An assembly includes an optical device including an optical component and a plurality of supporting electrical components, a housing that is configured to house the optical component, a cap that is configured to substantially enclose the optical component in the housing, and a mounting member that is configured to removably electrically and mechanically connect the optical component to a printed board. In some examples, the housing does not house any electrical components of the optical device. The housing is physically separate from the mounting member and is configured to removably mechanically connect to the mounting member. The housing and mounting member define an electrically conductive pathway from the optical component to the printed board. When the cap is mechanically disconnected from the housing, the optical component may be exposed. The cap may also be configured to mechanically and optically connect an optical fiber assembly to the optical component.
