Abstract: A device which is surface mountable to a printed circuit board. The device includes a housing, an optical sub-assembly, and an electrical connector. The housing includes a fiber optic connector receptacle and a bottom side. The housing is made of an electrically conductive material. The optical sub-assembly is associated with the fiber optic connector receptacle. The electrical connector has contacts, where some portions of the contacts extend into the housing and some portions of the contacts extend from the housing. A portion of the contacts being in a same plane with the bottom side of the housing.
