A protective system for optical components, including a container, at least one optical component fixed inside said container, a length of optical fiber which has a plastic coating and is connected to said at least one optical component, and, an optical feedthrough for said length of fiber, placed in a feedthrough hole in a wall of said container and hermetically fixed therein, said optical feed through comprising an elongated body which has a longitudinal feedthrough hole into which said optical fiber can be placed, and, a portion of said length of fiber being stripped of said coating, wherein said portion of fiber which is stripped of the coating is soldered to one end of said elongated body by means of a metallic solder, such soldering in a surface portion around said portion of fiber being coated with a layer of a polymeric sealant. The polymeric sealant can be an epoxy resin, an acrylic resin, or a silicon resin.
