Abstract
Example implementations relate to mounting optoelectronic devices and wavelength-division multiplexing optical connectors. For example, an implementation includes a transparent interposer having an integrated plurality of lenses. A plurality of optoelectronic devices are mounted to a bottom surface of the transparent interposer, each of the optoelectronic devices being paired to a respective lens of the plurality of lenses. The bottom surface of the transparent interposer is mounted to a substrate within a region of an optical socket. The optical socket receives a filter-based wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) optical connector. Each lens of the plurality of lenses is paired to a respective filter of the WDM optical connector when the WDM optical connector is mated to the optical socket.
