A fiber optic cable for connecting at least one optical transmitter to at least one optical sensor in an electronic assembly, the fiber optic cable comprising: a first surface layer; a second surface layer, the first and second surface layers being in stacked parallel plane relation; a resin layer, the first surface layer and the second surface layer being bonded together by the resin layer; at least one fiber optic filament, each fiber optic filament being embedded in the resin layer in a predetermined pattern; means for terminating each respective fiber optic filament to facilitate optically coupling each respective optical transmitter to a respective optical sensor; the first surface layer, the second surface layer, the resin layer and the fiber optic filament being laminated forming a relatively flat ribbon cable having a cross section relatively free of voids; whereby the fiber optic cable is formed as a relatively thin, flexible, flat layer facilitating installation in an electronic assembly.
