Abstract

An optoelectronic interconnection system is for use in optical communications. The optoelectronic interconnection system may include a substrate having a main portion and a foldable portion formed on a substrate of a board for positioning an optically active device connected to the foldable portion. The foldable portion is adapted to be folded with respect to the main portion into a desired optical coupling orientation for which an optical operative axis (OA) of the optically active device arranged therein is substantially aligned with an optical transmission axis (TT′) that is other than perpendicular to the main portion. A holding fixture holds the foldable portion in the desired optical coupling orientation.
