ABSTRACT:
A connector affixed to the end of a cable of optical fibers and having alignment pins extending axially in parallel with the cable and beyond the end thereof. A substrate with alignment holes and light transmitting openings therethrough in axial alignment with the ends of the optical fibers when the alignment pins and holes are engaged. The substrate including mounting pads, electrical connection pins and electrical traces connecting the pads to the pins. A semiconductor die, with photonic devices thereon, mounted on the mounting pads of the substrate so that each photonic device is aligned with a light transmitting opening and electrically connected to the electrical connection pins. A sleeve surrounding and securing the connector to the mounting member.
