ABSTRACT:
The electro-optical device has a housing and an electro-optical composite component. The composite component has an electro-optical basic component, in particular a photodiode, a laser diode, or an LED, into which light can be injected and/or from which light can be emitted. In order to be able to manufacture the housing for the electro-optical basic component in the most cost-effective way possible, there is provided a guide sleeve for the electro-optical composite component. The guide sleeve is connected to the basic component and it guides a plug with a ferrule of an optical waveguide. When the ferrule is plugged into the guide sleeve, the optical waveguide is optically coupled to the basic component.
