Abstract
An AOC is provided that has an integrally-formed plastic optical port configured to be directly attached to an end of an optical fiber cable of the AOC without the need for an optical connector. The plastic optical port has an opening formed therein for receiving the end of the optical fiber cable. The AOC connector includes a plurality of electrical leads having proximal ends that are anchored in the plastic optical port and distal ends that extend away from the port. At least one optoelectronic device and at least one IC chip are mounted on one or more of the proximal ends of one or more of the leads. Bond wires electrically interconnect the optoelectronic device, the IC chip and one or more of the other leads. The optoelectronic device, the IC chip and the bond wires are encapsulated in the plastic optical port.
