Abstract

A parallel optical communications module includes a top lens and a bottom lens that are spaced from one another to inhibit mechanical forces acting upon the top lens from being transferred to the bottom lens, which is optically aligned with an opto-electronic light source or light detector. The top lens has a reflector portion configured to redirect the optical signals between the bottom lens and one or more optical fibers.
