The hybrid connector 1 is completed through first to third assembling steps. The first assembling step inserts sleeves 7, 7 into cylindrical holders 19, 19 until a half insertion state thereof. The second assembling step presses optical element modules 8, 9 against the sleeves 7, 7, which further inserts the sleeves 7, 7 into the cylindrical holders 19, 19, so that the sleeves 7, 7 are completely received in the cylindrical holders 19, 19. The second assembling step assembles simultaneously the sleeves 7, 7 and the optical element modules 8, 9 into the connector. This provides an effective assembling work thereof. The third assembling step causes a shield case 10 to hold the optical element modules 8, 9, while the shield case 10 engages with the cylindrical holders 19, 19. <IMAGE> |
