ABSTRACT:
An optoelectronic system including an optoelectronic assembly for receiving and/or transmitting optical data signals, optic means for being optically coupled to the optoelectronic assembly, and an optical fiber coupling device for coupling the optic means and at least one of the optoelectronic devices which form part of the assembly. The coupling device includes a housing for being positioned adjacent the assembly relative to the optoelectronic device and, significantly, latching means movably positioned within the housing for initially engaging the optoelectronic device and thereafter for engaging the incoming optic means (e.g., optical fiber connector) when the optic means is positioned within the coupling device's housing. Keying and shutter means are also provided as part of the coupling device.
