ABSTRACT:
A screening arrangement is provided for attachment to the rear of a connector having one or more poles for receiving an optical fibre. The screening arrangement comprises a conductive housing and a conductive sleeve for the or each optical fibre. The or each conductive sleeve is electrically connected to the conductive housing and acts as a waveguide attenuator. The conductive housing is closed, for instance by transverse plates, about the conductive sleeve or sleeves so as to form a Faraday cage on the rear of the connector pierced only by the waveguide attenuators.
