Claim 23:
24. An apparatus comprising:
a thermal transfer plate configured for dissipating heat from an electronic component or a photonic component associated with a substrate and die package;
a heat transfer element coupled to the thermal transfer plate; and
a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) module comprising a plurality of air movement cells operable to push air over the heat transfer element;
wherein the thermal transfer plate comprises at least one path for transmitting power to the electronic component, and at least one path for an optical signal to the photonic component, wherein the at least one path for transmitting power extends through a first surface of the thermal transfer plate to a second surface of the thermal transfer plate, and wherein the at least one path for the optical signal extends through the substrate and die package, and extends from the first surface of the thermal transfer plate to the second surface of the thermal transfer plate.
