In the optical communication technology, light is used to carry information to be transmitted, and an optical signal carrying the information is transmitted to information processing equipment such as a computer through information transmission equipment such as an optical fiber or an optical waveguide, so as to complete information transmission. Because the optical signal has the passive transmission characteristic when being transmitted through the optical fiber or the optical waveguide, the information transmission with low cost and low loss can be realized. Further, since a signal transmitted by an information transmission device such as an optical fiber or an optical waveguide is an optical signal and a signal that can be recognized and processed by an information processing device such as a computer is an electrical signal, it is necessary to perform interconversion between the electrical signal and the optical signal in order to establish an information connection between the information transmission device such as an optical fiber or an optical waveguide and the information processing device such as a computer.

The optical module realizes the function of interconversion between the optical signal and the electrical signal in the technical field of optical fiber communication. The optical module comprises an optical port and an electrical port, the optical module realizes optical communication with information transmission equipment such as optical fibers or optical waveguides and the like through the optical port, realizes electrical connection with an optical network terminal (such as an optical modem) through the electrical port, and the electrical connection is mainly used for realizing power supply, I2C signal transmission, data signal transmission, grounding and the like; the optical network terminal transmits the electric signal to the computer and other information processing equipment through a network cable or a wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi).

Fig. 1 is a connection diagram of an optical communication system according to some embodiments. As shown in fig. 1, the optical communication system mainly includes a remote server 1000, a local information processing device 2000, an optical network terminal 100, an optical module 200, an optical fiber 101, and a network cable 103;

one end of the optical fiber 101 is connected to the remote server 1000, and the other end is connected to the optical network terminal 100 through the optical module 200. The optical fiber itself can support long-distance signal transmission, for example, signal transmission of several kilometers (6 kilometers to 8 kilometers), on the basis of which if a repeater is used, ultra-long-distance transmission can be theoretically achieved. Therefore, in a typical optical communication system, the distance between the remote server 1000 and the optical network terminal 100 may be several kilometers, tens of kilometers, or hundreds of kilometers.

One end of the network cable 103 is connected to the local information processing device 2000, and the other end is connected to the optical network terminal 100. The local information processing apparatus 2000 may be any one or several of the following apparatuses: router, switch, computer, cell-phone, panel computer, TV set etc..

The physical distance between the remote server 1000 and the optical network terminal 100 is greater than the physical distance between the local information processing apparatus 2000 and the optical network terminal 100. The connection between the local information processing device 2000 and the remote server 1000 is completed by the optical fiber 101 and the network cable 103; and the connection between the optical fiber 101 and the network cable 103 is completed by the optical module 200 and the optical network terminal 100.

The optical module 200 includes an optical port and an electrical port. The optical port is configured to connect with the optical fiber 101, so that the optical module 200 establishes a bidirectional optical signal connection with the optical fiber 101; the electrical port is configured to be accessed into the optical network terminal 100, so that the optical module 200 establishes a bidirectional electrical signal connection with the optical network terminal 100. The optical module 200 converts an optical signal and an electrical signal to each other, so that a connection is established between the optical fiber 101 and the optical network terminal 100. For example, an optical signal from the optical fiber 101 is converted into an electrical signal by the optical module 200 and then input to the optical network terminal 100, and an electrical signal from the optical network terminal 100 is converted into an optical signal by the optical module 200 and input to the optical fiber 101.

The optical network terminal 100 includes a housing (housing) having a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and an optical module interface 102 and a network cable interface 104 provided on the housing.

The optical module 200 is connected to the network cable 103 via the optical network terminal 100. For example, the optical network terminal 100 transmits an electrical signal from the optical module 200 to the network cable 103, and transmits a signal from the network cable 103 to the optical module 200, so that the optical network terminal 100 can monitor the operation of the optical module 200 as an upper computer of the optical module 200.

The remote server 1000 establishes a bidirectional signal transmission channel with the local information processing device 2000 through the optical fiber 101, the optical module 200, the optical network terminal 100, and the network cable 103.

Fig. 2 is a structural diagram of an optical network terminal according to some embodiments, and fig. 2 only shows a structure of the optical module 100 related to the optical module 200 in order to clearly show a connection relationship between the optical module 200 and the optical network terminal 100. As shown in fig. 2, the optical network terminal 100 further includes a PCB circuit board 105 disposed in the housing, a cage 106 disposed on a surface of the PCB circuit board 105, and an electrical connector disposed inside the cage 106. The electrical connector is configured to access an electrical port of the optical module 200; the heat sink 107 has a projection such as a fin that increases a heat radiation area.

The optical module 200 is inserted into a cage 106 of the optical network terminal 100, the cage 106 holds the optical module 200, and heat generated by the optical module 200 is conducted to the cage 106 and then diffused by a heat sink 107. After the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, an electrical port of the optical module 200 is connected to an electrical connector inside the cage 106, and thus the optical module 200 establishes a bidirectional electrical signal connection with the optical network terminal 100.

Alternatively, the opening 204 is located at an end of the optical module 200, and the opening 205 is located at a side of the optical module 200. Wherein, the opening 204 is an electrical port, and the gold finger of the circuit board 300 extends out of the electrical port 204 and is inserted into an upper computer (such as the optical network terminal 100); the opening 205 is an optical port configured to receive the external optical fiber 101, so that the optical fiber 101 is connected to an optical transceiver inside the optical module 200.

When the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage of the upper computer, the optical module 200 is fixed in the cage of the upper computer by the engaging member of the unlocking member 203; when the unlocking member 203 is pulled, the engaging member of the unlocking member 203 moves along with the unlocking member, and the connection relationship between the engaging member and the upper computer is changed, so that the engagement relationship between the optical module 200 and the upper computer is released, and the optical module 200 can be drawn out from the cage of the upper computer.
