abstract = "EP0977063; JP2000098180;US6318901; US2002050561 It is an object of the present invention to disclose a socket that is easy in use for optoelectrical interconnection. The socket of the invention can be handled as a compact device that allows the interconnection between electrical signals and external apparatus for transmitting the optical signals, preferably via a high density of optical channels. The socket of the invention has features and markers for attachment and alignment of optical transfer media such as optical fibers, optical fiber bundles and optical imaging fiber bundles. The alignment features and markers allow to align the optical transfer media to the connection for electrical signals. The markers can be integrated in or can be provided on a fiber optic face plate substrate forming part of the socket.",
