Abstract
A combined fiber optic and electrical connector member is disclosed in which the metallic conductors of a cable coupled to the connector member extend through a hollow sleeve while the optical fibers of the cable are spirally wound around the sleeve in a flex chamber thereby reducing bend radiation losses through the fibers when the connector member is engaged with a mating connector member.
