Abstract
A printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) carrier for enclosing an optical transceiver PCBA. The PCBA carrier includes a base portion including one or more first connection members, the base portion being configured to receive an optical transceiver PCBA and a top portion including one or more second connection members configured to couple to the first connection members to thereby secure the top portion to the base portion, the top portion being configured to reside above the optical transceiver PCBA when the first and second connection members are coupled. The PCBA carrier is further configured to enclose the optical transceiver PCBA when the base and top portions are coupled to provide a solid structure for the optical transceiver PCBA without the need for a separate optical transceiver module housing.
