Abstract: Present thermal solutions to conduct heat from pluggable optical modules into heat sinks use a metal heat sink attached with a spring clip. The interface between the pluggable module and the heat sink is simple metal-on-metal contact, which is inherently a poor thermal interface and limits heat dissipation from the optical module. Heat dissipation from pluggable optical modules is enhanced by the application of thermally conductive fibers, such as an advanced carbon nanotube velvet. The solution improves heat dissipation while preserving the removable nature of the optical modules.
