Abstract
An optoelectronic transceiver assembly includes a plurality of optical transmission devices coupled to a first end of a multimode optical fiber core. Each of the plurality of optical transmission devices generates light at a different wavelength with respect to one another. A wavelength demultiplexing device is coupled to a second end of the multimode optical fiber core, and a plurality of optical detection devices is in proximity to the demultiplexing device. The optical detection devices receive light transmitted by the plurality of optical transmission devices.
