OPTICAL CONNECTOR, CABLE AND OPTICAL COMMUNICATION DEVICE Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC G02B6/42 

FIELD: physics; electrical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions refers to an interface for performing optical communication using an array of optical fibers. Optical connector, cable and optical communication device comprise: a lens configured to collect an incoming light signal in a light transmission path or a light detection unit; housing that holds several lenses and a light transmission path or a light detection unit and which is connected to an optical connector transmitting the side light. Fastening section is located in the direction of the arrangement of several lenses and is intended for fixing the casing to the optical connector of the transmitting side with the possibility of attaching and detaching. In this case, in several lenses, the input zone of the light signal collected in the light transmission path or the light detection unit is expanded in a direction perpendicular to the lens arrangement.

EFFECT: reliable optical communication.
