ABSTRACT:
An electro-optic module with an optical coupling efficiency, the module comprising a receptacle assembly, wherein an end of the receptacle assembly is capable of receiving a light guiding element and wherein an opposite end of the receptacle assembly is capable of receiving an optical lens assembly positioned therein the receptacle assembly. An optoelectric package which includes an optoelectronic device is capable of being affixed to the opposite end of the receptacle assembly wherein an optical axis extends from the end to the opposite end of the receptacle assembly such that the light guiding element and the optoelectric device are in communication through a lens included in the optical lens assembly. The optical lens assembly is held fixedly in place against an inward periphery of the receptacle assembly such that a distance between the lens and the optoelectronic device can be adjusted to adjust the optical coupling efficiency.
