Abstract
An opto-electric transformation connector is provided, which can be used, as if it were an electric connector, without consideration of optical transmission of devices connected therewith, in a connecting system for connecting different devices by means of optical fibers. The connector includes an electronic circuit board, on which not only a light emitting element for transmitting optical signals and a light receiving element for receiving optical signals are disposed, but also a driving circuit for driving the light emitting element and an amplifier circuit for amplifying the light signals received by the light receiving element are mounted.
