  • Publication number: 20170212366
    Abstract: An optical transceiver that installs an optical modulator with the Mach-Zehnder type and made of primarily semiconductor materials, and an Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (fiber amplifier) is disclosed. The fiber amplifier and the MZ modulator, in addition to a wavelength tunable laser diode, an intelligent coherent receiver, and a polarization maintaining splitter, are installed within a compact case following the standard of CFP2. The fiber amplifier provides a wavelength tunable filter that passes light amplified by the fiber amplifier but eliminates amplified stimulated emission in regions out of the wavelength band of the light.

  • Patent number: 8525610
    Abstract: An electronic component is mounted on a substrate so as to be in contact with a non-reciprocal circuit element. Therefore, there is no risk of the electronic component, which is arranged so as to be in contact with the non-reciprocal circuit element, being displaced as a result of being shifted by the magnetic force of permanent magnets included in the non-reciprocal circuit element and displacement of the electronic component as a result of being shifted by the magnetic force of the permanent magnets can be prevented. Therefore, since there is no risk of the electronic component being displaced by being shifted by the magnetic force of the permanent magnets, a space in which to mount a member that would function as an electromagnetic shield, such as a yoke, need not be provided on the substrate and the composite electronic module can be reduced in size and profile.

  • Patent number: 8510572
    Abstract: Disclosed is a secure remote access system for improving convenience of a user by utilizing a storage device including an anti-tampering device as a user authentication device in the secure remote access system for making access and execution of job while a user is making the encrypted communication to a server from an unspecified client. Usability can be improved and thereby the job executing function can be used smoothly at the internal and external sides of the working office by providing a server client system where the server can be manipulated remotely by distributing a storage device loading the authorized anti-tampering device to users, connecting the storage device to unspecified clients by users, and using the authentication information and application stored in the storage device. A remote access system having improved security and convenient during usage of client from the user can also be provided by reducing the secret information remaining in the manipulated client.

  • Patent number: 8502616
    Abstract: In a composite electronic module, electronic components including magnetic substances are mounted on a substrate such that lines of magnetic force generated by a permanent magnet of a non-reciprocal circuit element are concentrated to the non-reciprocal circuit element side. Therefore, even when a metal yoke is omitted, for example, it is possible to reduce the number of lines of magnetic force generated by the permanent magnet and which leak to the outside of the substrate, and hence to significantly reduce and prevent the influence of a magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet upon other electronic components that are arranged near or adjacent to the composite electronic module around the substrate.

  • Patent number: 8503319
    Abstract: A data processor which can flexibly control bandwidth settings and setting changes is provided. The data processor controls bandwidth allocation to electronic devices participating in a communication network. The data processor has a communication section used to communicate with the electronic devices and a bandwidth management section which performs control to variably allocate, based on requests from the electronic devices, bandwidths to be used for communication by the electronic devices. In cases where an additional device is added to the communication network and an adequate bandwidth cannot be allocated to the additional device, the bandwidth management section requests another electronic device transmitting video data of a resolution higher than corresponding to the user's intention to change its data format so as to allow an adequate bandwidth to be allocated to the additional device.

  • Patent number: 7934006
    Abstract: A device management system is provided which is used in a client/server architecture system, enabling safe sharing of a device without compromising user convenience. In a case where the device which is connected to a client is accessed from a server, in order that the device connected to the client can be used from the server by merely connecting the device to the client without performing another operation, a filter is provided on the client side, and a pseudo bus driver is provided on the server side. The filter in the client exclusively controls client operations to the device and server operations to the device. The pseudo bus driver virtually functions as a device driver between a communication unit for the client and the application in the server.

  • Publication number: 20110069966
    Abstract: An optical transceiver operable in multi transmission rates is disclosed. The optical transceiver includes an EDC to compensate the deformation appeared in the input signal due to the dispersion of the optical transmission line. The EDC operates as the transversal filter for higher transmission rates, while it operates as the low-pass-filter for lower transmission rates. In medium transmission rates, the EDC passes through the input signal.
