Claim:
1. An optoelectronic component for receiving light, the component comprising: a housing comprising an axially extending cavity arranged to receive an incoming beam; at least one adjustable arrangement comprising at least one lens, and a first adjustment module configured to adjust a focal point of said lens relative to an end surface of an optical fiber connectable to the housing; a first body supporting the lens and influencing a position of the lens; a second body contacting the first body and journalled about a point in the housing distant from the lens; wherein the first adjustment module is arranged to act on the first body remote from the second body, and to angularly adjust an axis of the first body in two orthogonal directions relative to an axis of the housing to rotate the first body spherically around a distant point to alter the position of said lens relative to the end surface of the optical fiber, in order to locate the focal point of the lens on the end surface of the optical fiber.
