ABSTRACT:
An electronic circuit card (4) is matable with a connector (3). The connector (3) comprises a terminal block (4) having terminals (22) connected to conductors (24) of a circuit board (26). First opto-electrical interface modules (15) encapsulated into the block (4), cooperate with second opto-electrical interface modules encapsulated into the leading margin (42) of the card (4) to connect the circuit (40) of the board (4) to the conductors (24) of the circuit board (26), when the card (4) has been mated with the connector (3).
