Zusammenfassung: | This invention relates to an optoelectronic cable assembly which utilizes standard connector elements as part of the termination assemblies. Mounted in each termination assembly are a plurality of termination elements each of which is adapted to have a fiber optic light conducting cable secured therein. An active optoelectronic device is mounted in a suitable mounting means in each of the termination elements and contact means are attached at one end through the mounting means to make electrical contact with the active device. The contacts project at the other end for connection to external elements. The mounting means is supported by a suitable means in the bore of the element body. A lens or other suitable device is mounted in front of the device for transmitting light between the device and the cable. The assembly design, particularly that for the termination assembly containing a light emitting device, is specially designed for dissipating heat from the device. |
