A fibre optic module includes a connector 32 connected to a mother board of a host computer, a semiconductor IC (not shown) for converting serial data received from the mother board to an electric signal suitable for a laser diode (LD), an LD module 50 for converting the electric signal to an optical signal, a photodiode (PD) module 40 for converting an optical signal to an electric signal, a second semiconductor IC (not shown) for converting the electric signal to serial data. The connector 32, the two semiconductor IC's, LD module 50, PD module 40, and two electrical shielding plates 51 and 41, are all mounted on a circuit board 30. These components are held in place by a first frame 10 and a second frame 20. The data transmission rate of the optical signal may be 200 Mbits/s or more. |
