  • Patent number: 8805186
    Abstract: A single optical fiber repeater system is provided, including a first external device, for generating a first signal; a second external device, for generating a second signal; a first optical fiber sharing apparatus, for transporting the first signal and receiving the second signal; a second optical fiber sharing apparatus, for transporting the second signal and receiving the first signal; and an optical fiber, for transporting the first signal and the second signal. Second optical fiber sharing apparatus converts the wavelength of the second signal into a wavelength different from that of the first signal for transport in the optical fiber. First optical fiber sharing apparatus converts the wavelength of the second signal into a wavelength identical to the wavelength of the first signal and transports to the first external device.

  • Patent number: 8737782
    Abstract: A dynamic optical circulator device applicable to UPC-type and PC-type optical connectors is provided, including a first UPC/PC-type optical connector, a second UPC/PC-type optical connector, a third UPC/PC-type optical connector, a passive optical circulator, a reflected light detector and a transform element. The first, second and third UPC/PC-type optical connectors provide connections to optical fibers for receiving and transmitting optical signals. The first UPC/PC-type optical connector, the second UPC/PC-type optical connector and the third UPC/PC-type optical connector are connected to the three ports of the passive optical circulator, respectively, with the reflected light detector placed between the second UPC/PC-type optical connector and the second port of the passive optical circulator, while the transform element can be placed between any port of passive optical circulator and corresponding UPC-type and PC-type optical port.

Second optical fiber sharing apparatus converts wavelength of second signal into a wavelength different from first signal for transport in optical fiber. First optical fiber sharing apparatus converts wavelength of second signal into a wavelength identical to wavelength of first signal and transports to first external device. By transporting in different wavelengths over an optical fiber because transporting and receiving share same path, time delay is reduced, as well as the material used and labor cost.
