发明名称 Optical fiber connector and optical fiber coupling assembly having same
摘要 An optical fiber connector includes a body and a photoelectric conversion module received in the body. The photoelectric conversion module includes a base, a light emitting unit, a light receiving unit, and a light coupling block. The light emitting unit and the light receiving unit are fixed on the base. The light coupling blocks are formed on the base and are arranged over the light emitting unit and the light receiving unit. The light emitting unit is configured for emitting light to the light coupling block in a first direction. The light coupling block is configured for reflecting the light from the light emitting unit to a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The light receiving unit is configured for receiving light emitting from the light coupling block in a direction opposite to the first direction.
