Systems and methods for communicating high speed signals in a communication device

Last updated:

Abstract:

A coupling module can be used to communicate high speed signals between an optical transceiver and a processing module of an optical communication device, such as an optical line termination (OLT) or an optical network unit (ONU). The coupling module can adjust the common mode voltage level of a differential signal output by the optical transceiver to the common mode voltage level required by the processing module. In addition, the coupling module splits each of the differential output signals from the optical transceiver and passes the split signals to both a high-pass filter and a low-pass filter that are connected in parallel. The outputs of the high-pass filter and the low-pass filter from different paths of the differential signal are cross-coupled and combined to provide a differential signal to the processing module.
