Zusammenfassung:A method of inspecting a fibre receptacle 22, comprising directing electromagnetic radiation from a source 45 to the receptacle and receiving using a sensor 62 at a fixed location relative to an axis of the receptacle, the electromagnetic radiation from the receptacle. Also, a fibre receptacle inspection apparatus comprising plural sensors 54, 56 that are directed towards a common axis and arranged at different respective orientations relative to the common axis. Also, a system comprising a processing station for manufacturing or processing a fibre receptacle, and a fibre receptacle inspection apparatus at a fixed location relative to the processing station, wherein the fibre receptacle inspection apparatus comprises an EM source to direct radiation to the receptacle, and a sensor to receiver the radiation from the receptacle. The radiation may be directed from an external source through a wall of the receptacle to be received by a sensor of the other side.
