The junction block further comprises a single groove (12A) opening onto the opposite surface and a support member (13A) and a sealing member (14A) superposed one on the other in the groove. The support members and the sealing members each have a channel aligned with each channel of the junction block, to accommodate respective optical fibers (4) to connect to the opto-electronic components. Each fiber which is fitted with a terminal (5) with a collar (5') intermediate its ends. A metal sleeve (17A) with resilient longitudinal tongues (18A) is fitted in each channel of the support member to lock the fiber in position by snap-action engagement of the tongues under the collar.
