The present invention relates to an optical link, comprising an optical converter circuit (16) having an optoelectronic device (18) and circuitry (20) connected to the optoelectronic device (18). The optoelectronic device (18) has a plurality of individual optoelectronic segments (18a-18i). The optical link further comprises an elongated optical guide (14) having a single optical fiber optically connected at a first end to the optoelectronic device (18) and configured to transmit light away from the optoelectronic device (18), wherein the individual optoelectronic segments (18a-18i) have different positions relative to the first end of the optical fiber so that light beams emitted by the optoelectronic segments (18a-18i) are coupled into the optical fiber under different angles. The optoelectronic device (18) is configured to receive from the circuitry (20) on at least some of the segments (18a-18i) a plurality of data streams and optically send the plurality of data streams as spatially diverse data streams into the optical guide (14). The optical link further comprises a photo detector arrangement (28) optically connected to a second end of the optical guide (14) and having a plurality of photo detector segments (28a-28i) arranged to optically receive the plurality of data streams from the optoelectronic device (18), and a processing unit (30) associated with the photo detector arrangement (28) and configured to extract the plurality of data streams from the photo detector arrangement (28).
