Abstract[English] A high-density optical connector for demountable coupling to an external component is provided. The optical connector includes a fiber block including a front surface, a back surface and passages extending from the back surface towards the front surface. Each passage is configured to receive an optical fiber. A carrier is attached to the front surface of the fiber block, including a plurality of elastic averaging features spaced apart from each other. The carrier includes a plurality of first lenslets arranged in a first planar array. The elastic averaging features are arranged in a second planar array interspersed among the first lenslets.[French] L'invention concerne un connecteur optique haute densité pour un couplage démontable à un composant externe. Le connecteur optique comprend un bloc de fibres comprenant une surface avant, une surface arrière et des passages s'étendant de la surface arrière vers la surface avant. Chaque passage est configuré pour recevoir une fibre optique. Un support est fixé à la surface avant du bloc de fibres, comprenant une pluralité d'éléments de moyennage élastiques espacés les uns des autres. Le support comprend une pluralité de premières lentilles agencées en un premier réseau plan. Les éléments de moyennage élastiques sont agencés en un second réseau plan intercalés parmi les premières lentilles.
