ABSTRACT:
According to the invention, the process consists of using plastics optical fibres obtained by drawing, the introduction of one of the ends of said fibres into recesses formed for this purpose in mechanical connecting parts, raising the temperature of said ends in order to increase their diameter until they fill said recesses and adapt closely to the internal surface shape of these recesses. It makes it possible to join the ends of optical fibres to centering terminations used for the fitting in the connectors and for producing multiplexing connectors.
