Abstract
An optical adaptor for mounting to a receptacle to optically couple connectorized optical cables comprises an assembly of an optical interface to provide an optical path between a first and a second one of the connectorized optical cables to optically couple the first and the second connectorized optical cable. The optical adaptor further comprises a mounting element formed as a hollow body to mount the assembly of the optical interface. The assembly of the optical interface is configured to be insertable in the hollow body of the mounting element. The mounting element is configured to mechanically couple the first connectorized optical cable to the mounting element so that the first connectorized optical cable is optically coupled to the optical path.
