OPTICAL-ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR HAVING INPROVED HEAT SINK

摘要

An optical-electrical connector (100) having an end for mating with an electrical connector and an opposite end coupling with an optical medium, includes a thermal conductive shell (10), a printed circuit board assembly (20) received in the thermal conductive shell, and an optical-electrical module (50). The printed circuit board assembly includes a printed circuit board (21) including a thermal conductive layer (214) thermal conductively connected with the metal shell. The optical-electrical module is mounted on the printed circuit board and is in contact with the thermal conductive layer, heat produced by the optical-electrical module being transmitted to the thermal conductive shell by the thermal conductive layer.
