Abstract
An optical module includes an optical transmission device including a heating element, an optical element, an optical cable and an optical coupling unit that performs optical coupling between the optical element and one end of the optical cable; and a container that houses the heating element, the optical element, the optical coupling unit, and a portion including the one end of the optical cable, the container having an opening located between the heating element and the optical coupling unit in a direction in which the heating element and the optical coupling unit are arranged, the container having a portion located closer to the optical coupling unit than the opening in the arrangement direction wherein the portion is sealed.
Claims8
An optical module comprising:
- an optical transmission device including a heating element, an optical element, an optical cable, and
- an optical coupling unit that performs optical coupling between the optical element and one end of the optical cable;
- and a container that houses the heating element, the optical element, the optical coupling unit, and a portion including the one end of the optical cable, the container having an opening located between the heating element and the optical coupling unit in a direction in which the heating element and the optical coupling unit are arranged, the container having a portion located closer to the optical coupling unit than the opening in the arrangement direction wherein the portion is sealed.
A liquid immersion system comprising:
- a tank containing a coolant;
- and
- an optical module including an optical transmission device that includes a heating element, an optical element, an optical cable, and an optical coupling unit performing optical coupling between the optical element and one end of the optical cable, and a container that houses the heating element, the optical element, the optical coupling unit, and a portion including the one end of the optical cable, the container having an opening located between the heating element and the optical coupling unit in a direction in which the heating element and the optical coupling unit are arranged, the container having a portion located closer to the optical coupling unit than the opening in the arrangement direction wherein the portion is sealed, the optical module being immersed in the coolant in an orientation in which the heating element is located below the optical coupling unit.
