Abstract

An optical fiber holder is disclosed herein that includes at least one confinement slot for routing intermediate optical fibers within a housing of an optical assembly module, and preferably, a plurality of confinement slots for maintaining a target/nominal fiber bending radius for one or more intermediate optical fibers within the housing. Preferably, the optical fiber holder is disposed within the housing of an optical subassembly between an optical component, e.g., a TOSA arrangement and/or ROSA arrangement, and optical coupling receptacles, e.g., LC coupling receptacles, for optically coupling with external fibers for sending and/or receiving optical signals.
