Abstract
An opto-electronic communication module includes a housing, an electro-optical assembly, and a retainer that helps maintain alignment of an optical port. The electro-optical assembly includes a circuit substrate, an opto-electronic communication device mounted on the circuit substrate, and an optics module having an optical connection portion extending into the opening of the housing to define the optical port. The retainer can be, for example, a clip that contacts the housing and fits over the optical connection portion of the optics module to maintain the optical connection portion in alignment with the opening of the housing.
