An optical transmission link has both a transmitter module and a receiver module operable under uncooled conditions, i.e., without the need of costly cooling equipment, such as thermoelectric coolers. The optical transmission system includes both a semiconductor laser diode source and an optical receiver module that are both designed to operate uncooled under high frequencies (e.g., GHz range) over a wide temperature range without significant changes in signal bandwidth and at temperatures in excess of 125 DEG C. Compensation is provided to reduce the effect of photodiode noise and amplifier noise. In addition, temperature compensation can be provided that provides for overall reduction in receiver noise across the bandwidth of the receiver module through maintenance of a temperature environment optimizing receiver performance.
