Abstract: The invention relates to an optical connector assembly for connecting optical waveguides to electro-optical components, in particular for producing multimedia connections in motor vehicles, for example in accordance with the MOST® standard.

Abstract: The invention relates to a connector for establishing multi media connections in vehicles according to MOST®-standard. The objective is to provide an optical connector, which is simple, quick and inexpensive to manufacture, providing an optical connection with low damping, high precision and durability. The MOST-connector comprises at least one optical terminal with a fiber receiving sleeve, wherein the optical fiber section is located, wherein the optical fiber section is affixed directly to the fiber receiving sleeve through clamping elements. According to the invention the fiber receiving sleeve comprises a front side in the area of the front optical contact surface of the optical fiber section, wherein the clamping elements or latching notches are longitudinally spaced from the front side of the fiber receiving sleeve.

Abstract: A simple, effective and inexpensive method produces an optical connection on an optical component. A waveguide section, a sleeve for enclosing the waveguide section and an optical component, which has a receptacle for the waveguide section and the sleeve, are provided. The waveguide section is inserted with the first end face into the receptacle of the component and is only cut to length after insertion, while it is mounted on the component. The front end face of the waveguide section is milled away in a centered, spherical concave form.
