Abstract
The optical pluggable transceiver according to the present invention has features of a good heat dissipating function with a simplified configuration thereby reducing the cost of not only the component used but also the process itself. The transceiver of the present invention comprises a resin frame, an optical subassembly, a electronic substrate, both mounted on the frame, a heat dissipating member, made of metal, for conducting and radiating heat generated by the electronic circuit on the substrate, and a metal cover for putting these frame, subassembly, substrate, and heat dissipating member therein. A greater part of the surface of the heat dissipating member exposes from the cover, accordingly, the efficiency for radiating heat may be improved. Moreover, these members of the frame, the optical subassembly, the substrate, the heat dissipating member, and the cover are assembled only by fitting without screwing or gluing. Accordingly, the manufacturing process of the transceiver can be extremely simplified.
