Abstract
An opto-electric hybrid board includes an electric circuit board in which electric wiring is formed on a front surface of an insulating layer, and an optical waveguide formed on the rear side of the electric circuit board. The optical waveguide and the electric circuit board are arranged so that left and right edges of the electric circuit board along a longitudinal direction of the optical waveguide overlap with left and right edges of the optical waveguide when viewed from above, or so that the left and right edges of the electric circuit board are on the inside of where the left and right edges of the optical waveguide are located. The opto-electric hybrid board is easy to handle owing to the reduced chance of the electric circuit board being damaged. The opto-electric hybrid board also does not cause misalignment of a core when used as a connector.
