Abstract
The invention in certain embodiments relates to a spliced connection between first and second optical fibres, each of which has a fibre core and fibre cladding resting against said core. In said connection, the fibre cladding of at least one of the two fibres is completely removed in a connection region that extends for a predetermined length from the spliced end of the respective fibre in the longitudinal direction of the fibre and said connection is provided with a support sleeve, in which the spliced ends of the two fibres are located and which extends at least along the entire connection region of the first fibre and beyond, over the fibre cladding of the first fibre. The section of the support sleeve that extends over the fibre cladding of the first fibre does not rest against the fibre cladding of the first fibre and said sleeve is mechanically connected to the fibre core of the first fibre in the connection region of said first fibre, either directly or by means of an intermediate sleeve.
