Abstract
A shield cover is provided with urging components that urge a light guide in the direction in which the light guide is inserted into a receptacle body to prevent the light guide from making contact with a light emitting element and a light receiving element when a receptacle body mates with a shield cover. Even if the light guide does not completely mate with the receptacle body, the urging components make contact with the light guide before the light guide makes contact with the light emitting element and the light receiving element so that an urging force by the urging components make the light guide completely mate with the receptacle body.
