ABSTRACT:
The header comprises: a plurality of optical connector supports (3) each having an elongate body in the form of a hollow finger (30) which is equipped at one end with an optical connector member (31) for interconnecting a pair of connection end fittings, and on one side with a coil former (32) for receiving the single fiber (55) of said cable (5) which has its end fitting (56) connected inside said finger to said connector member (31); and a magazine (1) comprising a plurality of individual cavities (10) for each of said optical connector supports (3) whose connector members constitute optical accesses to the individual fibers of said cable, said accesses being available in a "front" face (1C) of said magazine. It thus becomes possible to make optical connections to any of the individual fibers without affecting links passing via connections made to any of the other fibers.
