  • FIELD TERMINATED FIBER OPTIC AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTION DEVICE
    Publication number: 20130022318
    Abstract: A modified communication cable and terminal connector provides an effective combination to accommodate the transmission of signals over fiber optic conductors. The terminal connector includes a light transmitter, a light receiver and interface circuitry such that the connector exchanges signals over electrical conductors. The connector receives and engages fiber optic conductors and an alignment ferrule completes a connection with a fixed lens of the transmitter or receiver. The particular arrangement requires cleaving of the fiber optic conductors but avoids steps such as polishing and gluing.
