Patent attributes
An optical transmitting and/or receiving arrangement including an optical element mounted in an intermediate space between a base plate and a lens. The lens is supported by a structure that is mounted on the base plate, and a carrier element mounted on the base plate and has an end portion extending through an opening formed in the structure and into the intermediate space. The end portion of the carrier element is positioned adjacent to the optical element, and includes electrical feed lines that are connected to the optical element by wires or bands. A transparent casting compound is then injected through the opening into the intermediate space.
