Abstract

An optical communication system comprises : - a daughter optical circuit board (3) having an embedded optical layer (6), - a mother optical circuit board (2), having an embedded optical layer (10), - an optical coupling system having :⋅ a first optical interface (18) optically coupled to a first optical interface of the daughter circuit board, and ⋅ a second optical interface (19) optically coupled to a first optical interface of the mother circuit board. The optical coupling system comprises an optical coupling device (17), formed as an integral part of translucent material comprising light beam forming structures (22;27), fixed to the daughter board.
