme, for example: the output of each Optical Transmit Unit links to each other with external fiber by the MPO interface with the input of light receiving unit, be specifically as follows: each light emission component links to each other with external fiber by the MPO interface with optical fiber receive module, and this MPO interface can be 4 cores or 8 cores.
Specifically describe the method flow that the optical module that uses present embodiment to provide carries out optical layer protective below in conjunction with Fig. 3; the schematic diagram of the optical module that Fig. 3 provides for one embodiment of the invention; wherein; controller is example with MCU; transducer and selector switch are example with first electric switch and second electric switch respectively; memory is example with EEPEOM; laser driver 211 and laser driver 231 are example with LDD1 and LDD2 respectively; amplifier 311 and amplifier 331 are example with LA1 and LA2 respectively; light emission component 213 and light emission component 233 are example with TOSA1 and TOSA2 respectively; optical fiber receive module 313 and optical fiber receive module 333 are example with ROSA1 and ROSA2 respectively, and concrete optical layer protective flow process is:
MCU controls the two-way of first electric switch and opens simultaneously, promptly first electric switch drives one road TX signal of telecommunication and is the two-way TX signal of telecommunication, and this two-way TX signal of telecommunication is transferred to LDD1 and LDD2 respectively, by LDD1 and LDD2 is respectively the TX light signal that TOSA can discern with the TX electrical signal conversion, and two-way TX light signal is transferred to TOSA1 and TOSA2 respectively, respectively two-way TX optical signal transmission is carried out optical communication to external fiber by TOSA1 and TOSA2; Wherein, first electric switch has two opens function, and the work of overall optical modular system is in the pattern of dual transmitting and receiving;
Second electric switch is subjected to MCU control, and when not switching, second electric switch receives RX signal (for example the optical channel of LA1 and ROSA1 correspondence is a main optical path, and the optical channel of LA2 and ROSA2 correspondence is for being equipped with optical channel) from LA1 and ROSA1; LA1 is converted to the RX signal of telecommunication with the RX light signal that ROSA1 receives, and by second electric switch RX signal of telecommunication is transferred to external equipment then;
MCU contacts with LA1, ROSA1 and LA2, ROSA2 respectively, MCU real-time or timing detection main optical path and the state that is equipped with optical channel, MCU can determine whether main optical path normally also can determine the availability of optical channel fully according to testing result, MCU with detected main optical path and the state storage that is equipped with optical channel in EEPEOM, so that outer CPU obtains main optical path by the I2C interface and is equipped with the state information of optical channel; When main optical path takes place when unusual, MCU can detect main optical path los (dropout, loss of signal) signal;
After MCU detects main optical path los signal, MCU judges main optical path by detection and breaks down, and control second electric switch and switch, perhaps, when outer CPU was judged main optical path and broken down, outer CPU sent indication information to MCU, switches so that MCU controls second electric switch, switch to optical channel fully from main optical path, promptly receive the RX signal by LA2 and ROSA2; Wherein, outer CPU judges that process that main optical path breaks down can receive the state information of the main optical path that MCU sends according to the query requests of outer CPU for: outer CPU, perhaps outer CPU receives the detection information that other unit send, and outer CPU judges that according to above-mentioned state information or detection information main optical path breaks down.Thus, takes place when unusual, can control electric switch and switch to optical channel fully, and it is lower to transform the cost of optical module at main optical path, realized low-cost, carry out optical layer protective flexibly.
In the flow process of above-mentioned optical layer protective, if when main optical path breaks down, it is also unusual that outer CPU or MCU detect the state of current optical channel fully, when promptly detecting the los signal that is equipped with optical channel, then reports warning and forbid active and standby switching.Outer CPU or MCU also can regularly inquire about the fully state of optical channel, when detecting that optical channel is unusual fully, report warning and forbid active and standby switching, so that operating personnel are known the state of active and standby optical channel timely.
In the embodiment of the invention, a main optical path and a plurality of alternate channel can be arranged, not limit the quantity of alternate channel, promptly not limit the Optical Transmit Unit and the quantity of light receiving unit fully fully at this.
The optical module of the embodiment of the invention by in an optical module active and standby path being set, makes when primary path breaks down, and can carry out the switching of active and standby path by electric switch, and detects the availability of primary channel in real time, guarantees the reliability of active and standby switching; And in an optical module, the failure rate of MCU and EEPROM is very low, and the optical device that easily lost efficacy is independent of each other, so the inefficacy of single channel passage is very little to the influence of another paths, has improved the reliability of optical layer protective thus; And present embodiment also need not to increase the interface of transmission equipment and external equipment, gets final product and only optical module is improved cheaply; Thus the optical module that provides of the embodiment of the invention can realize flexibly, optical layer protective cheaply.
