Abstract
A hermetically sealed optical transmitter module for use in an optical transceiver converting and coupling an information-containing electrical signal with an optical fiber. A plurality of semiconductor lasers are provided on a common support in the housing for converting between an information-containing electrical signal and a modulated optical signal corresponding to the electrical signal according to a standardized optical communications protocol, such as the IEEE 802.3ae 10 Gigabit BASE LX4 physical layer.
