Abstract
Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) containment assemblies for use in optoelectronic modules. In one example embodiment, an EMR containment assembly includes an EMR shield and a mounting spring plate attached to the EMR shield. The EMR shield includes a first substantially flat body defining at least one edge, a plurality of optical ports defined in the first body; and a plurality of fingers defined along at least one edge of the first body. The fingers are configured to bias against a housing of an optoelectronic module. The mounting spring plate includes a second substantially flat body defining at least one edge, an optical window defined in the second body, and a plurality of leaf springs defined along at least one edge of the second body. The leaf springs are configured to bias against an alignment guide positioned within the optoelectronic module.
