Abstract
An electro-optic conversion module (30) is disclosed, including: an electric interface unit (31) configured to receive multiple electric signals to be converted and transmit each electric signal to be converted to a corresponding electro-optic conversion unit (32); electro-optic conversion units (32) configured to convert the electric signals from the electric interface unit (31) into optical signals; a multiplexer unit (33) configured to multiplex the optical signals from the electro-optic conversion units (32) into a wavelength division multiplexed signal; and an optical interface unit (37). An optic-electro conversion module and the conversion methods are also disclosed in the present disclosure. With the electro-optic conversion module (30), the optic-electro conversion module and the conversion methods of the present disclosure, the electro-optic conversions for multiple electric signals or the optic-electro conversions for multiple optical signals may be achieved in the same module.
