ABSTRACT:
A coupler for coupling in the same manner any one of a plurality of optical signal transmission lines to all of the other transmission lines. The coupler comprises at least three elongated frusto-conical shaped arms of transparent material coupled together by their minor bases through a connecting medium and connected by their major bases to end faces of optical transmission lines respectively. The base diameters and the axial length of these arms are determined such that each minor base has a hemispherical radiation pattern given the numerical aperture of the associated transmission line.
