Arrangement for optical coupling of a waveguide with an optical unit of an optical module and coupling element for such an arrangement

A coupling lens (6) has a hole (43) and a beam-shaping component integrated on the side of the coupling lens facing an optical unit (1). The coupling lens is arranged in relation to optical module with a second axis of symmetry (420) coinciding with optical axis (10). First and second axes of symmetry (410,420) extend parallel to each other, and have second offset equal to first offset. A reference geometry defines the first axis of symmetry (410). The optical module comprises the optical lens having optical axis along which light is transmitted or received. The optical axis is offset from the first axis of symmetry by first offset. The hole of the coupling lens is delimited by an inner surface (42) that defines the second axis of symmetry. An independent claim is also included for a coupling component of optical coupling arrangement.
