Patent ID: 8534929

Claim:
An optical fiber connector, comprising: an optical fiber cable including a first optical fiber and a second optical fiber; and a connector plug fixedly connected to a distal end of the optical fiber cable, the connector plug comprising: a metallic shell; a circuit board fully housed in the metallic shell; a photodiode, a laser diode and an electrical connector all directly mounted on the circuit board in the metallic shell, the photodiode optically coupled to the first optical fiber and configured for receiving and converting a first light signal from the first optical fiber into a first electrical signal, the laser diode optically coupled to the second optical fiber and configured for converting a second electrical signal to a second light signal and sending the second light signal to the second optical fiber, the electrical connector for electrical connection to an electronic device and configured for generating the second electrical signal and receiving the first electrical signal; and a light reflecting surface defined on an outer surface of a reflection lens, each of the photodiode and the laser diode being optically coupled to the corresponding optical fiber by means of the light reflecting surface.
