Abstract
A low profile, sleeve form bushing is cast from metal and provides a coupling for an optical cable and a photoelectric element which is plugged into one end of the bushing and held in place with a press-on retention plate. A slotted flange on the bushing receives the rim of an inverted metal receptacle, placed over the photoelectric element to serve as a shielding cover at one end of the bushing. The other end of the bushing is of sleeve form, externally threaded to receive a threaded cap of a resilient ferrule connector.
