Development of optical multi-channel connector for rigid waveguide — Fiber optical interconnection

25-Gb/s Operation of a Polymer Optical Waveguide on an Electrical Hybrid LSI Package Substrate With Optical Card Edge Connector

“…Thus, the multimode link had a large lateral misalignment tolerance at 1.3 m. An optical card edge connector that connects the polymer optical waveguide array to the multimode fiber array undergoes a connection loss in the lateral offset [15][16][17][18][19]. The optical card edge connector is a very important component of the optical ° ° electrical hybrid package substrate.…”
