Abstract
The invention relates to an electro-optical module for transmitting and/or receiving optical signals on at least two optical data channels which are carried in an optical waveguide. The optical waveguide in the module forms at least two optical waveguide sections, with each section having at least one inclined end surface. The inclined end surfaces of the optical waveguide sections are positioned axially one behind the other. Light is injected into or light is output from the optical waveguide for a specific optical data channel by light for the optical data channel being passed to an inclined end surface, or emerging from it, at an angle to the optical axis of the optical waveguide.
