Abstract

A pluggable transceiver module is disclosed and includes first and second ends, lower and upper housings, and a thermal energy generating component. The first end plugs into a network device. The second end is opposite the first end and is located external to the network device when the first end is plugged into the network device. The lower housing enhouses a printed circuit board. The upper housing includes a heat sink and floats above the lower housing such that the upper housing is not fastened to and/or resting on the lower housing. At least side portions of the upper housing do not contact sides of the lower housing. The upper housing is held in place relative to the lower housing. A thermal energy generating component is mounted on the printed circuit board and supports the first heat sink, which dissipates thermal energy received from the thermal energy generating component.
