Abstract

Eine Ferrule für Lichtwellenleiter umfaßt ein Steckergehäuse (31), das in einer Einsteckrichtung (32) mit einem weiteren Steckergehäuse zusammensteckbar ist. Das Steckergehäuse (31) hat wenigstens einen Aufnahmebereich (38) zur Aufnahme eines Mehrfach-Lichtwellenleiters und ist aus thermoplastischem Kunststoff gefertigt, dem längliche Füllstoffpartikel (47) beigemengt sind. Zumindest in einer Umgebung des Aufnahmebereichs (38) sind die Füllstoffpartikel (47) so angeordnet, daß ihre Längserstreckungsrichtung wenigstens teilweise quer zur Einsteckrichtung (32) verläuft. In einem weiteren Ausführungsform weist das Steckergehäuse zwei Aufnahmebereiche zur Aufnahme zwei Mehrfach-Lichtwellenleiter.
