Abstract
An optical module includes a housing with a first end and a handle extending from the second end. A temperature indicator on the handle is thermally coupled to the housing to improve correlation with an optical module surface temperature. The temperature indicator provides an indication that the optical module surface temperature of the housing exceeds a predefined temperature limit.
