Abstract

A device comprising a molded optical structure (MOS) connected to optical fibers. The device includes optical paths through the MOS. Each optical path comprises a first section and a second section. The first section is adjacent the optical fibers. The device comprises a first lens positioned at a first end of the first section, and a second lens positioned at a second end of the second section. The device comprises a reflector positioned in the optical path. The reflector reflects light in a direction approximately orthogonal to a direction from which the light is received.
