ABSTRACT:
A first optical fiber end is precisely aligned in the interstice between a plurality of relatively equal diameter cylindrical rods. The rods are of disparate lengths and the fiber as located in the interstice has its tip accurately aligned with respect to a reference surface of one of the rods. The alignment of the fiber in this manner permits a similar rod arrangement to interlock with the above described structure to enable a similarly supported fiber to be accurately positioned with respect to the first fiber due to the interlocking of the respective rod assemblies.
