<p>A housing (60) for interconnecting an opto-electronic device with a ferrule (56) includes a base (62), a cover (64) cooperable with the base to define a chamber (66), an a mounting member (68) is characterized by a pivot arrangement disposed on the mounting member (68) and cooperating with at least one of the base (62) or the cover (64) for accommodating pivotal motion of the mounting member (68) to permit the axis of the mounting member (68) to translate in two orthogonal directions in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the chamber (66) and also to permit the tip of the mounting member (68) to displace in the perpendicular plane to align the axis of the mounting member (68) collinearly with the axis of the ferrule (56). The housing (60) also includes an elastomeric board mount (70) disposed in a sealing relationship between the base (62) and the cover (64) when the same are conjoined and arranged to seal legs on a substrate that extend through the elastomeric board mount (70).</p>
