[0002] Such a connector assembly is disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example. In Patent Document 1, with respect to the plug connector ("connector 1" in Patent Document 1), the optical fiber cable used for optical signal transmission is connected so as to extend and protrude from the plug connector in one direction (rearward). The optical signal transmitted by the above-mentioned optical fiber cable is converted into an electric signal by a light-receiving element as a photoelectric conversion element built in the above-mentioned plug connector. In this plug connector, in addition to the photoelectric conversion element described above, a driving device for driving the photoelectric conversion...
