ABSTRACT:
A method for fitting an optical fiber in an end fitting, the end fitting obtained constituting a connection device for connecting to another connecting device incorporating an optical fiber. A hollow cylindrical support whose lateral surface constitutes the reference surface for the position of the fiber is machined and the terminal portion of the fiber is coated with electrolytic gold deposit in the form of a frustum. Then the fiber is self-centered by force inserting the frustum and the terminal portion of the fiber which it covers in the hollow support. Levelling then occurs at the butting face of the fiber by sawing and/or grinding the projecting portions of both the frustum and fiber.
