Abstract

A catheter system () for treating a treatment site () includes a catheter (), a system console () that includes a console connection aperture (), an energy source (), one or more energy guides (A) that receive energy from the energy source (), and an optoelectrical connector () that is coupled to the catheter (). The optoelectrical connector () includes a guide coupling housing () that retains at least a portion of each of the energy guides (A). The guide coupling housing () is configured to be selectively mechanically connected to the system console () via the console connection aperture () so that the energy guides (A) are adjustably aligned relative to the energy from the energy source (). The optoelectrical connector () also includes at least a portion of an electrical connector assembly that is positioned adjacent to the guide coupling housing () and that transmits at least one of power and data between the system console () and the catheter () when the guide coupling housing () is retained within the console connection aperture ().
