ABSTRACT:
A connected fiber optic electrical or avionics system is disclosed. The system includes a line replaceable unit (LRU), such as an avionics primary flight display LRU, adapted for insertion into a chassis such as an airframe. An LRU connector coupled to the LRU and adapted for mating with a chassis connector plug includes an active optoelectronic device mounted therein for operatively coupling to an optical termination in the chassis connector plug. Inclusion of the active optoelectronic device in the LRU connector eliminates the need for the active optoelectronic device to be mounted on a printed circuit board, as well as the need for a fiber pigtail connecting the connector and the printed circuit board.
