ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to electrical connector parts for housing optoelectronic transducers and to optical connector parts for housing terminal portions of a fiber optic light guide. The prior art provides connectors of this type but they are either permanently connected or they require critical alignment each time the connector parts are assembled. The present invention overcomes this problem by providing an optoelectronic connector assembly comprising an electrical connector part having a front end portion, an optical connector part having a front end portion adapted to engage with the front end portion of said electrical connector part, an optoelectronic transducer, device for firmly supporting said transducer within said electrical connector part so that said transducer faces the front end of said electrical connector part, an optical fiber having material of light transmitting characteristics, and device for rigidly and firmly positioning a terminal end portion of said optical fiber within said optical connector part so that the end of said fiber faces the front end of said optical connector part, and wherein said latter device renders unnecessary any subsequent physical adjustment of said optical fiber with respect to said optical connector part.
