CROSSOVER ARRANGEMENT FOR OPTICAL CONDUCTORS Abstract of the Disclosure A crossover arrangement for optical conductors, each in the form of a rod of light-transmissive material, includes a multifaceted, e.g. polyhedral member having pairs of mutually parallel opposed facets. Each pair of facets extend in a direction transverse, preferably perpendicular, to that in which a second pair of facets extend. The end face of each optical conductor is abutted against one of the facets of the polyhedron. Each facet has a coating of a material having a lower refractive index than that of the polyhedron or the optical conductors. Light entering the polyhedron from one conductor passes across the polyhedron and into the opposite conductor, being constrained to stay within the polyhedron by the coatings on the side facets. Preferably the polyhedron member is a cube and the optical conductors are of square cross-sectional shape.
