Description of the invention: [Technical field of invention] The optical system in the road is related to, in particular, the application to the passive optical network. [Prior Art] In the modern generation where the frequency is frequent, the network has become an important fiber. There are low loss, high capacity, no electromagnetic radiation, confidentiality 2 light, the road replaces the old age network is expected to be in the network technology of the optical network = mFiber tg service x, fftx), active isr tons a〇n ) It started to develop earlier, and its relevant standards are mature. However, due to the low light, the ambiguity, and the planning of passive light, it is expected to become the mainstream technology for providing fiber to the future. ^ f A schematic diagram of a passive optical network. As shown in Figure 1, the passive optical network is an early-to-multipoint (p〇int_t〇_multip〇int) architecture. Bit library = skin, fiber line office (0 ring - - io t., it is the user's residence or office tearing device 16 is called the client fffptol Netwwk Unit, ONU) 〇 OLT 12 and multiple 0NU (service ^ 糸 via fiber and optical branching (4) (4) _ (4) 14 are connected to each other. Between the 〇l and the optical branch f 14, the uplink and downlink letters From the single-fiber transmission. The connection between the device 14 and the 0-expansion can be regarded as a branch in the passive optical network. This example uses the passive optical network to include four branches. Case: In practical applications, one 〇LT can be connected to 32 or more 及 and 5 200848818 optical tributary is located in the method of identifying each branch. For example, for ί == specific, chopper , (4) 遽 ====== Do not set - light, tube can be _ every - financial branch of each reflecting the light, low cost, firmly installed in the network is Wei touch lang, = the solution Whether it is realized or not is very important. As should be known to those skilled in the art, the fiber grating _fbG) is used to reflect the light of the singular section. As disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 68, j. The traditional FBG speaks on the bracket = the fiber on both sides of the bracket is connected to the network in the form of a fusion method. In the application of the passive optical network, especially in the near-use, the above installation and The connection method is not convenient. FBG is also not easy to be properly maintained. Therefore, one of the scope of the present invention is to provide a low level of satisfaction. The present invention provides a light and crying member for identifying a branch of a passive optical network. The invention provides a support for the passive optical network. The optical device is mounted in the branch and includes a fiber grating and a set of ferrules for reflecting light of a particular band, wherein the specific & segment corresponds to the branch. The sleeve is used to hold the part or the part = the = fiber 200848818 by means of the socket - the fiber grating can be conveniently installed in the existing passive optical network block to monitor the fiber grating is the specific The band of the filament, the passive light, the , and the clerk can determine whether the branch has an abnormal condition. The advantages and spirit of this book can be further understood by the following statements and drawings. [Embodiment] = The present invention - the actual _ is - optical will. The optics comprise a total of ff and fiber gratings. The sleeve is adapted to receive part or all of the light (A) as a schematic of the socket. As shown by KA), the designer has a capillary (ca_iy) 21A and can make the capillary 21A large, the outer diameter of the fiber grating, to place some or all of the fiber optical thumb = capillary f 21A. towel. Figure 2 (8) The side of the wire (4). As shown in Fig. 2 (8), a fiber grating 22 is disposed in the capillary 21A. In practical applications, the material of 'ίΐ!^1 may include ceramics or metal or any material that can be used for connector sockets, and the fiber grating 22 and the sleeves are permeable to each other. As shown, the optical devices (20A to 20D) according to the present invention can be mounted between the optical splitters 14 and each of the 0 expansions. In order to achieve the identification, the fiber-grating gratings in each of the 11 optical components can be reflected differently. In this example, the optical fiber gratings of the optical device 20Α~ Λ1, λ2, λ3, and λ4. To avoid interference with real communication data, Μ, λ2, λ3, and λ4 are also different from the data band used to transmit data in the passive optical network. The data band transmitted by the OLT 12 to the line signals of the 0NUs is nm and 1550 nm, and the data band of the Λ signal (ie, the up signal) of the 1; ^= iW is 1310 legs. Therefore, λ Λ2, 3, and 4 are different from each other, and are also different from lame, 7 200848818 1550 nm and 1310 nm. For example, λ1, λ2, λ3, and λ4 can be set between 1560 nm and 1620 nm. The monitoring device 30 can be used to provide test signals of four wavelength bands λ1, λ2, λ3, and λ4, respectively, and a Wavdength Divisi () n Multiplexing, WDif) coupler 32 is used to mix the test signals into the signal. 〇LT 12 sent the information ^ number. Because As shown in FIG. 3, the #-band transmitted from the split-multiplexer 32 through the optical splitter 14 to each branch includes i49〇nm, λΐ, λ2, λ3, and λ4. The optical device 20 in FIG. It is used to identify the branch where 0Νυ16Α is located. Figure 2(C) is a schematic diagram of the fiber grating 22 in the optical device 20Α. As shown in Figure 2(c), the band of light entering the fiber grating from the left end contains l49〇. i dish, 1550nm, λΐ, λ2, λ3, and λ4. Among them, only the light of the band λ1 will be reflected back to the left, and the light of other bands can pass through the fiber grating and be outputted by the right end of the grating. Similarly, the optics 20β on the branch where the NU 16Β is located, only the light with the band λ2 will be reflected back to the split-wave multiplexer 32; for the 〇NU 16^==, the upper optics are heavy, only Light with a band of 会 will be reflected back to the division of labor = combiner 32; for the optics 2 〇 D on the branch where 〇 NU 16D is located, /, the light with band λ4 will be reflected back to the split multiplex coupler 32. The cockroaches are different, and the test results of the reflections of the branches are also inconsistent. The branch circuit can be distinguished by this. As shown in Fig. 3, the split-wave multiplexer 32 is also used to reflect the reflected signals of the bands Μ, 3, and λ4 with the upstream signals of the band i3i〇nm. The signal is passed from the signal transmitted from the optical splitter 14. The reflected signals of ', λ ΐ, λ2, λ3, and λ4 are transmitted to the monitoring device 3 〇 〇 31 〇 nm of the upstream signal is then transmitted to 〇 LT 12 . ^ The reflected signal for testing interferes with the OLT 12. In addition, the upward 200848818 Wengcai directly through the application according to the present application, the socket 21 shown in Fig. 2 (8) may comprise - a light film or a / M * surface layer - filter film for reflection / absorption I have specific bands, For example, the optical device 2〇A in Figure 3 is close to the 〇^ film that is used to reflect/absorb the light beams of the wavelengths λb, λ3, and M, and some The signal of the reflected band λ1 and the other test signals of λ2, λ3 and λ4 will not enter 〇NU 16Α, and the ONU16A causes interference. There are many places in the Twilight network, and there are many places in the Twilight network, which are β-optical connectors (like and photon adapters). The optical device according to the present invention can be directly connected to the connection and the connection. Connected to 'or replace the connector or mating ^. Thereby, no need to be heavy, the design of the connection of the valve 'can be added _ to identify ^ in the actual application, the surface of the two ends of the optical device 2 can pass the physics Contact (Physical Contact, PC) program for grinding or tilting physical contact (Angled ^
