Abstract
According to embodiments of the present invention, an optical transponder module generates heat when operating and a heat pipe disposed in the module body performs active heat transfer from a hot end of the optical transponder module to a cooler end of the optical transponder module. A heat pipe disposed in an external clip-in heat sink may remove heat from the optical transponder body.
