Abstract
An optoelectrical guide/conductor system is provided that includes an optoelectrical guide/conductor arrangement and an at least regionally electrically conductive adapter sleeve. The arrangement has an optical waveguide with an outer, organic sheath layer and a conductive layer. The conductive layer is a single layer or a sequence of layers, which is directly or indirectly on the outer sheath layer. The sleeve mechanically embraces the arrangement and electrically contacts the conductive layer such that the adapter sleeve is insertable into a connection mount, arranged e.g. on a handpiece, for transmitting optical and/or electrical signals through the conductive layer.
