Active optical cable and remote radio unit systems and kits are also described.

An optical device includes: a case; a sleeve attached to the case, the sleeve including a first through-hole penetrating between an inside and an outside of the case, and an inclined surface inclined with respect to a penetrating direction of the first through-hole, the inclined surface having an opening of the first through-hole; a first optical fiber including a core wire including a core and a clad, and a sheath configured to surround the core wire, wherein an exposed portion of the core wire not surrounded by the sheath passes through the first through-hole; and a first joining material interposed and sealed between an outer peripheral surface of the exposed portion and an inner peripheral surface of the first through-hole in the first through-hole.

An optical subassembly includes a planar dielectric waveguide structure that is deposited at temperatures below 400° C. The waveguide provides low film stress and low optical signal loss. Optical and electrical devices mounted onto the subassembly are aligned to planar optical waveguides using alignment marks and stops. Optical signals are delivered to the submount assembly via optical fibers. The dielectric stack structure used to fabricate the waveguide provides cavity walls that produce a cavity, within which optical, optoelectronic, and electronic devices can be mounted. The dielectric stack is deposited on an interconnect layer on a substrate, and the intermetal dielectric can contain thermally conductive dielectric layers to provide pathways for heat dissipation from heat generating optoelectronic devices such as lasers.
