Zusammenfassung:Optical attenuation device. This device comprises at least one assembly which includes an optical fibre (14) in which the light is capable of being propagated, and means (8, 10, 16, 36) for applying at least one macro-bend to the fibre, this macro-bend enabling the intensity of the light to be attenuated. Application to fibre-optic transmissions. Dispositif d'atténuation optique. Ce dispositif comprend au moins un ensemble comportant une fibre optique (14), dans laquelle de la lumière est susceptible de se propager, et des moyens (8, 10, 16, 36) d'application d'au moins une macrocourbure à la fibre, cette macrocourbure permettant d'atténuer l'intensité de la lumière. Application aux transmissions par fibres optiques.
