Abstract
An optoelectronic module is disclosed. The optoelectronic module comprises an optical connector, a contact, an opto-electric assembly, and a casing. The opto-electric assembly has a carrier optically connected to the optical connector by a flexible optical fiber and electrically connected to the contact by a flexible cable. The casing at least partially encloses the opto-electric assembly, the optical connector, and the contact. An inner surface of a wall of the casing is attached to the carrier in a thermally conductive manner.
