ABSTRACT:
A junction block for end-to-end interconnection of two optical fibers, said block comprising two identical parts (1) assembled face-to-face and forming a block having a fiber-receiving duct (13) passing therethrough, said duct being built up from two half ducts each running along a corresponding one of said parts, said duct being suitable for receiving two fibers inserted into respective ends thereof, and for positioning the cores of said two fibers in end-to-end alignment inside a mid guide portion thereof (13E), and for holding said fibers in place by clamping their respective coatings inside two retaining members (13B1, 13B2) of the duct which are located adjacent to respective ends thereof and each of which is constituted by two half-members which are resiliently separable to enable a fiber to be connected to pass therethrough in order to properly position the core of said fiber for interconnection with the core of the other fiber.
