ABSTRACT:
The method comprises an operation for the centering of the end of an optical fibre (8) with respect to an optical element which comprises an opto-electronic component (3). To this end, a magnetizable ring (7) is secured on the surface of a bottom plate (1) which is connected to the optical element, said ring being attracted, under the influence of a magnetic field, against a ferromagnetic bush (9) which is secured to the end of the fibre (8), said ring thus being positioned so that the light transmission efficiency is optimum and being retained in this position, after which the assembly is provided with an opaque plastics envelope.
