Means are provided for transferring light between an optical fibre (3) housed within a fibre management unit (T) and an optical device (13) external to the fibre management unit. The transfer means comprises an aperture (5) formed in the fibre management unit (T), a mandrel (6) mounted in the fibre management unit adjacent to the aperture and positioned so that the optical fibre (3) lies between the mandrel and the aperture, and a probe (P) housing the optical device (13). The probe (P) is provided with an optical head (9) in optical communication with the optical device (13), and with means (7, 8) for moving the optical head (9) into the aperture (5) so as to deform the optical fibre (3) against the mandrel (6) sufficiently to permit light to be tapped between the optical fibre and the optical head.
Moyen de transfert de lumière entre une fibre optique (3) logée dans une unité de gestion de fibre (T) et un dispositif optique (13) extérieur à l'unité de gestion de fibre. Comprend une ouverture (5) formée dans l'unité de gestion de fibre (T), un mandrin (6) monté dans l'unité de gestion de fibre au voisinage de l'ouverture et positionné de façon que la fibre optique (3) soit entre le mandrin et l'ouverture, et une sonde (P) logeant le dispositif optique (13). La sonde (P) est dotée d'une tête optique (9) en communication optique avec le dispositif optique (13), et de moyens (7, 8) permettant de déplacer la tête optique (9) dans l'ouverture (5) de manière à déformer la fibre optique (3) contre le mandrin (6) suffisamment pour permettre de prélever la lumière entre la fibre optique et la tête optique.
