OPTICAL CONDUCTORS Abstract of the Disclosure An optical busbar, for optically interconnecting electronic and/or photonic equipment, comprises a rod of light- transmissive material, for example polycarbonate, having a longitudinal planar surface. Preferably the rod is of polygonal cross-sectional shape. Distributed along its length, opposite the planar surface, the rod has a plurality of inclined reflector surfaces for diverting light travelling along the rod so that it emerges laterally. When the rod is installed on a backplane of the equipment, the inclined reflector surfaces register with a corresponding plurality of circuit cards projecting from the backplane. The optical busbar will, of course, function with the light travelling in the opposite direction, i.e. transmitted from the circuit card and reflected to travel along the length of the busbar.
