Fiber Optic Databus

• Bi-directional remateable multiple optical taps
• Integrates both electrical & optical devices at interface
• Optical signals appear at multiple electrical-optical terminations simultaneously
• Serial or parallel signal transmissions
• Combination of singular or multiple transmitter/receptors

Worse case: Transmitter output power / receptor detectable power

• Transmitter = 500 microWatt
• Receptor    = 5 microWatt
• Number of splits = 3

Best case:   Transmitter output power / receptor detectable Power

• Transmitter = 1500 microWatt
• Receptor    = 0.5 microWatt
• Number of splits = 7
