ABSTRACT:
An optical short-circuit plug for short-circuiting two optical units, especially a sender and receiver unit of a sender/receiver module, includes a short-circuit optical waveguide having ends. Two separate plug pins each accommodate a respective one of the ends of the short-circuit optical waveguide for coupling to an optical unit. Jackets of elastic material each at least partially surround a respective one of the plug pins, for displaceably supporting the plug pins upon elastic deformation of the jackets, in order to generate a defined contact pressure and equalize tolerances.
