Abstract

L'invention concerne un ensemble de guide et de connecteur établissant une connexion transmettant les signaux optiques entre les extrémités de deux fibres optiques uniques. Il comporte une pièce de guidage constituée par des tiges de verre disposées côte à côte et parallèlement, et soudées ensemble de manière à former un canal. Les extrémités du canal sont ouvertes et peuvent recevoir chacune l'extrémité d'une fibre optique. L'invention s'applique notamment aux télécommunications optiques.A guide and connector assembly provides a connection for transmitting optical signals between the ends of two single optical fibers. It comprises a guide part formed by glass rods arranged side by side and parallel, and welded together so as to form a channel. The ends of the channel are open and can each receive the end of an optical fiber. The invention applies in particular to optical telecommunications.
