Abstract:
1. An optical subassembly positioning plate comprising: a substantially flat body defining at least one edge; a port defined in the body, the port being configured to receive and secure an optical subassembly in an x-direction and a y-direction when the optical subassembly positioning plate is positioned within an optoelectronic transceiver module; a plurality of fingers defined along at least one edge of the body, each of the plurality of fingers configured to contact a shell of the optoelectronic transceiver module so as to bias a flange of the optical subassembly against a portion of the shell of the optoelectronic transceiver module such that the optical subassembly is substantially retained in a z-direction when the optical subassembly positioning plate is positioned within the optoelectronic transceiver module.
