Optoelectronic system with a wedge-shaped adapter

Optoelectronic systems with an adapter and methods of manufacturing or assembling the same are provided. An example of an optoelectronic system according to the present disclosure includes a substrate, an interposer, an electronic component disposed on the interposer, and an optical component. The optoelectronic system includes a ferrule and an optical fiber coupled to the ferrule. The optoelectronic system also includes an optical socket configured to receive the ferrule therein. The optoelectronic system further includes an adapter positioned between the interposer and the optical socket. The adapter has a wedge-shaped configuration such that the ferrule is disposed at a non-zero angle relative to the interposer when the ferrule is received in the optical socket and the optical socket is coupled to the adapter.

Complementary reverse order filters

In example implementations, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes an optical transmission component and an optical reception component. The optical transmission component includes a plurality of lasers and a transmit filter. The plurality of lasers each emit a different wavelength of light. The transmit filter includes a plurality of different regions that correspond to one of the different wavelengths of light emitted by the plurality of lasers. The optical reception component includes a plurality of photodiodes and a complementary reverse order (CRO) filter. The CRO filter includes a same plurality of different regions as the transmit filter in a reverse order.
