CONNECTION MEANS FOR OPTICAL FIBRES

摘要

The present invention relates to an optical connection means arranged in order to rearrange and connect optical fibres connected to the connection means. In order to simplify handling of optical fibre ribbons, so-called fibre ribbons, an optical connection means with an integrated cross-connection (2) has been produced with which component optical fibres (3) connected to the component can be rearranged such as cross-connected and connected via an interface (4). With an optical cross-connection of the "sidings" type integrated with a so-called MT-connector interface from for example a four-fibre transmitter array and a four-fibre receiver array an eight-fibre MT-connector interface with alternate transmitter respective receiver fibres next to each other can be obtained.
