Abstract:
An example embodiment includes optoelectronic module. The optoelectronic module may include a lens assembly, a module board, heat-generating components, and a thermally conductive plate. The lens assembly may be secured to the module board. The module board may include a printed circuit board (PCB). The heat-generating components may be mounted to the PCB. The thermally conductive plate may be secured to a surface of the module board. The thermally conductive plate may define an opening that receives at least a portion of the lens assembly. The thermally conductive plate may be configured to absorb at least a portion of thermal energy generated during operation of the heat-generating components and to transfer the thermal energy away from the heat-generating components.
