Multiplexer or demultiplexer module

Abstract

Multiplexer or demultiplexer module has a carrier plate with at least one wavelength-selective element, at least two focussing elements, a waveguide, preferably a fibre optic cable, for the transmission of an optical signal, which has a signal output or input for coupling the optical signal in or out and collimation optics, which are arranged between signal output and a first wavelength-selective element. In a demultiplexer module, forces transmitted via the waveguide to the demultiplexer module are diverted such that passive adjustment of the optical elements is hardly influenced. The demultiplexer module is connected to a detector plate, can be adjusted with respect to detectors located on a detector plate, and has a high thermal tolerance. The carrier plate has a stop for the waveguide preferably configured integrally with the carrier plate, wherein the waveguide or a coating surrounding the waveguide rests on or is fastened, preferably adhered to the stop.
