ABSTRACT:
Efficient coupling of light between an active device such as a light emitting diode having a focused light output and a ferruled optical fiber is provided by a receptacle having an adapter for increasing the diameter of the ferrule to that of the active device. The active device is concentrically and resiliently mounted at the end of the adapter, with the resilient mounting including a resilient bushing to accommodate variation in the size of the can housing the active device. The resilient bushing serves to center the can on the central axis of the adapter such that when a ferruled optical fiber is inserted into the adapter the optical fiber is coaxially aligned with and spaced from the active device.
