A connection between an optical waveguide and an encapsulated optical receiver having a window. An encapsulation-end end element of the waveguide is introduced into a capillary-like collar secured on top of the window which is provided in the encapsulation. The end element is bonded in the collar, which is surrounded by an anti-kink protective sleeve that overlaps the edge of the encapsulation and is preferably composed of one piece of a shrink-fit hose. The sleeve is filled on the inside with a sealing compound in the vicinity of the collar. The resulting connection is particularly resistant and insensitive to changes in temperature, moisture, vibration and shock. |
