Abstract
An optical transceiver receives first light having a first wavelength and also receives second light having a second wavelength. The optical transceiver has a first surface for transmitting the first light along a first path and a second surface for reflecting the second light along or from the first path. The optical transceiver also receives third light having the first wavelength, and the first surface reflects the third light along a second path. The first and second surfaces may be combined as one surface.
