  • Transceiver
    Publication number: 20040028350
    Abstract: A transceiver comprises a conductor foil carrying an opto-electronic component, and a plug socket into which an optical waveguide plug connector can be inserted such that the optical waveguide of the optical waveguide plug connector is opposite the opto-electronic component. An plug section is formed by an end section of the conductor foil and is adapted to be connected with a complementary plug. The signal path from said plug section to said opto-electronic component has a matched impedance.
