An optical interconnect is formed from a series of coaxially aligned lenses. The lenses are spaced apart along a planar substrate (1) and form repeated images of an optical array (9) at the input to the interconnect. Output ports are located at different points along the interconnect. Each of the pair of lenses enclosing one of the repeated images is formed as a single physically integral member (3). This member (3) may take the form of a transparent rod having spherical end surfaces. Each of the spherical end surfaces then provides one of the pair of lenses. |
