Abstract
A method for assembling an optoelectronic package assembly includes engaging a connector holder with a substrate, the connector holder defining an engagement feature and the substrate including optical waveguides, engaging a connector of a fiber array unit with the engagement feature the connector holder where the engagement feature retains the connector and where the fiber array unit includes the connector and optical fibers coupled to the connector, optically coupling the optical fibers to the optical waveguides of the substrate, heating the connector holder, the fiber array unit, the substrate, and a solder positioned between the substrate and a base substrate, where the heating is sufficient to melt the solder, and cooling the solder to couple the substrate to the base substrate.
