Abstract

See full text

In accordance with an embodiment, a transmitter optical subassembly (TOSA) having one or more recessed mounting regions is disclosed in order to decrease the overall footprint of the TOSA within an optical transceiver housing. The TOSA includes a housing having at least a first sidewall and a second sidewall disposed on opposite sides of the housing relative to each other. The housing further includes a first step portion defined by the first sidewall and a first recessed mounting region extending from about the first step portion along the longitudinal axis towards the second end. The first recessed mounting region is defined by an external surface of the first sidewall that is offset from a surface defining the first step portion by a first offset distance. The first recessed mounting region includes at least one sidewall opening to couple to optical component assemblies.
