As shown in fig. 2, the first lens array 20 and the second lens array 30 include not only lenses (indicated by thick curves in the drawing) but also a support body supporting the lenses. In this embodiment, the support and the lens are made of the same material and are integrally formed by a mold, and therefore, the thick curve shown in fig. 2 can be understood as a lens curved surface.
More specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the first lens array 20 is an L-shaped structure, and the beam splitter 40 is obliquely disposed on the first lens array 20 and spans two surfaces of the first lens array 20. For convenience of description, the two surfaces are referred to as a first surface 21 and a second surface 22, the first surface 21 and the second surface 22 both face the beam splitter 40, and the first optical signal is incident to the beam splitter 40 through the first surface 21 and is incident to the second surface 22 after being reflected by the beam splitter 40.

In a preferred design, the angles of the first optical signal incident on the first surface 21 and the second surface 22 are both different from 90 degrees, so as to avoid the interference caused by the reflection of the first optical signal. Generally, the first optical signal is horizontally incident, and therefore, in order to realize that the first optical signal is not vertically incident to the first surface 21 and the second surface 22, both the first surface 21 and the second surface 22 are inclined surfaces. Similarly, the second optical signal transmitted from the beam splitter 40 enters the entrance surface 32 of the second lens array 30 in a state of not 90 degrees, and is reflected by the reflection surface 31 of the second lens array 30, and then is received by the receiving device of the second optical signal in a state of not 90 degrees.

In addition, the first lens array 20 can be used alone in single-mode long parallel transmission applications.
The first lens array 20 is provided with a connection port, the connection port aligns with the optical fiber 70 and the lens, the connection port is connected with the optical fiber 70, and the first optical signal and the second optical signal are both input and output to the first lens array 20 through the optical fiber 70.
