Abstract
An optical connector ferrule, an optical connector, and a composite fiber connecting assembly are provided. The optical connector ferrule includes a stationary ferrule having a first through-hole, a composite fiber, and a connecting ferrule having a second through-hole. The composite fiber includes a first optical fiber and a signal wire, and is placed in the first through-hole in the stationary ferrule. The connecting ferrule includes a conductive path. The stationary ferrule has a second end face abutting a third end face of the connecting ferrule. The first optical fiber has an end connected to an end of the second through-hole. The signal wire and the conductive path are connected to each other.
