Abstract
A transceiver assembly includes a frame section, a rigid printed circuit board, a flex circuit, and an edge connector. The frame section includes a flex circuit layer for use in carrying data, and control and power signals, and an optoelectronic device. The rigid printed circuit board includes a first rigid printed circuit board layer and a flex circuit layer for use in carrying data, and control and power signals. The flex circuit is for carrying data, and control and power signals which flexibly links the rigid printed circuit board to the frame section and forms the flex circuit layers in the rigid printed circuit board and the frame section. The edge connector is formed on one end of the printed circuit board by a plurality of connection pads disposed along one edge of the printed circuit board.
