  • Patent number: 7139449
    Abstract: An optical transmitter module includes light-emitting devices with coaxial type packaging. Coplanar anode and cathode electrodes of one light-emitting device are mounted on a substrate so that heat generated from the light-emitting device can be effectively dissipated through the substrate. Furthermore, the direct electric connection between the light-emitting device and the substrate eliminates the requirement of wire boding for electric connection, increasing the performance of the optical transmitter module in high speed signal operation.

  • Publication number: 20060099375
    Abstract: A multi-facet decoration assembly is provided, comprising multiple polygonal grates with equilateral sides. Each corner of the polygonal grate has one catch pin and one slot pin disposed on the underside. This unique decoration ball assembly can be easily assembled by snapping multiple polygonal grates together so that all catch pins and slot pins on all polygonal grates are locked against each other. The decoration ball can be easily stored away when the polygonal grates and the panels are knocked down occupying only a small space, thus the storage and transportation costs can be reduced considerably.

  • Publication number: 20060067698
    Abstract: The present invention is an optical fiber system and method for carrying both CATV and Ethernet signals. The digital signals are translated into higher band by a direct up/down conversion so that analog signals and digital signals are treated as different frequency bands of electrical signals. Then, all the signals are mixed/divided by a power combiner/divider. And then, by using optoelectronic devices, the signals are processed with optoelectronic conversion. The converted optical signals are transmitted in a fiber or a related optical channel having low channel loss yet high capacity. To sum up, the present invention can transmit digital signals together with analog signals in a single wavelength to save the cost of an optical signal system and to provide a convenience on rearranging the system.
