Abstract:
    An electronic-component connector that forms a secure detachable connection and is packaged in a small space even when the electronic component is a module or other component that is linked to an optical waveguide or other signal transfer member, and transmits and receives a signal such as an optical signal via the transfer member. An optical waveguide extends from a first side of a module that is connected to the connector. The connector body of the electronic-component connector has an open portion for accommodating a module inserted from the open side. A socket contact portion for contacting a connection terminal of the module is provided to the open portion. A lead-out path is formed in the shape of a groove in the connector body that is communicated with the open portion, and leads out the optical waveguide from the connector body. A cover member is attached to the connector body so as to be able to open and close, and the member secures the module inside the open portion.
