Abstract
An optoelectronic module has an optoelectronic receiver or transmitter supported in optical alignment with optical fibers on a common substrate assembly. The module is optically prealigned and can be mounted through a hole in an enclosure containing transmitter or receiver circuits to make a complete optoelectronic package. The module may be hermetically and electromagnetically sealed to the enclosure. In one form of the invention, the optical fibers terminate at a rear face of the module, and the module can be coupled to a conventional fiber optic connector.
