Abstract

The present disclosure provides an optical connection system which comprises optical components that include a plurality of vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) for emitting modulated light in response to applied electrical signals and a plurality of receivers for receiving the emitted light. The optical components are arranged in at least two monolithically integrated modules each comprising at least two of the optical components. The optical connection system further comprises at least one light guiding component for guiding the light between the VCSELs and the receivers. The optical connection system also comprises coupling elements for coupling the at least one light guiding component to the monolithically integrated modules such that in use light is transmitted between modules via the at least one light guiding component.
