Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A modular device for an optical communication module configured to be coupled to an optical transmission medium. The modular device may include a first edge and a second edge and N number of electrical circuit channels between the first and second edges. Each electrical circuit channel may include at least one element configured to provide functionality for communicating optical signals through the optical transmission medium. The modular device may also have a width between the first and second edges so that each of the N number of electrical circuit channels of C number of modular devices aligns with one of P number of interface channels of an opto-electrical interface configured to be coupled to the optical transmission medium when C equals P/N and C is a whole number greater than zero.
