    Abstract: A construction kit is used for constructing a hybrid cable including an optical fiber, and a plurality of wires disposed in the circumferential direction around the optical fiber. Each of the wires includes a lead wire and a coating layer that coats the lead wire. The construction kit includes a first round hole into which the optical fiber can be inserted; a first member including receiving portions capable of receiving the wires, and a second member capable of being disposed outside the first member. A plurality of receiving portions is disposed in the circumferential direction around the first round hole. The second member is capable of pressurizing the wires toward the first round hole while the receiving portions receive the wires. The second member includes a plurality of pressure terminals having conductivity.

    Abstract: A connector member is configured to be optically connected to an optical cable and to be connected to an output device-side connector that fixes an output device-side end portion of the optical cable. The connector member includes a laser diode (photoelectric conversion portion) configured to receive and emit an optical signal; a flexible light guide tube configured so that one end portion of the light guide tube is optically connected to the laser diode via an optical path conversion member, and so that the other end portion of the light guide tube is optically connected to the optical cable; and a connector that fixes the other end portion of the light guide tube. The connector member is configured to be connected to the output device-side connector. The connector is capable of relative movement with respect to the laser diode.

    Abstract: A connector includes an optical fiber and a case, and converts an optical signal input from the optical fiber into an electrical signal and outputs the electrical signal, or converts an input electrical signal into an optical signal and outputs the optical signal to the optical fiber. The case has a wall into which the optical fiber is inserted. The rear wall has an upper end and a lower end facing each other with a space therebetween so that the optical fiber intervenes in the space. The case includes an upper protruding wall protruding in the front-rear direction and a lower protruding wall protruding in the front-rear direction. Between the upper free end of the upper protruding wall and the lower free end of the lower protruding wall, a first space is defined so the optical fiber can freely move in the width direction.

    Abstract: An optical cable laying construction set (X) that includes an optical cable (C1) and plugs (P1 and P2). The optical cable (C1) includes an optical fiber which is a refractive index distribution-type plastic optical fiber. The plug (P1) includes a connecting portion connectable to the optical fiber, and an electric connector connectable to an external device, and has a configuration for converting an electric signal into an optical signal. The plug (P2) includes a connecting portion connectable to the optical fiber, and an electric connector connectable to an external device, and has a configuration for converting an optical signal to an electric signal. In an optical cable laying construction method of the present invention, laying construction of the optical cable on site is carried out using the optical cable laying construction set (X).
