ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a position-fixing arrangement for use in printed circuit boards, preferably for mechanically determining the position of optical couplers. According to the invention, hollow cylinders are contained in a printed circuit board, parallel to the surface of the same. Said hollow cylinders are opened with a slit that is cut in from the surface and the inner wall of the cylinders fixes positioning pins of the couplers in place. The invention also relates to a corresponding production process.
