Abstract

An optical fiber network has at least two optical fibers (31) arranged for transmission of light signals along the fibers (31) containing data with a series of passive optical components (24/25) in the network connected to at least one of the fibers such as a fiber connector 9 for connection to a terminal and splice connectors (10, 13, 14) which are covered by a covering layer (21) of an opaque material (33) over the passive optical component (24) arranged to contain and/or absorb stray emissions from the light signals in order to inhibit eaves-dropping attempts. Splice trays (16) can be formed of opaque material (33) or can be enclosed by a separate covering formed from an opaque material (33).
