Abstract
An optical connection unit for the optically conducting connection of optical elements which conduct, receive or emit light is described. The optical connection unit comprises an optical transmission element which has at least one coupling surface for the optical coupling on at a coupling surface of one of the optical elements. Furthermore, the optical transmission element is designed as a spring element so that the coupling surface of the transmission element can be subjected to a bias force in the direction of the coupling surface of the optical element.
