A high resolution interferometer (60cm maximum path difference) for use from the visible region to 5μm has been designed and manufactured at Meudon Observatory to be part of the instrumentation of the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. The considerations which led to the choice of the interferometer being operated at the Cassegrain focus, and the design features which allow this to be achieved, are outlined.
