ABSTRACT:
A branch connector for light waveguides which utilizes a beam divider mirror characterized by a carrier member aligning a pair of light waveguides on a common axis, a beam divider which is arranged on a plane slanted to the common axis on an angle which is larger than 45 degrees and is positioned between the ends of the waveguides and flush therewith and a second carrier plate mounting an additional waveguide adjacent one of the pair of aligned waveguides on a second axis extending at an angle to the common axis and intersecting the common axis at the beam divider mirror with the second axis being oriented to receive light reflected along the given direction.
